Which Charging Cable Should I Get for My Leapmotor EV?

As Leapmotor EVs enter the UK market, more drivers are looking for affordable and practical electric options. Whether you’re considering the Leapmotor T03 city car or one of the brand’s upcoming models, having the right charging cable is essential for reliable, everyday use.

Like most EVs sold across Europe, Leapmotor vehicles use a Type 2 charging port for AC charging and a CCS connector for rapid DC charging. This means a Type 2 to Type 2 charging cable is the must-have accessory for your Leapmotor EV.

Shop our Type 2 EV Charging Cables fully compatible with Leapmotor EVs.

What Charging Connector Does a Leapmotor EV Use?

  • Type 2 connector (7-pin): Used for home wall boxes, workplace chargers, and untethered public AC charge points.

  • CCS connector (Combined Charging System): Used for rapid DC charging at motorway service stations and public rapid chargers (no separate cable needed as these chargers have built-in cables).

Leapmotor EV Charging Speeds

Exact speeds vary by model, but Leapmotor EVs in the UK typically support:

  • 7.4kW single-phase AC charging – the UK standard for home wall boxes.

  • 11kW three-phase AC charging – supported at many workplace and public charging stations.

  • DC rapid charging (up to 40–100kW depending on model): 10–80% in 30–45 minutes.

This balance makes Leapmotor EVs practical for both city driving and longer commutes.

Which Charging Cable Should I Choose?

The right cable depends on your charging habits:

  • For Home Charging: A single-phase Type 2 to Type 2 cable (7.4kW) is perfect for charging overnight on a home wall box.

  • For Public Charging & Flexibility: A three-phase Type 2 to Type 2 cable (22kW) is a popular choice. Even if your Leapmotor charges at 7.4kW or 11kW, a 22kW cable ensures compatibility with faster public chargers and future-proofs your setup.

Cable Lengths:

  • 5m cable – compact and easy for small driveways or garages.

  • 7m cable – a versatile choice, providing flexibility for both home and public use.

  • 10m or 15m cable – ideal for on-street charging or awkward parking positions.
