11kW or 22kW Wallbox: What Is the Difference?

When buying a wallbox, one common question is whether an 11kW or 22kW charging output makes more sense.

The main difference is the maximum charging speed.

An 11kW wallbox is ideal for:

• Private households
• Overnight charging
• Most electric vehicles
• Lower grid load

A 22kW wallbox offers:

• Faster charging times
• More flexibility for multiple vehicles
• Higher charging capacity when the vehicle supports it

Please note that many vehicles charge with a maximum of 11kW AC even when connected to a 22kW wallbox. The available connection and local requirements should also be checked before installation.
