Jaecoo 7 SHS
Charging cable
Full AC charging speed for your car.
Why this fits your 7 SHS+−
The Jaecoo 7 SHS has a Type 2 inlet and a single-phase 6.6kW onboard charger. A 7.4kW cable already delivers its full AC speed. The 22kW option only helps if your next car charges faster.

Charging
the Jaecoo 7 SHS.
The Jaecoo 7 SHS is a plug-in hybrid SUV from the Chery-owned Jaecoo brand, on sale in the UK from 2024. It pairs a petrol engine with an 18.3kWh battery under the SHS (Super Hybrid System) banner and, unusually for a PHEV of this size, supports DC rapid charging at up to around 40kW alongside conventional AC top-ups. Both charging types use a Type 2 inlet; the DC session uses the charger's own tethered CCS cable.
For home charging and public AC posts you bring a Type 2 to Type 2 lead. The Jaecoo 7 SHS onboard AC charger is rated at 6.6kW on a single phase, so a 7.4kW cable is perfectly matched to the car and provides the full home charging speed.
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 7 SHS need?
The Jaecoo 7 SHS onboard AC charger is rated at 6.6kW, which is below the 7.4kW ceiling of a standard UK home wallbox. A 7.4kW Type 2 cable is the right match: it handles the car's full AC charging speed without any waste, and it is compatible with the Type 2 sockets found on nearly all UK public AC chargers. There is no reason to consider a 22kW cable for this car.
Rapid DC charging at up to 40kW is available via the CCS port, bringing the battery from 30% to 80% in around 20 minutes. That session uses the charger's own cable rather than one you supply. For day-to-day use, a straightforward 7.4kW Type 2 to Type 2 lead in a 5m length covers everything you need.
What does it cost to charge?
Filling the 18.3kWh battery from empty costs roughly £1 to £1.50 on an off-peak EV tariff of around 7.5p per kWh, and around £5 at a standard rate of around 27p per kWh. The small pack is quick and cheap to charge, making it well suited to regular overnight top-ups. Daily plug-in habits on a cheaper tariff are the most effective way to maximise electric-only miles. Check current rates before calculating your own running costs.

Jaecoo 7 SHS FAQs
Good
questions.
Still not sure? Our team will confirm the right cable for your vehicle.
Contact usWhat charging cable does the Jaecoo 7 SHS need?+−
The Jaecoo 7 SHS has a Type 2 inlet, so it needs a Type 2 to Type 2 cable for UK home and public charging. It charges on single-phase AC at up to 6.6kW.
Can the Jaecoo 7 SHS charge at 22kW?+−
No, the Jaecoo 7 SHS has a single-phase onboard charger limited to 6.6kW, 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 cable does the Jaecoo 7 SHS need?+−
A Type 2 to Type 2 cable for home and public AC charging. The Jaecoo 7 SHS onboard AC charger accepts up to 6.6kW, so a 7.4kW cable is the ideal match. There is no benefit to a 22kW cable on this car. A 5m length suits most home driveways.
Can the Jaecoo 7 SHS use rapid DC chargers?+−
Yes. The Jaecoo 7 SHS supports DC rapid charging at up to around 40kW via its CCS port, which is a noteworthy feature for a compact PHEV. A 30% to 80% charge takes roughly 20 minutes. Rapid DC sessions use the charger's own tethered cable, not one you purchase separately.
How long does the Jaecoo 7 SHS take to charge at home?+−
On a 7.4kW home wallbox the 18.3kWh battery fills from empty in around 3 hours. Because the battery is small, it can also be charged from a standard 3-pin socket in roughly 5 to 6 hours, though a wallbox is a much better everyday solution. Overnight charging is more than enough for a full battery.
Do I need a 22kW cable for the Jaecoo 7 SHS?+−
No. The Jaecoo 7 SHS onboard AC charger maxes out at 6.6kW, so a 22kW cable provides no speed advantage on this car. A standard 7.4kW Type 2 to Type 2 lead is all you need for home and public AC charging.
