Both use the same 77 kWh usable pack out of an 82 kWh gross battery, and both use the same charger. A 58 kWh version joined the range in May 2026 with the same hardware again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSo the trim decision and the cable decision are completely independent of each other. Whichever Tavascan is on the driveway, the lead is the same one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the manufacturer time does not match your driveway\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA car quoted at 11 kW or 22 kW is quoting a three phase figure, and a single phase British house will give it 7.4 kW. A 32A single phase cable therefore carries everything the car can take at home, and nothing further is worth paying for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOne database puts the consequence in plain terms for this car: in practice the charge power will often be 7.4 kW, giving a full charge in twelve and a quarter hours. That is a longer number than Cupra publishes, and it is the honest one for a British house. It is not a fault in the car and it is not something a heavier cable fixes; it is simply what one phase carries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow long a full charge takes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCable\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePower drawn at home\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eEmpty to full, 77 kWh battery\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRange added per hour\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType 2, 32A single phase at home\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7.4 kW\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e11 hours 45 mins\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eabout 26 miles\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType 2, three phase at 11 kW\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e11.0 kW\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8 hours\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eabout 38 miles\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType 2, 16A\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.7 kW\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e23 hours 30 mins\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eabout 13 miles\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType 2 to 3 Pin from a socket\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.3 kW\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e37 hours 45 mins\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eabout 8 miles\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe arithmetic is simple: kWh over kW, 13 per cent on top for losses, rounded to the nearest quarter hour. Miles per hour is worked at 3.5 miles per kWh, a figure that survives a cold morning. Twelve hours from genuinely flat is a number worth understanding rather than planning around, because a Tavascan almost never arrives home empty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor the long journeys the car has a 135 kW DC connection and a ten to eighty stop of about 28 minutes. The pattern that saves the money, though, is the boring one: plug in, go to bed, wake up full.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhich length for a Tavascan\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe charge flap is on the offside rear quarter panel, which on a 4.64 metre coupe SUV puts it a long way from the nose. If your wall box sits near the house and you reverse in, the run is short. If you drive in forwards, you are routing the lead the length of the car before it reaches anything.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn that basis we would call \u003ca href=\"\/products\/10m-ev-charging-cables\"\u003e10 metres\u003c\/a\u003e the default for a Tavascan and 5 metres the choice only where the charge point is close to the rear offside corner as the car actually parks. The measurement that counts is the one taken with the car in its usual spot, plus a margin for the slack the lead needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow these cables are built\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a CE marked IEC 62196-2 cable, IP55 against the weather, rated to work between -30C and +50C.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/type-2-to-3-pin-charging-cable\"\u003eThree pin lead\u003c\/a\u003es are made to IEC 62752, CE marked and IP67 sealed, with a -30C to +60C specification.
