How long does it actually take to charge a battery and how far can you drive with it?

For an average car, the values below apply.

230V power supply power phases After 1 hour For 100km
2.3kW 10Amp 1f 11km 9h
3.7kW 16Amp 1f 17km 6h
11kWh 16Amp 3f 55km <2h
22kWh 32Amp 3f 110km <1h
Not every solution is applicable everywhere

In new construction but also in existing construction, you need to investigate what space is available electrically. Two aspects come into play here; firstly what can the energy supplier offer and; secondly how big is the space on the meter box.
But it much better to ascertain what space you actually need. In fact, there is no need to maximise charging for all cars at the same time.
How many cars can you charge in a night and how much energy do you need to do that?
Below is a calculation.

3 x 230Vac x 63A = 43.5kW x 5km/kW = 217.5km
After an evening/night of 10 hours, 2175km has been charged / 20cars = 109km per car.

On average, electric cars in the Netherlands drive 40km/day. So there is ample capacity to charge each car sufficiently.
