The E5 charges from the centre of the front grille, and the flap is not released from outside: the owner manual instructs you to open the front compartment cover, then pull the charging port cover rope, at which point the flap slides up. Do that once and you will remember it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe charge socket is at the front of the car rather than on a flank, which changes the length calculation entirely: you measure from the nose to the charge point, and whether you park nose in or reverse becomes the whole question rather than a detail. The German technical catalogue records this car as charging from the driver side rear, which is simply wrong: four sources including Omoda own UK owner manual place the socket in the front grille, and one of them describes the release procedure. If you have been given a cable length on the assumption of a rear socket, measure again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat the car takes, from its own manual\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe UK owner manual publishes the onboard charger performance directly, which is rarer than it should be. One hardware variant is listed as a maximum of 6.6 kW on a single phase and 9.9 kW on three; another is listed at 11 kW maximum. Either way the single phase figure is 6.6 kW.\u003c\/p\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. The Australian right hand drive specification sheet for the same car says \"6.6kW Single Phase \/ 10.3kW Three Phase\" and an electric vehicle association fact sheet gives the current as 30 amps. Every source that separates the phases lands on 6.6 kW; none says 7.4. A bigger cable cannot change this, because the limit sits in the car rather than the lead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBattery, range and a figure that is often misread\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOmoda UK quotes 61 kWh and 267 miles WLTP. The owner manual power battery table lists two packs, 61.0 and 58.9 kWh total energy, which are two hardware variants rather than a gross and usable pair - an independent database presents them as \"58.9 usable \/ 60.9 total\", which conflates them. No usable figure is published for either.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDC charging is best supported at 130 kW, with Omoda UK quoting thirty to eighty per cent in 28 minutes; Omoda Singapore says 80 kW. The arithmetic favours the higher figure: half of a 61 kWh pack in 28 minutes is a 65 kW average, which an 80 kW peak could only manage by holding 81 per cent of peak throughout. Vehicle-to-load is 3.3 kW, and the UK manual states that as a hard limit on connected appliances.\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, 58.9 kWh battery\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eEmpty to full, 61 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 single phase maximum\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6.6 kW\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10 hours\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10 hours 30 mins\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eabout 23 miles\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType 2, three phase at 9.9 kW\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9.9 kW\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6 hours 45 mins\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7 hours\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eabout 35 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\u003e18 hours 30 mins\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e19 hours 15 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\u003e29 hours\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e30 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\u003eHours are worked from battery size against power drawn, plus a 13 per cent allowance for what is lost as heat, rounded to fifteen minutes.
