How do you charge an electric Smart Car?

I’ve seen the tiny Smart Cars on the road recently. They’re so tiny, they’re almost like remote control cars. There’s no way it's the same charger as a Tesla or electric SUV. I’m curious, how do you charge an electric car?

Charging an electric Smart Car is actually quite similar to charging any other EV. In fact, despite being so small, they use type 2 connectors just like Teslas, and many other EVs. The car is also equipped with a mode 3 onboard charger which will allow for super-quick charging at any public station or at home in less than 40 minutes.
The Wallbox charger is the specific system for smart box users. At a public station, charging is the same, you plug in your vehicle and you can take a coffee break. In fact, that’s what happens in the company’s own

. The Smart Car is small but mighty and the plus side to a smaller car is the quicker charging!
Charging your electric Smart Car shouldn’t be rocket science and choosing a great insurance plan shouldn’t be either.
