Fiat e-Ducato
Charging cable
The e-Ducato is 11kW three-phase as standard. The optional 22kW charger charges faster on a three-phase supply. The 22kW cable is the right one either way.
Charges about 50% faster on 22 kW public posts than a 7.4 kW cable.
Why this fits your e-Ducato+−
The Fiat e-Ducato has a Type 2 inlet and a three-phase 11kW onboard charger. The 22kW cable carries its full 11kW on three-phase chargers. A 7.4kW cable would cap it. On a single-phase home wallbox both cables charge at the same 7.4kW.

Charging
the Fiat e-Ducato.
The Fiat e-Ducato Gen1 is a large electric panel van built on the same platform as the Peugeot e-Boxer and Citroen e-Relay. Sold in the UK from 2021 to 2024, it was available with either a 47kWh or a 79kWh battery, making it one of the more capable electric vans of its generation for longer working days. It charges through a Type 2 inlet for AC, and CCS for DC rapid charging, though DC was an optional extra on early builds and some units left the factory without it.
For home or depot charging, the cable you bring is a Type 2 to Type 2 lead. The e-Ducato's onboard AC charger accepts up to 11kW on three phases as standard, with a 22kW three-phase option available. DC rapid charging at up to 50kW uses the charger's own tethered cable rather than one you purchase. Being a large commercial van, most operators will charge overnight at a depot or at home between shifts.
Select your battery above. The 79kWh pack roughly doubles the range of the 47kWh but takes proportionally longer to fill on AC. 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 e-Ducato need?
The e-Ducato's onboard AC charger is rated at 11kW on three phases. On a standard single-phase home or depot connection, which is by far the most common supply in the UK, charging is capped at 7.4kW regardless of the cable you choose. A 7.4kW Type 2 cable covers the full speed your single-phase supply can deliver, and is the practical choice for most operators.
A 22kW three-phase cable is worth considering if your depot has a three-phase supply and you have a 22kW charge point installed, because the e-Ducato with the optional 22kW onboard charger will draw the full rate. On a single-phase supply, however, a 22kW cable charges at exactly the same 7.4kW as a cheaper one. Check your site's supply before specifying the cable. A 5m lead suits most van charging setups; a 10m cable gives more flexibility on larger yards.
What does it cost to charge?
Filling the 79kWh battery from empty costs roughly £6 on an off-peak EV tariff of around 7.5p per kWh, and around £21 on a standard rate of around 27p per kWh. For the 47kWh pack, expect roughly £3.50 at the off-peak rate. Depot or overnight charging on a dedicated business tariff is the most cost-effective approach. Check current tariffs, as commercial electricity rates vary considerably.

Fiat e-Ducato FAQs
Good
questions.
Still not sure? Our team will confirm the right cable for your vehicle.
Contact usWhat charging cable does the Fiat e-Ducato need?+−
The Fiat e-Ducato has a Type 2 inlet, so it needs a Type 2 to Type 2 cable for UK home and public charging. It charges on up to three-phase AC at up to 11kW.
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 cable does the Fiat e-Ducato Gen1 need?+−
A Type 2 to Type 2 cable for home or depot AC charging. The standard onboard charger supports 11kW on three phases; on a single-phase supply it charges at 7.4kW. DC rapid charging at up to 50kW uses the charger's own tethered cable, not one you buy. Note that DC was an optional extra on early e-Ducato builds, so check your van's spec.
Can the Fiat e-Ducato charge at 22kW?+−
Some e-Ducato units were specified with a 22kW onboard charger, which allows faster AC charging on a three-phase supply. On a standard single-phase connection, charging is capped at 7.4kW. If your depot has a three-phase supply and the van has the 22kW option, a 22kW rated cable is worth having. Most operators will find 11kW or 7.4kW sufficient for overnight depot charging.
How long does the Fiat e-Ducato take to charge?+−
On a 7.4kW single-phase wallbox, the 79kWh version takes around 11 hours from empty, making overnight depot charging the natural approach. The 47kWh pack takes roughly 6.5 hours at the same rate. DC rapid charging at up to 50kW is far quicker for mid-shift top-ups, but uses the charger's tethered cable rather than one you purchase.
What length cable do I need for the Fiat e-Ducato?+−
A 5m cable works well for most depot or driveway setups. Because the e-Ducato is a large van, the charging inlet may be further from the charge point than on a passenger car, depending on how you park. A 7m or 10m lead gives more flexibility, especially on larger yards or when the charge point is fixed to a wall rather than a post.
