Charging
the Toyota Proace City Electric.
The Toyota Proace City Electric is a compact electric van sold in the UK from 2021 and based on the same platform as the Citroen e-Berlingo and Vauxhall Combo Electric. It carries a 50kWh battery and uses a Type 2 inlet for AC charging and a CCS port for DC rapid charging. The cable you supply for home depot or workplace charging is a Type 2 to Type 2 lead.
The standard onboard AC charger is rated at 7.4kW on a single phase, with an optional 11kW three-phase charger available. DC rapid charging via CCS at up to 100kW uses the tethered cable at the charger, not one you own. Cable choice for the Proace City Electric comes down to whether your site has a single-phase or three-phase supply.
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 Proace City Electric need?
With the standard 7.4kW single-phase onboard charger, a 7.4kW Type 2 to Type 2 cable gives you the full charging speed available at any single-phase wallbox or public AC post. There is no speed gain from a 22kW cable on a single-phase supply, so for most depot or workplace setups a 7.4kW cable is the straightforward choice.
If your site has a three-phase supply and the optional 11kW onboard charger is fitted, a 22kW three-phase cable allows the Proace City Electric to charge at its 11kW maximum. This is the only scenario where a 22kW cable earns its extra cost. On any single-phase setup the two cable ratings deliver identical speed. For a van that parks in varied locations, a 10m cable can be a worthwhile investment over the standard 5m.
What does it cost to charge?
Charging the 50kWh battery from empty costs around £3.75 on an off-peak EV tariff of around 7.5p per kWh, or around £13.50 at a standard rate of around 27p. Overnight charging at a depot or workplace wallbox on a favourable tariff keeps the running cost of the Proace City Electric competitive. Check current commercial and business tariffs for accurate figures.

Toyota Proace City Electric FAQs
Good
questions.
Still not sure? Our team will confirm the right cable for your vehicle.
Contact usWhat charging cable does the Toyota Proace City Electric need?+−
The Toyota Proace City Electric 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 7.4kW.
Can the Toyota Proace City Electric charge at 22kW?+−
Only with the optional three-phase onboard charger. The Toyota Proace City Electric is single-phase 7.4kW as standard, so a 7.4kW cable delivers its full AC speed. If you specified the optional 11kW three-phase charger, choose the 22kW three-phase cable to use it.
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 Toyota Proace City Electric need?+−
A Type 2 to Type 2 cable. The standard onboard charger is 7.4kW single-phase, and a 7.4kW cable suits most depot, workplace, and public AC charging situations. If the optional 11kW three-phase charger is fitted and your site has a three-phase supply, a 22kW cable allows the full 11kW rate.
How fast does the Toyota Proace City Electric charge on AC?+−
With the standard 7.4kW single-phase onboard charger, the Proace City Electric charges at up to 7.4kW from a home wallbox or single-phase AC post. With the optional 11kW three-phase charger and a three-phase supply, charging rises to 11kW. DC rapid charging via CCS at up to 100kW uses the charger's own tethered cable.
How long does the Toyota Proace City Electric take to charge?+−
On a 7.4kW single-phase wallbox the 50kWh battery takes around seven hours from empty to full. With the optional 11kW charger on a three-phase supply, that drops to around four and a half hours. DC rapid charging via CCS is much faster and uses the rapid charger's own cable.
What cable length should I choose for the Toyota Proace City Electric?+−
A 5m cable suits fixed depot bays where the van parks in a consistent position close to the charger. For more variable parking, or if the charging point is set back from where the van door sits, a 7m or 10m cable gives useful extra reach without the risk of the lead pulling taut.
