Ford Capri EV
Charging cable
Charges about 50% faster on 22 kW public posts than a 7.4 kW cable.
Why this fits your Capri EV+−
The Ford Capri EV 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 Ford Capri EV.
The Ford Capri EV is a mid-size electric SUV launched in 2024, reviving the Capri name on an all-new battery platform. It is built on Volkswagen's MEB architecture and comes in two distinct battery sizes for the UK: a 52kWh Standard Range using an LFP pack, and a 77kWh Extended Range for longer journeys. Both connect to AC charging through a Type 2 inlet and to rapid DC through a CCS port, with the Extended Range accepting up to 185kW DC.
For home charging and public AC sessions, you supply a Type 2 to Type 2 cable. Both Capri EV variants top out at 11kW on AC through the car's onboard charger, so the connector type and cable length are what to focus on when choosing a lead. Rapid DC charging uses the station's own fixed cable and not something you bring yourself.
Select your battery above. The Standard Range 52kWh pack charges noticeably quicker at home and on DC, while the Extended Range 77kWh trades that speed for around 100 extra miles of real-world range. 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 Capri EV need?
Both Capri EV variants use a Type 2 to Type 2 cable for AC charging. The onboard charger accepts up to 11kW but only achieves that on a three-phase supply, and the vast majority of UK homes are single-phase. That means the actual home charging rate is 7.4kW whatever cable you choose. A 7.4kW cable is the right buy for most owners: it delivers the full speed your home can provide, and the cheaper outlay versus a 22kW lead is straightforward to justify.
A 22kW three-phase cable becomes worthwhile if you regularly use 22kW public AC charging points, where the Capri EV will pull 11kW rather than being limited to 7.4kW by a single-phase cable. That roughly halves time at a public AC post. If your charging is mostly at home or on 7kW public points, the 22kW cable adds cost without adding speed. A 5m length covers most home driveway setups; go to 7m or 10m if there is a lot of distance between your wallbox and where the car sits.
What does it cost to charge?
Filling the 77kWh Extended Range from empty costs roughly £6 on a dedicated off-peak EV tariff at around 7.5p per kWh, or around £21 at a standard domestic rate of around 27p per kWh. The 52kWh Standard Range is around a third cheaper per full charge. Both variants reward overnight home charging on an EV tariff, which is the biggest factor in keeping running costs down. Public rapid DC charging at 45p to 80p per kWh is far costlier and best saved for longer trips. Check current rates from your supplier.

Ford Capri EV FAQs
Good
questions.
Still not sure? Our team will confirm the right cable for your vehicle.
Contact usWhat 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 Ford Capri EV need?+−
A Type 2 to Type 2 cable. The 52kWh Standard Range and 77kWh Extended Range both use the same Type 2 inlet for AC charging. A 5m, 7.4kW cable suits most home wallboxes. The onboard charger accepts up to 11kW on three phases, so a 22kW cable only helps at three-phase public AC points.
Can the Ford Capri EV charge at 22kW?+−
No. The Capri EV's onboard AC charger is capped at 11kW on three phases. On a standard UK single-phase home supply the maximum is 7.4kW, and that applies regardless of cable. At a 22kW public AC station with a three-phase cable, the car pulls 11kW, not 22kW.
How long does the Ford Capri EV take to charge at home?+−
On a 7.4kW home wallbox, the 77kWh Extended Range needs around 10 to 11 hours from near-empty to full, fitting overnight without difficulty. The 52kWh Standard Range takes around 7 hours. A standard 3-pin socket at 2.3kW is not practical for regular use given either battery size.
What is the DC rapid charging speed of the Ford Capri EV?+−
The 77kWh Extended Range accepts up to 185kW DC via its CCS port, while the 52kWh Standard Range manages up to around 135kW. At a suitably fast charger, the Extended Range goes from 10% to 80% in roughly 28 to 30 minutes. DC rapid charging uses the station's own tethered lead, not a cable you supply.
