NIO ET7
Charging cable
Charges about 50% faster on 22 kW public posts than a 7.4 kW cable.
Why this fits your ET7+−
The NIO ET7 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.
Which NIO ET7 versions does it fit?+
This cable fits every NIO ET7, because they all share the same Type 2 charging inlet. That includes:
- NIO ET7 Long Range
- NIO ET7 Standard Range
Whichever ET7 trim you drive, it is the same cable, so you can order with confidence.

How long does it take?
Charging
the NIO ET7.
The NIO ET7 is NIO's full-size flagship electric saloon, positioned above the ET5 and aimed at the premium executive market. It uses a 90kWh usable battery on the Long Range version and supports DC rapid charging at up to around 140kW via CCS. For AC charging at home and at public wallboxes, the ET7 uses a Type 2 inlet, and the cable you provide is a Type 2 to Type 2 lead. At the time of writing, the ET7 was available in European left-hand-drive markets, with UK right-hand-drive availability unconfirmed.
The ET7's onboard AC charger handles up to 11kW across three phases. For DC rapid charging, the charger's own tethered cable is used, so that does not affect your cable choice. The AC cable question for this car comes down to whether your home supply is single-phase, which most UK homes are, or three-phase, which changes what the onboard charger can actually deliver.
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 ET7 need?
With an 11kW onboard AC charger, the ET7 can charge faster than a typical UK home supply allows. Single-phase supplies, which cover most UK homes, cap AC charging at 7.4kW no matter what cable you fit. A 7.4kW Type 2 to Type 2 cable is the sensible home choice: it delivers the full speed your supply can give, and the ET7 will use every bit of it.
If you have a three-phase supply at home or at a workplace, or if you regularly stop at 22kW public AC chargers, a 22kW three-phase cable lets the ET7 draw closer to its 11kW rated speed. Without three-phase power, the larger cable offers no benefit over a standard 7.4kW lead on your driveway. A 5m length handles most situations; a 7m option is available for more awkward setups.
What does it cost to charge?
Charging the 90kWh battery from empty at home costs roughly £6.75 at an off-peak rate of around 7.5p per kWh, or around £24 at a standard domestic rate of around 27p per kWh. As a large premium saloon, the ET7 suits owners who charge overnight and treat rapid public charging as a long-journey supplement rather than a routine. Check current tariff rates before planning your charging budget.

NIO ET7 FAQs
Good
questions.
Still not sure? Our team will confirm the right cable for your vehicle.
Contact usCan the NIO ET7 charge at 22kW?+−
Yes, the NIO ET7 has a three-phase onboard charger, so with a 22kW cable and a three-phase supply it can charge 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 charging cable does the NIO ET7 need?+−
A Type 2 to Type 2 cable for home and public AC charging. The ET7's onboard charger supports 11kW on three phases. For the typical UK single-phase home, a 7.4kW cable provides the maximum available speed. A 22kW three-phase cable is only worthwhile with a three-phase supply or at 22kW public AC charge points.
Can the NIO ET7 charge at 11kW?+−
Yes, but only on a three-phase supply. Most UK homes are single-phase, which limits AC charging to 7.4kW regardless of the cable rating. On a three-phase connection with the right wallbox and a suitably rated cable, the ET7 will draw its full 11kW.
How long does the NIO ET7 take to charge at home?+−
On a standard 7.4kW single-phase wallbox, filling the 90kWh battery from empty takes around 12 to 13 hours. With three-phase at 11kW that reduces to roughly 8 to 9 hours. Because it is a large executive saloon, topping up regularly from a mid-level charge is more practical than waiting for empty.
What length cable do I need for the NIO ET7?+−
A 5m cable handles most driveways and charge bays comfortably. The ET7 is a long car, so if the wallbox and the car's port end up on opposite sides of the parking area, a 7m lead makes the connection easier. A 10m cable suits unusual layouts where the socket is particularly far from the vehicle.
