Good questions
What charging cable does the Vauxhall Ampera need?+
The Vauxhall Ampera has a Type 1 inlet, so it needs a Type 1 to Type 2 cable for UK home and public charging. It charges on single-phase AC at up to 3.3kW.
Can the Vauxhall Ampera charge at 22kW?+
No — the Vauxhall Ampera has a single-phase onboard charger limited to 3.3kW, so a 7.4kW cable already delivers its full AC speed. A 22kW cable would only benefit a future car.
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.
