Understanding Subaru EV Charging Levels
Level 1 Charging
Uses a standard 120-volt household outlet and can be useful for drivers with lighter daily charging needs.
Level 2 Charging
Uses a 240-volt charging setup and provides significantly faster charging for everyday use at home and at many public charging locations.
DC Fast Charging
Available at compatible public charging stations, DC fast charging can add a substantial amount of battery charge during a shorter stop and is especially useful during longer trips.
Charging Your Subaru EV at Home
Home charging can be one of the most convenient ways to own an electric vehicle. Current 2026 Subaru EVs include a Level 1/Level 2 charging cable that supports charging from a standard 120-volt outlet for Level 1 charging and a compatible 240-volt outlet for faster Level 2 charging.
If you plan to rely on home charging regularly, a properly installed Level 2 charging setup can provide significantly faster charging than a standard household outlet. Installation requirements vary by home and electrical system, so charging equipment should be installed according to applicable requirements by a qualified professional.
Using Public Charging Stations
Public charging can make it easier to recharge while running errands, commuting, or traveling beyond Fayetteville. Charging locations are available throughout Northwest Arkansas and along major travel routes.
For 2026, Subaru EVs are compatible with the North American Charging Standard, or NACS. This provides access to more than 25,000 Tesla Superchargers across the country in addition to other compatible public charging options.

How Long Does It Take to Charge a Subaru EV?
Charging time depends on the Subaru EV model, charging equipment, battery state of charge, battery temperature, outside temperature, and other conditions. Level 1 charging is the slowest option, while Level 2 charging provides faster charging that can work well for regular home use.
Current 2026 Subaru EVs also feature battery preconditioning technology designed to help maintain fast-charging performance in cold weather.
Planning Longer Road Trips
Long-distance EV travel is becoming more convenient as public charging networks continue to expand. NACS compatibility on 2026 Subaru EVs provides access to more than 25,000 Tesla Superchargers across the country.
