Recommended equipment for a Citroën
Based on the most common Citroën configuration, Type 2 plug and single-phase charging. Every model page refines it by version.
At home, on a reinforced socket
The simplest way to charge every night: a Green'up socket fitted by an electrician, much safer than a household socket, with the 16 A cable of your Citroën.
On a public charger or a wallbox
Your Citroën accepts three-phase power: this 32 A Type 2 cable uses its 7.4 kW on 11 and 22 kW chargers.
On a public charger or a wallbox
Your Citroën charges in single phase, up to 7.4 kW: this Type 2 cable is all it needs on any charger, in town or at home.
On a public charger or a wallbox
Your Citroën has a Type 1 inlet: this Type 2 / Type 1 cable connects it to public chargers and to wallboxes with a Type 2 socket.
A wallbox at home
A 22 kW three-phase wallbox uses the 7.4 kW of your Citroën and will keep up with your next car.
A wallbox at home
A 7.4 kW single-phase wallbox, the most your Citroën accepts at home, with smart control to charge at off-peak rates.
Good to know about charging a Citroën
Current Citroën electric models charge through a Type 2 plug and, for the most part, at 7.4 kW single-phase: a 7.4 kW wallbox charges them at full power, with a 9 kVA subscription and no three-phase meter.
- ë-C3 and ë-C3 Aircross: 7.4 kW single-phase (11 kW as an option on the ë-C3). The ë-C3 goes from 20 to 80% in 3h30 on a 7.4 kW wallbox, and in 7h01 on a 3.7 kW reinforced socket.
- ë-C4: 7.4 kW as standard, 11 kW three-phase with the optional charger. Check your version before choosing a three-phase wallbox.
- Electric C5 Aircross (2025): 11 kW three-phase.
- C5 Aircross and C5 X plug-in hybrids: 3.7 kW, or 7.4 kW for C5 Aircross fitted with the optional charger.
- Ami: built-in cable, plugged into a household socket, 1.8 kW. Allow 1h45 from 20 to 80%.
The first-generation C-Zero, e-Méhari and e-Berlingo Multispace have a Type 1 plug: they need a Type 2 / Type 1 cable for public charging stations. For a 3.7 kW hybrid, the Green'up reinforced socket charges at the car's maximum power.
