Chery's own right hand drive specification sheet records it as passenger side rear, and the same layout appears on the closely related Omoda 9.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBeing on the nearside is a small everyday advantage at a kerbside charge point, since the socket faces the pavement. On a driveway it simply means measuring to the left hand rear corner, and on a 4.8 metre SUV that is a difference of a couple of metres against the other car in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA much bigger battery on the same charger\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 6.6 kW rating is a single phase rating, which means it is also the rating you get at home. About 29 amps at 230 volts is comfortably within a domestic supply, so this car is as quick on a driveway as it is anywhere else in the country.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe interesting part is what that charger is attached to. Where the Jaecoo 7 carries 18.4 kWh, the 8 carries 34.46 kWh at 322 volts, with a pack weight of 228 kg, for 83 miles of electric range WLTP. Jaecoo UK quotes a full charge in 5.5 hours, which divides out at 6.27 kW and confirms the 6.6 kW rating on a much larger pack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOne figure on Jaecoo's own page should be ignored. It lists an AC charging time of 20 minutes for 30 to 80 per cent alongside an identical DC figure. Half of a 34.46 kWh battery in twenty minutes would need 51.7 kW on alternating current, eight times what the car can take, so that row is a duplicated DC value. The valid AC figure on the same page is the 5.5 hour one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eRapid charging and vehicle-to-load\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDC charging is 70 kW, with thirty to eighty per cent in twenty minutes per Jaecoo UK and twenty-five on the export sheet. Both are consistent with a 70 kW peak. On a battery this size a twenty minute stop is genuinely useful rather than decorative.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eVehicle-to-load is 6.6 kW, which is double the Jaecoo 7's figure and enough to run real tools rather than a kettle. Battery chemistry is disputed between the official sheet and the UK press, so we will leave it out rather than pick a side.\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, 34.46 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 at 6.6 kW, the car maximum\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6.6 kW\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6 hours\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eabout 23 miles\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType 2, 16A at 3.6 kW\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.6 kW\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10 hours 45 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\u003e17 hours\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\u003eThose times come from dividing the pack by the delivered power and adding 13 per cent for losses, then rounding to the quarter hour. Miles per hour is worked at 3.5 miles per kWh, a figure that survives a cold morning. Jaecoo publishes one unlabelled capacity figure with no gross or usable split, so the table uses 34.46 kWh as given.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSix and a half hours is a night rather than an evening, which is the price of 83 miles of electric range in a plug-in hybrid. On a cheap overnight tariff that is a lot of very inexpensive driving. The ceiling is the car, so a heavier cable finishes at the same time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhich length for a Jaecoo 8\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMeasure to the nearside rear corner. The Jaecoo 8 is a large SUV at 4.8 metres, priced from 45,500, and with a socket at the back it is a ten metre car on most driveways.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFifteen metres suits a detached garage or a charge point on the far side of the house. Five metres only works where the car reverses in and the wall box sits beside that rear corner. Park the car where it normally lives, walk the run with a tape, and buy the next size up from what you measure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow these cables are built\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe lead is an IEC 62196-2 design, CE marked, IP55 sealed against a British winter and rated from -30C to +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.
