Do I need a panel upgrade for an EV charger?

Often no — a 100A or 200A panel with available capacity can support a 40A or 50A charger circuit. We perform a load calculation; if capacity is tight, we'll quote a load-management device or a panel upgrade.

Hardwired vs NEMA 14-50 — which should I pick?

Hardwired is required above 50A and is generally cleaner and code-preferred. NEMA 14-50 is fine for 40A chargers and lets you unplug the unit if you move.
