I am doing a project for school and in my investigation I must find out how much electricity is needed to charge an electric car. So if you could maybe give me an example, how much electricity would it take to charge it for just 1 hour? And how much would it cost?
 
no one really knows for sure yet. Its still under development. The real question is how long will it take to fully recharge. With current technology a fill up will take hours unlike the 2 or 3 minutes most of are use to with gas cars.
 
--You can use either use a 220 ac outlet or a 120 ac outlet. It all depends on Your car batteries. and as i have heard it takes from 2 - 4 hours for a full charge.
--You need to check with the company that are selling the electric cars and get that inof. from them.. There are still working on getting a good working car.. they aren't to reliable as of yet. I wouldn't buy one until they proof they work right.
