The official names for EV charging speeds have been changed to “modernise” them. What was once ‘slow’ charging (3kW to 7.9kW) is now known as ‘standard’, while the old ‘fast’ moniker (8kW to 49kW) has been changed to ‘standard plus’. Rapid (50kW to 149kW) and ultra-rapid (150kW+) ratings remain unchanged.
