Charging cable
Full AC charging speed for your car.
Why this fits your X2 xDrive25e+−
The BMW X2 xDrive25e has a Type 2 inlet and a single-phase 3.7kW onboard charger. A 7.4kW cable already delivers its full AC speed. The 22kW option only helps if your next car charges faster.
Which BMW X2 xDrive25e versions does it fit?+
This cable fits every BMW X2 xDrive25e, because they all share the same Type 2 charging inlet. That includes:
- BMW X2 xDrive25e Sport
- BMW X2 xDrive25e M Sport
- BMW X2 xDrive25e M Sport X
- BMW X2 xDrive25e M Mesh Edition
Whichever X2 xDrive25e trim you drive, it is the same cable, so you can order with confidence.

Charging
the BMW X2 xDrive25e.
The BMW X2 xDrive25e is a plug-in hybrid SUV coupe based on the F39 platform, on sale in the UK from 2020 to 2023. It combines a three-cylinder petrol engine with an electric motor mounted at the rear axle, giving a roughly 10kWh battery for short electric-only trips and all-wheel drive capability. As with the rest of BMW's PHEV range, you charge it through a Type 2 inlet, using a Type 2 to Type 2 cable at home or at a public AC point.
The X2 xDrive25e's onboard AC charger runs at 3.7kW on a single phase, which is common across compact BMW PHEVs. There is no DC rapid charging port. With a 10kWh battery, a full charge at 3.7kW takes around two and a half to three hours, meaning a charge finished during a work shift or overnight is easily achievable.
Estimates based on battery size and charge power. Rapid (DC) times are for a 10 to 80% charge, the way manufacturers quote them. Real-world charging varies with temperature, battery state and the charger itself.
7.4 kW or 22 kW?
Which cable does
the X2 xDrive25e need?
The X2 xDrive25e draws at most 3.7kW from any AC source, set by its onboard charger rather than the cable or wallbox. A 7.4kW Type 2 cable covers everything the car can use. Buying a 22kW three-phase cable for this car is unnecessary as the car simply cannot draw more than 3.7kW, whatever is plugged into it.
A 5m cable covers most home charging arrangements. The SUV coupe body means the charging inlet could sit at various points around the car, so if you find a standard 5m cable feels a little tight, stepping to 7m removes that concern. The low charge rate means time is not a factor here: even a longer cable and a short extra wait causes no real inconvenience.
What does it cost to charge?
Charging the 10kWh battery from empty costs roughly 75p on an off-peak EV tariff of around 7.5p per kWh, or around £2.70 at a standard rate of around 27p per kWh. Running the X2 on electric for local journeys is cheap enough to make daily charging worthwhile. Always check current tariffs, as rates shift.

BMW X2 xDrive25e FAQs
Good
questions.
Still not sure? Our team will confirm the right cable for your vehicle.
Contact usCan the BMW X2 xDrive25e charge at 22kW?+−
No, the BMW X2 xDrive25e has a single-phase onboard charger limited to 3.7kW, so a 7.4kW cable already delivers its full AC speed. A 22kW cable would only benefit a future car.
What length charging cable should I get?+−
5m suits most home and public charge points. Choose 7.5m or 10m if the charge point is far from your car's charging port or you park on the far side of a bay.
What charging cable does the BMW X2 xDrive25e need?+−
A Type 2 to Type 2 cable. The X2 xDrive25e uses a Type 2 inlet and charges at up to 3.7kW single-phase. A 7.4kW cable delivers the car's full AC speed. A 22kW cable brings no benefit and is not needed.
Can the BMW X2 xDrive25e rapid charge?+−
No. The F39 X2 xDrive25e has no DC rapid charging port. It is limited to AC charging at up to 3.7kW through its Type 2 inlet. Public CCS or CHAdeMO rapids cannot be used.
How long does the BMW X2 xDrive25e take to charge?+−
At 3.7kW, the 10kWh battery takes roughly 2.5 to 3 hours from empty. A wallbox charge during the day or overnight is all that is needed. A 3-pin socket works as a backup but takes considerably longer.
What cable length should I choose for the BMW X2 xDrive25e?+−
A 5m cable is the starting point for most driveways. The X2's coupe-style body can mean the inlet sits at an angle relative to a wall-mounted box, so a 7m lead gives useful flexibility without any downside.
