240V in a garage isn't kosher? Or is it the EV charging hardware that's the issue?



240 with an 60 amp breaker (I think...not electrician) isn't that hard to do on newer homes.

But that means you need a dedicated parking space. Some urban areas with street parking don't have that luxury.

check your electrical panel, do you really have capacity for an additional 60 amps. Most houses are designed for the major kitchen appliances and heating/Air, adding something that draws an additional 60amps aint feasible for most with out upgrading your electrical service. typical house panel is around 100-150 amps. unless while charging you don't run the AC or dry clothes
