Skoda Superb Charging cable

The Škoda Superb iV pairs a 1.5 TSI petrol engine with an electric motor for a combined 204 PS, backed by a 25.7 kWh battery (19.7 kWh usable) that delivers up to 84 miles of pure-electric range. The 11 kW three-phase onboard charger completes a full charge in around two and a half hours on a three-phase supply, or around three hours at a single-phase 7.4 kW home wallbox. The Superb iV is also the first Škoda PHEV to support DC fast charging, accepting up to 50 kW via CCS2 for a 10–80% charge in around 26 minutes. The Type 2 and CCS2 charge ports sit on the front wing.

Why regular charging matters at 84 miles of range

The Superb iV's 84-mile electric range is among the highest of any current PHEV, enough to cover most daily driving without the petrol engine starting at all. That advantage depends on plugging in daily. With a three-hour full charge on a home wallbox, the routine is straightforward: plug in when you park, unplug when you leave. Owners who skip the plug are carrying over 25 kWh of battery weight without using it, which increases fuel consumption rather than reducing it.

Choosing the right charging cable

A 22 kW Voldt® Type 2 charging cable is the right match for the Superb iV. The car's charger can draw 32A on a single-phase wallbox (7.4 kW), and only a 22 kW cable carries conductors rated for that full current. An 11 kW three-phase cable restricts a single-phase wallbox to a single 16A conductor, cutting the charge rate to 3.7 kW and stretching a three-hour charge to over five hours. On a PHEV designed for daily plug-in use, that difference matters.

The front-wing port suits nose-in parking well. A 4 or 6-metre cable covers most home driveways comfortably. An 8-metre cable is the practical standard for mixed home and public use. The Superb is a long car, so a 10-metre cable is worth considering if your wallbox is not directly beside the parking position. A 15-metre cable covers hotel car parks and longer driveways without difficulty.

Portable charging on the move

The Voldt® portable CEE charging cable delivers output up to 11 kW via three-phase CEE, matched to the Superb's onboard charger. At a red three-phase 16A CEE socket, the car charges at its full 11 kW: a complete charge in around two and a half hours. The blue single-phase 16A CEE sockets typical of campsites and caravan hookups deliver 3.7 kW, enough for a full charge in around five and a half hours: comfortably within an overnight window.

The Voldt® Schuko portable charger draws 2.3 kW (10A safe limit) from a standard domestic socket. A full charge takes around nine hours: an overnight affair, but perfectly manageable for a 19.7 kWh battery.
