Choosing the right cable for your Rolls-Royce

The Spectre is a full electric car rather than a plug-in hybrid, which sets it apart from most of the cars at this end of the market. It has a large battery, a genuinely fast onboard AC charger, and it takes real time to fill from a domestic supply.

Connector spec by model

  • Spectre (2023+): Type 2 + CCS. Up to 22kW AC. Around 102kWh battery. 195kW DC.

One of the few cars that can use a 22kW lead

Most electric cars cap at 11kW on AC and many at 7.4kW. The Spectre's onboard charger goes to 22kW, so on a three-phase supply it will use the whole of a three-phase cable. On a 102kWh battery that is the difference between roughly fourteen hours and about five.

The question is the property, not the car

Three-phase power is uncommon in British homes, though rather more common on the kind of property a Spectre tends to live at. If the supply is single-phase the car draws 7.4kW whatever cable is fitted, and the 32amp lead is the right buy. It is worth asking your electrician rather than assuming either way.

Charging where the car is stored

Spectres are frequently kept in a garage or outbuilding some distance from the main consumer unit, and often moved by someone other than the owner. A longer lead removes the daily judgement about whether the car is parked close enough.

Length recommendations

The Spectre is over five metres long. 10m is a minimum and 15m is reasonable. Compare across our Type 2 charging cables.

What we stock for Rolls-Royce

  • Type 2 to Type 2 cables from 5m to 20m, including the 22kW three-phase lead.
  • Type 2 to 3-pin Mode 2 leads as a backup.

Questions

Should I buy the 22kW three-phase cable for a Spectre?
If the property has three-phase power, yes. The Spectre is one of few cars with a 22kW onboard charger, and on a 102kWh battery it takes a full charge from around fourteen hours to about five.
What if my supply is single-phase?
Then the 32amp lead is the right buy. The car draws 7.4kW whatever cable is fitted on a single-phase supply.
How do I find out which supply I have?
Ask your electrician or check the consumer unit. It is not something you can tell from the wallbox.
What length should I choose?
10m minimum, 15m if the car is stored away from the main building. It is over five metres long.
Is the Spectre a hybrid?
No. It is a full electric car, unlike most plug-ins in this segment.
