Peugeot e-2008
Charging cable
Charges about 50% faster on 22 kW public posts than a 7.4 kW cable.
Why this fits your e-2008+−
The Peugeot e-2008 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 Peugeot e-2008 versions does it fit?+
This cable fits every Peugeot e-2008, because they all share the same Type 2 charging inlet. That includes:
- Peugeot e-2008 Active
- Peugeot e-2008 Allure
- Peugeot e-2008 GT
- Peugeot e-2008 First Edition
Whichever e-2008 trim you drive, it is the same cable, so you can order with confidence.

Charging
the Peugeot e-2008.
The Peugeot e-2008 is Peugeot's compact electric SUV, refreshed for its second generation from 2023. It sits on Stellantis's e-CMP platform and carries a 54kWh battery with 51kWh usable, giving a WLTP range of around 260 to 280 miles depending on specification. The e-2008 uses a Type 2 inlet for AC charging and a CCS port for rapid DC sessions.
When you plug into a home wallbox or a public AC unit, the cable you bring is a Type 2 to Type 2 lead. DC rapid charging, where the e-2008 can accept up to 100kW, uses the station's own tethered cable. The e-2008 Gen 2 has an 11kW three-phase onboard AC charger as standard across the Active, Allure, GT, and First Edition trims.
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 e-2008 need?
The e-2008's 11kW onboard charger is three-phase, but that speed is only available when connected to a three-phase supply. UK homes almost universally use a single-phase circuit, which caps AC charging at 7.4kW. For a compact SUV with a 54kWh battery, a 7.4kW home wallbox fills it comfortably overnight, and a 7.4kW Type 2 cable is all you need for that. It is the simpler and less expensive choice for most buyers.
A 22kW three-phase cable makes sense for the e-2008 if you travel with regular stops at 22kW public AC chargers, where the car will draw its full 11kW, or if you are one of the minority of UK home owners with a three-phase supply. In those scenarios the faster charge rate is genuinely useful. On a single-phase home connection a 22kW cable charges at identically the same 7.4kW as the cheaper 7.4kW cable, so the upgrade buys flexibility rather than immediate speed.
What does it cost to charge?
Charging the 54kWh battery from empty costs roughly £4 on an off-peak EV tariff at around 7.5p per kWh, or around £15 at the standard domestic rate of roughly 27p per kWh. Home charging on a dedicated time-of-use tariff with an overnight off-peak window is the most cost-effective way to run the e-2008. Public rapid chargers typically cost between 45p and 80p per kWh and are better suited to topping up on longer journeys. Check tariff rates with your supplier, as they change.

Peugeot e-2008 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 Peugeot e-2008 need?+−
A Type 2 to Type 2 cable for home wallboxes and public AC chargers. A 5m lead suits most driveways. The Gen 2 e-2008 uses a standard Type 2 inlet. On a single-phase home supply, a 7.4kW cable delivers the maximum available speed. A 22kW three-phase cable is worth choosing only if you have a three-phase home supply or regularly charge at 22kW public AC points.
Can the Peugeot e-2008 charge at 22kW?+−
No. The e-2008's onboard AC charger is limited to 11kW on three phases, so the maximum on any AC charger is 11kW. On a standard single-phase UK home wallbox the charge rate drops to 7.4kW regardless of what cable or charger is used.
How long does the Peugeot e-2008 take to charge at home?+−
On a 7.4kW single-phase home wallbox the 54kWh battery takes around seven to eight hours from empty to full, fitting comfortably within an overnight charge. On a three-phase 11kW supply that reduces to roughly five hours. A standard three-pin household plug is significantly slower at around 24 hours and is best kept as a backup.
What is the difference between the e-2008 Gen 1 and Gen 2 charging?+−
The Gen 2 e-2008 from 2023 features 11kW three-phase AC charging as standard across the range, compared to some Gen 1 variants which offered only 7.4kW single-phase. The 54kWh battery and up-to-100kW DC capability are consistent across Gen 2 trims. On a typical UK single-phase home connection both generations are effectively limited to 7.4kW in practice.
