Citroen C-Zero Charging Cable FAQs

What ev cable do I need to charge my Citroen C-Zero?

The Citroen C-Zero use a type 1 connection, so to attached the EV Cable to the home ev charger you will require a type 1 to type 2 charging cable. The chosen cable should be able to charge at 3.7 kW, as this is the maximum speed that the Citreon C-Zero will charge. The car can be charged using a cable that allows for a higher capacity but it will be limited to the cars max speed. To keep your costings to a minimum we recommend a 16amp, single phase charging cable.
