Jaguar E Pace Charging Cable
Quick recommendation
Order the 32A Type 2 to Type 2 cable if you run the E-PACE P300e. That is the only E-PACE with a charging socket, and 7 kW is the most it will draw on AC, so a 32A lead lets it work at its full speed.
Jaguar sold the P300e plug-in hybrid from 2021 until the end of 2024. It carries an 11.6 kWh usable battery, around 15 kWh gross, behind a Type 2 inlet. Because the pack is small, a 32A cable brings it from empty to full in roughly an hour and three quarters, which is inside the length of an evening meal.
A 16A cable caps the flow at 3.7 kW and doubles that to about three and a half hours. On a battery this size the gap is less painful than it would be on a full electric car, so the 16A cable is a reasonable saving if you plug in overnight and never think about it. If you charge between school runs, buy the 32A.
Every other E-PACE stays away from this page. The D165 and D200 diesels, and the P200, P250 and P300 petrols, are either plain combustion cars or 48V mild hybrids. A mild hybrid recovers energy under braking and has no charging port, so no cable connects to it.
Jaguar's badge rule settles any doubt across the range: a lower case letter e on the end of the badge means the car plugs in. P300e does. P300 does not.
One detail on the P300e. Unusually for a plug-in hybrid it also accepts DC, and Jaguar states that the car tops out at 32 kW even on a 50 kW unit. DC has nothing to do with the cable you buy, since those chargers carry their own lead.
The 22 kW three phase cable brings nothing at home. UK houses run on a single phase, so a domestic charge point cannot exceed 7.4 kW, and the P300e stops at 7 kW anyway. Speed is always set by whichever is lowest: car, supply or cable.
If you have moved up to the larger F-PACE P400e, it holds 15.4 kWh usable and also charges at 7 kW, so the same 32A cable is the right choice.
Type 2 to Type 2 cables are IP55 rated, Type 2 to 3 Pin cables are IP67, both come in 5m and 10m lengths, and every order includes a 2 year manufacturer's warranty and same-day dispatch on working-day orders placed before 2pm.
Jaguar E-PACE Charging Times
E-PACE P300e plug-in hybrid, 2021 to 2024, 11.6 kWh usable
| Cable Type | Max Charge Rate | Empty to Full | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|
| Type 2 to 3 Pin, 5m or 10m | 2.3 kW | 5h45m | Useful away from home |
| Type 2 to Type 2 16A, 5m or 10m | 3.7 kW | 3h30m | Fine overnight |
| Type 2 to Type 2 32A, 5m or 10m | 7 kW, the car's limit | 1h45m | Best fit |
| Type 2 to Type 2 32A three phase, 5m or 10m | 7 kW on a UK home supply | 1h45m | No benefit at home |
The D165, D200, P200, P250 and P300 have no charging port, so no charge times apply to them.
Jaguar E-PACE Charging Cable FAQs
Which Jaguar E-PACE needs a charging cable?
Only the P300e plug-in hybrid, built from 2021 to 2024. It has an 11.6 kWh usable battery and a Type 2 inlet that accepts 7 kW, so a 32A Type 2 to Type 2 cable suits it. The D165, D200, P200, P250 and P300 have no charging port and cannot use a cable at all.
Is a 32A cable worth it on an E-PACE P300e?
It depends how you charge. With 11.6 kWh usable, the 32A cable delivers 7 kW and finishes in about 1h45m, while a 16A cable manages 3.7 kW and takes roughly 3h30m. If you plug in and leave it overnight, 16A is enough. If you turn the car round during the day, pay for 32A.
How long does an E-PACE P300e take to charge?
Around one hour forty five minutes from empty using a 32A cable on a home charge point, because the car draws 7 kW into an 11.6 kWh usable pack. A 16A cable stretches it to about three and a half hours. From a domestic three pin socket at 2.3 kW, allow close to six hours.
How do I tell if my E-PACE plugs in?
Check the badge for a lower case e at the end. P300e plugs in, P300 does not, and the same rule holds across the Jaguar range. If the badge has been removed, the V5C logbook settles it, because a P300e is recorded as a plug-in hybrid electric while a P300 is recorded as petrol.
Does the E-PACE P300e have rapid charging?
It does, which is rare for a plug-in hybrid. Jaguar quotes a 50 kW charger but states that the car itself peaks at 32 kW on DC. That is entirely separate from your purchase here, because DC charge points come with their own fixed lead. Your cable is for AC charging at 7 kW.
What length cable suits a Jaguar E-PACE?
Five metres is plenty when the wall box sits next to the parking space and you always arrive the same way round. Choose 10m if you reverse onto the drive, park across a wide garage, or rely on kerbside posts where the bay is never in the same place. Length has no effect on the 7 kW charge rate.
