It really depends on the charging speed of the van. It will have a maximum speed it can accept charge. Could be as low as 11kw or as high as 300kw.
If you have a 50kwh battery, that could mean anywhere between 15 mins and 6 hours.
Use something like the ABRP app to find nearest chargers by type and Kw.
I spent today in my work's brand new E-van. It arrived with fuck all battery and I spent far more of my day than I would have liked fucking around trying to keep enough juice in it to keep it on the road! Any tips for getting as much charge as possible in a short space of time? Are there certain public charging stations that work better than others for topping up quickly? We're waiting on a charging station to be installed at our premises but that's looking like it'll take about a month to arrive.
