Choosing the right EV Charging Product for your vehicle doesn’t need to be confusing or complicated.

If you aren’t happy with the trickle/granny/slow charger that came with your new EV we will have an alternative for faster charging at home.

CHOOSE BY VEHICLE CHARGING PORT

In New Zealand EVs and plug-in hybrids have a Type 1 or a Type 2 port – it depends on where the vehicle was assembled.  Choose your EV Charging cable carefully or it will not fit your car.

TYPE 1 / Ex-Japan

TYPE 2 / Ex-UK (NZ new)

This vehicle has a CCS Combo 2 inlet. A Type 2 cable will fit in the upper section.

TYPE 2

A Type 2 charging port is circular with a flat side. It is a popular connector type in New Zealand. It can be combined with other plugs (Combined Charging System) but a Type 2 handle will always fit.

This Type 1 EV also has a CHAdeMO port

CHADEMO

CHAdeMO plugs (left) can be on some EV’s from Asia. It is used for DC fast charging in Japan. See our information page on Using the Public Charging Network for more information.
