Skoda Enyaq
Charging cable
Charges about 50% faster on 22 kW public posts than a 7.4 kW cable.
Why this fits your Enyaq+−
The Skoda Enyaq 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 Skoda Enyaq versions does it fit?+
This cable fits every Skoda Enyaq, because they all share the same Type 2 charging inlet. That includes:
- Skoda Enyaq 60
- Skoda Enyaq 85
- Skoda Enyaq 85x
- Skoda Enyaq SE L
- Skoda Enyaq Edition
- Skoda Enyaq SportLine
- Skoda Enyaq vRS
Whichever Enyaq trim you drive, it is the same cable, so you can order with confidence.

Charging
the Skoda Enyaq.
The Skoda Enyaq facelift arrived in the UK in 2024, bringing a refined exterior, updated interior, and a significant upgrade to the rapid DC charging hardware. The headline change from the original Enyaq is the jump to up to 175kW DC charging on the 85 variant (roughly 77kWh usable), up from 135kW on earlier cars. The Enyaq facelift is a mid-size SUV available in rear-wheel drive and the twin-motor 85x, with a range of trims from 60 through to the vRS. Like all current mainstream EVs, its AC inlet is Type 2 and its rapid port is CCS. The cable you carry is a Type 2 to Type 2 lead.
The onboard AC charger is rated at 11kW on three phases, unchanged from the pre-facelift car. For most owners the day-to-day experience is home charging overnight, which the 77kWh battery handles comfortably on a standard wallbox. The upgraded DC charging speed is the facelift's most practical improvement for anyone who covers long distances regularly.
The facelift's main charging upgrade is on DC: up to 175kW versus the earlier 135kW. AC charging remains 11kW three-phase, giving 7.4kW at a single-phase home supply. 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 Enyaq need?
An 11kW AC charger sounds fast, but most Enyaq facelift owners will not see that speed at home. UK home wallboxes run on single-phase power, which imposes a hard ceiling of 7.4kW. On that setup, the cable rating makes no difference: a 7.4kW Type 2 cable and a 22kW cable both deliver 7.4kW. For home charging, the 7.4kW cable is the straightforward, better-value buy and gives the full speed your wallbox can supply.
Three-phase power changes the picture. At a three-phase home installation, or at the 11kW and 22kW public AC charge points found at an increasing number of destinations and car parks, the Enyaq facelift draws its full 11kW. In that situation a 22kW rated cable allows the car to reach its AC maximum wherever you are. If those charge points are part of your working day or regular travel patterns, a 22kW cable is the right choice. For the majority, an overnight single-phase charge covers daily mileage without fuss.
What does it cost to charge?
Charging the 77kWh battery from empty costs around £6 on an off-peak EV tariff at roughly 7.5p per kWh, and approximately £21 at a standard domestic rate of around 27p. The Enyaq is a family-sized SUV, so doing much of your charging on an overnight EV tariff makes a meaningful difference over the course of a year. Public rapid charging at 45p to 80p per kWh is significantly more expensive and best suited to longer trips rather than routine top-ups. Check current tariffs, as rates change.

Skoda Enyaq FAQs
Good
questions.
Still not sure? Our team will confirm the right cable for your vehicle.
Contact usWhat charging cable does the Skoda Enyaq need?+−
The Skoda Enyaq has a Type 2 inlet, so it needs a Type 2 to Type 2 cable for UK home and public charging. It charges on up to three-phase AC at up to 11kW.
Can the Skoda Enyaq charge at 22kW?+−
Yes, the Skoda Enyaq 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 Skoda Enyaq facelift need?+−
A Type 2 to Type 2 cable, compatible with all UK home wallboxes and standard public AC charge points. The Enyaq facelift uses Type 2 across all variants and trims. A 5m cable covers most situations; longer lengths of 7m or 10m are worth considering for larger driveways or when the wallbox is mounted some distance from where the car sits.
Does the Skoda Enyaq facelift charge faster on AC than the original?+−
No: the onboard AC charger remains 11kW three-phase on the facelift, the same as before. The charging improvement is on the DC rapid side, which rose from around 135kW to up to 175kW on the 85 model. For home AC charging, both generations of Enyaq behave identically, running at up to 7.4kW on a standard single-phase wallbox.
How long does the Skoda Enyaq facelift take to charge at home?+−
On a 7.4kW single-phase wallbox, the 77kWh battery takes around 10 to 11 hours from empty. That is a typical overnight charge window. On a three-phase 11kW wallbox the time drops to roughly 7 to 8 hours. A 3-pin socket would take around 34 hours, making it impractical for a battery this size except as a backup.
How fast is the Skoda Enyaq facelift on rapid DC?+−
The 85 model accepts up to 175kW on CCS rapid chargers, a notable improvement over the 135kW of the pre-facelift car. That means a 10% to 80% charge in around 30 minutes under good conditions. DC rapid charging uses the station's own tethered CCS cable: your Type 2 cable has no role during a rapid charge session.
