how to charge a Renault E-Tech Electric vehicle

charging at home or at work

Your electric vehicle charges on the mains using the various cables available. If you have a 7.4kW or 11kW three-phase AC charging station, charging will be faster. Without a terminal, charging will be faster and safer on a reinforced socket than on a standard one.

on-the-road charging

With your charge pass charging card, you can charge your Renault away from home anywhere in the UK and across Europe, and benefit from special rates on the Ionity network. The charging points are listed on the My Renault app.¹ ⁹

  • an efficient solution for your daily charging, specifically designed for this purpose;
  • home charging is less expensive than charging at public stations. To maximize your savings, you can also add Mobilize smart charging.

charging with a reinforced or standard socket

  • recover up to 60 miles of WLTP driving range in 7 hours on a standard socket;​
  • recover up to 135 miles of WLTP driving range in 10 hours on a reinforced socket;​
  • if you do not have dedicated equipment available, the reinforced socket is designed to safely deliver power up to 3.7 kW (16 A);
  • ​as a last option, a standard plug can be used, although it is the slowest option with a power rating of 2.3 kW (10A).

public or home charging point cable

This charging cable allows you to charge your electric vehicle (depending on version) at a charging point of up to 11 kW. It is compatible with a public or home charging station, such as Mobilize powerbox.


Ideal for use during a medium-length stop (1 to 3 hours) with permanent monitoring of the charge by the charging point.

charging cable for standard or heavy-duty plugs

If there's no charging station at home, this cable can be used to charge your vehicle using a standard socket, or a reinforced 16 A socket for low-speed charging. It ensures charging safety and control through its built-in communication unit.
