At £29,995 the Chery Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid is the cheapest way into Chery's plug-in range, and the running costs that justify it only arrive if the battery is full when you set off. Charged, the first 56 miles cost pennies on an overnight tariff. Flat, the petrol engine generates that electricity for you at petrol prices. The cable is the small purchase that decides which of those two cars you own.
Every Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid accepts up to 6.6 kW on AC, on every trim Chery sells in the UK. There is one battery in the range, the 18.4 kWh pack, so no version charges faster or slower than another.
The car takes a Type 2 to Type 2 Charging Cable, the connector fitted to UK home wallboxes and to untethered public posts, so the plug end is never the question. One thing to rule out first: shared badge or not, the petrol Chery Tiggo 7 is a different car with no charging socket anywhere on it. Only the Super Hybrid plugs in.
That 6.6 kW arrives down one phase, which is all a British domestic supply offers in the first place. Our 32A single-phase Type 2 to Type 2 cable is rated at 7.4 kW, a margin over anything the Tiggo 7 asks for, so the car draws its full 6.6 kW and refills from empty in about three hours. The 32A three-phase cable is rated at 22 kW and costs more, but on this car the second and third phases sit idle. The charger still takes 6.6 kW, the charge still takes three hours, and you are out of pocket for nothing.
A 16A cable is where the economics slip. It holds the car to 3.7 kW and stretches that charge to five hours fifteen minutes. Cheap-rate windows are the financial case for a plug-in hybrid, and a 32A cable finishes inside one with hours in hand. A 16A cable uses nearly all of it, so any evening you get home late you are paying day rate or setting off tomorrow on petrol.
Our Type 2 to 3-Pin cable draws 2.3 kW from an ordinary 13A household socket, filling the Tiggo 7 from empty in about eight and a half hours and adding roughly seven miles of electric range an hour. On a battery this size that is a genuine overnight charge, which turns a socket at work, at a second home or at family you visit often into miles you never bought at a pump. It is IP67 sealed, so it can live in the boot and be used outdoors.
The rest of the Chery plug-in range charges the same way. The Tiggo 8 Super Hybrid shares this exact battery and charge rate in a seven seat body, while the Tiggo 9 Super Hybrid almost doubles the battery to 34.46 kWh. See the full Chery charging cable range.
The Tiggo 7 charge flap sits on the rear offside, behind the rear wheel, so the run to cover is wallbox to driver's side back corner, with the car standing where you habitually leave it. Nose on to a driveway with the wallbox near the house and that route is longer than it looks. Lengths run from 5m to 20m and 10m is the most popular choice.
Every cable we sell is built to the IEC 62196 Type 2 standard, CE certified, and rated to work between -30C to +50C, or +60C for the 3-pin. The Type 2 to Type 2 carries an IP55 seal and the Type 2 to 3-Pin an IP67 one. Two year manufacturer's warranty, free next working day UK delivery.
Maximum onboard AC charging speed: 6.6 kW, single phase
| Cable Type | Max Charge Rate | Empty to Full | Range Added Per Hour | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Type 2 - 1-Phase, 16A (5m / 10m) | 3.7 kW | 5 hours 15 mins | approx. 12 miles | Uses most of an off-peak window |
| Type 2 - 1-Phase, 32A (5m / 10m) | 6.6 kW (car limited) | 3 hours | approx. 21 miles | Best Fit at home |
| Type 2 - 3-Phase, 32A (5m / 10m) | 6.6 kW (car limited) | 3 hours | approx. 21 miles | No gain, do not buy |
| Type 2 to 3-Pin (5m / 10m) | 2.3 kW | 8 hours 30 mins | approx. 7 miles | Ideal backup, works overnight |
Times are based on the 17.5 kWh usable capacity of the 18.4 kWh pack, and range added per hour comes from the 56 mile WLTP electric range. Cold weather and motorway speeds will both reduce the miles per hour figure.
We pride ourselves on the quality of our cables. Every cable comes with a 2 year manufacturer's warranty, and the jacket will survive being driven over, though we would rather you did not make a habit of it.
Protection against pressure
Our cables are safe to use whatever the weather. Type 2 to Type 2 cables are IP55 rated, CE marked, and work from -30°C to +50°C. Type 2 to 3 pin cables are IP67 rated, CE marked and work from -30°C to +60°C.
Protection against temperature
Our cables fit any electric car or plug-in hybrid with a Type 2 inlet, including Audi, BMW, Volvo, Mini, Mercedes, Kia, Hyundai, Volkswagen, Smart and Toyota. Use our car reg checker to confirm your car.
Compatible with all Type 2 cars
A Chery Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid needs a 32A single-phase Type 2 to Type 2 cable. That lets the onboard charger take its full 6.6 kW, a three hour refill of the 18.4 kWh battery from empty. Spend the thought on length rather than on an amperage the car will never draw.
No, three phase is wasted money on a Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid. The Chery's onboard charger is single phase and stops at 6.6 kW, so a 22 kW three-phase cable moves exactly as much energy per hour as the 32A single-phase one, at home or on an untethered public post.
About three hours from empty to full on a 32A single-phase cable and a 7 kW wallbox. The same job takes five hours fifteen minutes on a 16A cable, and a three-pin socket puts a Chery Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid at around eight and a half hours, still inside a normal night at home.
Enough for the whole battery. A 32A cable puts roughly 21 miles of electric range an hour into a Chery Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid, so a five hour off-peak window covers all 56 miles and leaves time spare. On a 16A cable the rate falls to about 12 miles an hour, which swallows nearly the entire window.
Most Chery Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid drivers are well served by 10m. Measure from the wallbox to the rear offside in the position you actually park, leaving enough spare that the lead never hangs tight. 5m only works where the wallbox is beside that corner, and 15m or 20m covers a detached garage, a shared bay or a charge point on the far side of the house.
Yes. An untethered public post has a Type 2 socket and no lead attached, so your own Type 2 to Type 2 cable connects post to car. A Chery Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid still tops out at 6.6 kW there, whatever the post is rated at.

| Chery Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid, 2025 on | 18.4 kWh | Type 2 | 6.6 kW, single phase | Type 2 to Type 2, 32A single phase |
The Tiggo 7 Super Hybrid is sold in the UK with one battery and one onboard charger, in Aspire and Summit trim, so there is nothing to check before ordering. The petrol Chery Tiggo 7 is a separate model with no charging socket and needs no cable. The 6.6 kW ceiling is set by the car, and the 32A single-phase cable delivers all of it. A three-phase cable cannot raise it.

Accessory Add-Ons
We offer a range of products to help store and transport your charging cable. Choose from the accessories below:
A charging cable that connects electric vehicles (EVs) with a Type 2 connector to charging points is also equipped with a Type 2 socket. It supports faster charging speeds and is commonly used across Europe for EVs with this standard connection.
This cable allows electric vehicles with a Type 2 socket to charge from a standard UK 3-pin domestic outlet. It provides a slower charge but is useful for home or emergency charging when dedicated charging stations aren't available.
A cable used to extend the reach of a Type 2 charging cable. It's helpful when the existing cable is too short to connect an electric vehicle to the charging point, providing more flexibility in parking.
A fixed charging cable attached to a charging point, designed for electric vehicles with a Type 2 socket. The tethered design eliminates the need to carry a separate cable, offering convenience for regular charging at home or work.
A charging cable that connects electric vehicles with a Type 1 socket to charging points equipped with a Type 2 outlet. This allows EVs with the older Type 1 standard to use more modern charging infrastructure.
This cable enables electric vehicles with a Type 1 connector to charge from a standard UK 3-pin household outlet. It's suitable for slower charging at home when dedicated EV charging points aren't accessible.
A 5M charging cable is the shortest length that we offer. It is a great option if you can park close to the charge point and do not need much length to reach your car.
A 10M charging cable is the most popular length. It allows you to have enough flexibility whilst still being easy enough to move. This is a great option if you cannot park close to the electricity supply.
A 15M charging cable is a great choice if you need some extra flexibility, i.e. get past another car or reach the other end of a driveway. The length of the cable does not affect the charging speed.
A 20M charging cable is the longest cable that we currently offer. 20M reaches the vast majority of locations where you would want to charge your car. Always use one continuous cable. Never join two charging cables together and never charge through an extension lead, because the join is where heat builds up.
The choice if you will charge from a standard UK 3 pin socket. It runs at the most the socket can safely supply, and the control box lets you turn the current down for a slower, gentler charge overnight or on an older circuit.
A 16amp cable will be able to charge at 3.7kW. This is the cheapest product if your car's max charge speed is 3.7kW. If you have two electric cars or are looking to purchase another it might be worth considering a faster charging cable as this could limit charge speeds moving forward.
A 32amp charging cable will be able to charge at 7.4kW, which is the most a single phase UK home supply can deliver. A 32amp cable also charges at every lower speed (for example 16amp, 3.7kW), so it is the right choice if your home charge point is 7.4kW or you mostly charge at home.
A 32amp 3-phase charging cable will be able to charge at all speeds up to 22kW, so the cable never limits your charge speed at home or in public. It is also capable of charging at all lower charge speeds.
