Namely, the battery will have an usable capacity of 60 kWh, with the range that may reach 242-314 kilometers, according to the version. The new model can be charged via the CCS charging socket in the front left bumper. This also makes fast charging by means of direct current (DC) possible. Thanks to a standard charging power of a maximum of 50 kW, or optionally a maximum of 80 kW, the eVito can be charged from 10 to 80 percent at a DC fast charging station in about 50 or 35 minutes.
