All figures at a glance
How this ranking is made
This selection is put together automatically from the 82 models in our database that meet the criteria above. We only include models whose figures for the ranking are known: without those values a model cannot be compared fairly, so it drops out. The list is recalculated with every data update, so the order can change as soon as manufacturers or registers publish new values.
The order follows a data score from 0 to 100. For each feature we determine a model’s position relative to the other models in this selection: the best value counts as 100, the weakest as 0, and equal values share the same position. We add up those positions with weights: MID-certified meter 15 % · 1↔3 phase switching 15 % · Solar surplus charging 15 % · Dynamic load balancing 15 % · OCPP 15 % · ISO 15118 / Plug & Charge 5 % · 4G/LTE 5 % · Warranty 15 %. A feature that is unknown for a model does not count; if more than 40 per cent of the weight is missing, the model is left out. If two scores are equal, max. charging power (AC) decides.
The reasoning for each place is derived automatically from the same data. We name the features on which the model is in the best quarter of this selection, functions that not every model has, and a weaker point if the model falls in the bottom quarter on it. The line ‘Choose this model if …’ links the most heavily weighted strength to a situation where it matters. This is not a test and not personal advice: the installation, your home and the price also decide what works best for you.
The values come from manufacturers; the product page shows the source of every value. How we collect and check the data →
