The correct pattern for the sentence: "Electric cars take several hours to recharge" is option A. S-V-O. Subject, verb, object.
Electric cars is the subject (electric is an adjective and car a noun). Take is the verb and "several hours to recharge" is the object direct.
A direct object will follow a transitive verb which is a type of action verb. Direct objects can be nouns, pronouns, phrases, or clauses.
Direct objects may be single words as well asphrases or clauses. The pattern nevertheless works the same.
