Rapid growth in the global electric vehicle (EV) market has sparked extensive research, with charging time remaining a critical concern. This study presents a descriptive analysis of research publications on EV charging time from 2017 to April 2024, highlighting trends, characteristics, and global perspectives and identifying research gaps. Scopus, an extensively utilized and frequently cited bibliographic database among the global research community, served as the primary data source for this investigation. Based on the Scopus database, the analysis reveals a growing interest in optimizing charging times, with notable peaks and troughs in publication trends. Interdisciplinary collaboration is evident, with engineering, computer science, and energy research leading the field. Key thematic clusters focus on charging infrastructure, battery optimization, and integration with renewable energy sources. Research gaps and emerging areas include fast-charging technology, battery management systems, and grid integration. A future research roadmap suggests investigating fundamental charging mechanisms, developing intelligent charging systems, exploring socio-economic implications, and fostering international collaborations. While progress has been made, further research is needed to address challenges and drive innovation in EV charging technology for sustainable transportation solutions.
