Overview

A simple adapter power source, MG only

Please note: we have had reports that the latest deliveries (06/2023) of MG ZS models have had the V2L function disabled or removed. Confirm with your dealer before ordering.

Vehicle to Load, sometimes called Vehicle to Device (V2D), turns the car into a portable mains supply. This cable does exactly that for the MG ZS (2022), MG 5 (facelifted 2023), MG4 (2022), MG Cyberster and MG Marvel R. Plug it into the Type 2 charge port, select the discharge option on the car's infotainment display, and you have a socket to work from. Load capacity is up to 2.5kW depending on the model, which is enough for camping kit well away from any hook-up, tools at the far end of a garden, or a kettle and a laptop on a long day out.

Important: a V2L cable must never be connected to another electrical system. There is no voltage or phase synchronisation, so doing this will void your vehicle warranty and can seriously damage both the connected system and the car.

Cable and rating

  • 16A, 3G1.5, 10.5mm diameter
  • IP44 rated: it will work in dusty conditions and shrug off splashes while mated, but the connection is not fully sealed and the cable must never be submerged

Looking after it

Keep the cable out of puddles. Storing it outside is fine. Fit the rubber dust cover whenever the cable is not in use, since debris collecting in the connector is easily avoided and easily regretted. Moisture is the problem we see most often, and the pin corrosion it causes is not covered by warranty.

Worth knowing about rain: water finds its way into the plug and the charge socket as you insert and remove it. The moment you open the charge port or unplug the car, rain lands on the pins and stays there until the next time you connect. A dry moment and a dust cap go a long way. More options in our V2L adapters range.

The rest of the MG range sits on our MG charging cables page.

FAQs

Will it work with my MG ZS?
It is made for the MG ZS (2022) among other models, but read this first: we have had reports that the latest deliveries (06/2023) of MG ZS models have had the V2L function disabled or removed. Confirm with your dealer before ordering.
Which other MGs does it fit?
The MG 5 (facelifted 2023), MG4 (2022), MG Cyberster and MG Marvel R, alongside the 2022 ZS. It is an MG-only cable.
What will it run?
Load capacity is up to 2.5kW depending on the model, which is enough for camping kit well away from any hook-up, tools at the far end of a garden, or a kettle and a laptop on a long day out.
Can I connect it to another electrical system?
No. A V2L cable must never be connected to another electrical system. There is no voltage or phase synchronisation, so doing this will void your vehicle warranty and can seriously damage both the connected system and the car.
Does the car need to support V2L?
Yes. You select the discharge option on the infotainment display, so the function must be present in the vehicle. That is exactly why the 06/2023 ZS note above matters.
How do I keep it working properly?
Keep the cable out of puddles, storing it outside is fine. Fit the rubber dust cover whenever the cable is not in use, since debris collecting in the connector is easily avoided and easily regretted. Moisture is the problem we see most often, and the pin corrosion it causes is not covered by warranty.

What customers say about us

  • First class service

    First class service. Ordered 15m cable and it was delivered next day. Minor hiccup in that the accompanying bag was missing. Quick email to Jake at EV Cable Hub and the bag arrived next working day. 1st class product and even better customer service. Thank you.
