When the car was new it had an on board charger, mine still has it and it works great! a 25 foot cord is kept behind the seat and when people see it for the first time in front of their house they ask if I want to plug it in, my boss when he found out it cost as much as 35 cents to charge it for an 8 hour day at work he offered to buy wire and an outlet so I could put another outlet in closer to where I park, alot of parking lots for apartment buildings have outlets for block heaters, these cars draw 500 watts while charging 1/3 as much as a common block heater.
