Which Charging Cable Should I Get for My Dacia EV?
As one of the most affordable electric car manufacturers on the market, Dacia EV's have made zero-emission driving more accessible than ever. But to get the most from your electric vehicle, it’s important to choose the right charging cable — one that’s safe, reliable, and compatible with every type of charge point in the UK.
At EVwired, we’ve put together this simple guide to help you choose the perfect charging cable for your Dacia EV, whether you’re charging at home, at work, or on the road.

The Correct Charging Cable for the Dacia EV
Like most new electric vehicles sold in the UK and across Europe, Dacia EV's use a Type 2 charging connector — the European standard for AC (Alternating Current) charging.
This means you’ll need a Type 2 to Type 2 charging cable to charge your vehicle at:
-
A home wall box (typically 7.4 kW single-phase).
-
Public AC charge points (11–22 kW three-phase).
-
Workplace chargers.
For rapid DC charging, Dacia EV's are equipped with a CCS connector. Public DC fast chargers have their own tethered cables, so you won’t need to bring one with you for motorway or rapid charging.
Dacia EV Charging Speeds
The Dacia Spring’s onboard charger supports both home and public AC charging. Charging speeds depend on the power supply and the type of cable used.
| Charging Type | Power Output | Approx. Time (0–100%) | Connector |
|---|---|---|---|
| Home Charging (Wall Box) | 7.4 kW (single-phase) | 6–8 hours | Type 2 |
| Public AC Charging | 11–22 kW (three-phase) | 3–4 hours | Type 2 |
| Rapid DC Charging | Up to 30 kW | Around 45 minutes (10–80%) | CCS |
Choosing the Right Cable Length
When selecting a charging cable for your Dacia EV, consider your typical parking and charging setup:
-
5m Cable: Ideal for compact driveways or garages with chargers close to your vehicle.
-
7m Cable: Perfect for added flexibility at public charging stations or workplaces where charger placement varies.
- 10m or 15m cable: Great where extra reach is required, providing maximum flexibility in hard to reach areas.
Home vs Public Charging for Your Dacia EV
Home Charging
A home wall box is the most convenient and cost-effective way to charge your Dacia EV. Plug in overnight and take advantage of off-peak electricity tariffs for cheaper, greener charging.
Public Charging
On the go? Dacia EV’s Type 2 and CCS compatibility ensures you can plug in at almost any public or motorway charging station across the UK. Apps like Zap-Map, Google Maps, and ChargePlace Scotland make finding nearby charge points quick and easy.
