Which charging cable fits a Volkswagen e-Golf?
Which charging cable fits a Volkswagen e-Golf?
Your e-Golf has a Type 2 connector at the rear right and charges at home on 1 phase and 16 amps: up to 3.7 kW. A Type 2 charging cable of 3.7 kW gets the most out of your car. A 22 kW cable works too, but doesn't charge any faster.
At 3.7 kW you charge the 20.5 kWh battery from empty to full in about 5.5 hours. With a portable charger on a regular socket it takes a lot longer, handy if you don't have a charging station.
How we calculate it: the 20.5 kWh battery divided by 3.7 kW of charging power is about 5.5 hours. In practice it takes a little longer, because the last few percent charge more slowly and some energy is lost while charging.
