The integrated cable will only be capable of AC charging at speeds of up to 7.4kW, adding 200km of range in 4 hours and 10 minutes. If faster charging is needed, a separate DC charging port is available. The car will be available with either full-electric powertrains or conventional combustion engines with mild-hybrid assistance.
