Charging
the Land Rover Defender P400e.
The Land Rover Defender P400e (generation L663, from 2021) is a plug-in hybrid version of Land Rover's iconic off-road SUV, available in the 110 body style. It pairs a turbocharged petrol engine with an electric motor and a 19.2kWh battery, offering a WLTP electric range for urban driving before the combustion engine takes over on longer journeys. Charging is through a Type 2 inlet, and the cable for home wallboxes and public AC chargers is a Type 2 to Type 2 lead.
The Defender P400e's onboard AC charger accepts up to 7kW on a single phase. The notes indicate some DC rapid charging capability of around 50kW, though this is not confirmed on all variants: check the specification sheet for your specific vehicle. For most owners, a 7kW home wallbox tops up the battery overnight and covers day-to-day use without relying on public charging.
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 Defender P400e need?
The Defender P400e's onboard charger is rated at 7kW single-phase, which is very closely matched by a standard 7.4kW Type 2 to Type 2 cable. That combination delivers the full AC speed the car can draw at a home wallbox. A 22kW three-phase cable adds nothing here: the charger is single-phase, and the car will draw no more than 7kW regardless of the cable or supply.
A 5m cable suits most home setups, but the Defender 110 is a large vehicle and depending on how you park it the charging port may end up some distance from the wallbox. If there is any doubt about the cable reaching comfortably, a 7m lead is the safer choice and the modest extra cost is worth the convenience. The absence of confirmed DC rapid charging on standard variants means your 7kW home charge is the primary fuelling method for the electric portion.
What does it cost to charge?
Filling the 19.2kWh battery from empty costs roughly £1.44 on an off-peak tariff of around 7.5p per kWh, and around £5.20 at a standard rate of roughly 27p per kWh. At 7kW, a full charge from empty takes around two and three quarter hours, fitting easily into an evening plug-in session. Check current tariffs as rates vary.

Land Rover Defender P400e 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 Land Rover Defender P400e need?+−
A Type 2 to Type 2 cable. The Defender P400e has a Type 2 AC inlet and charges at up to 7kW single-phase. A 7.4kW cable matches the onboard charger well. Some variants may support DC rapid charging around 50kW via CCS; check your specific vehicle's specification.
Can the Land Rover Defender P400e charge at 22kW?+−
No. The Defender P400e's onboard AC charger is single-phase and rated at 7kW. A 22kW three-phase cable or charger will not increase the charging speed; the car draws what its charger allows. For most owners, a 7kW home wallbox is the right setup.
How long does the Land Rover Defender P400e take to charge at home?+−
At 7kW on a home wallbox, the 19.2kWh battery takes roughly two and three quarter hours from empty to full. That comfortably fits an evening plug-in. A standard 3-pin socket at around 2.3kW would take closer to eight to nine hours for the same result.
What length cable do I need for the Land Rover Defender P400e?+−
A 5m cable is the standard recommendation for most driveways, but the Defender 110 is a long vehicle and your parking arrangement may put the charging port further from the wallbox than you expect. Measuring the distance before you buy is advisable; a 7m cable gives extra confidence and is the safer choice for many users.
