Range Rover Evoque EV charger: which one fits best?
The Range Rover Evoque P300e is a plug-in hybrid. It charges at home on a single phase, at up to 7.0 kW, through a Type 2 connector. The battery is small and the onboard charger sets the ceiling. A 7.4 kW charger therefore matches the car exactly. A heavier 22 kW charger adds nothing here. Want to compare more broadly? See our charging advice for every Land Rover EV charger.
For the Range Rover Evoque we recommend a charger from our 7.4 kW EV chargers.

Which EV charger suits the Range Rover Evoque?
The Evoque P300e charges at home on one phase, at up to 7.0 kW. A 7.4 kW charger gives the car its full speed. That is the match you are looking for.
An 11 kW charger is not a step up here. It supplies 3 x 16 A, and this car uses only one of those phases. It would then drop to 3.7 kW, so it charges more slowly rather than faster. A 22 kW charger does not have that problem: it supplies 3 x 32 A, so the Evoque keeps its full 7.0 kW. It just will not charge any faster than 7.0 kW either.
There is one catch at this power level. A MID meter is a certified kWh meter. It records your charging separately from the rest of your household use. In our range no 7.4 kW charger has one built in.
You can see where it does exist in our EV chargers with a MID meter. Almost all of them are 22 kW models, and on a 22 kW charger the Evoque still gets its full 7.0 kW.
What does work well at 7.4 kW is app control. With an EV charger with an app you start and stop a session from your phone. If you want a simple, no-frills charger, our EV chargers for home use are a good place to start.

How long does the Range Rover Evoque P300e take to charge?
The Evoque has a usable battery of 11.5 kWh. At 7.0 kW it goes from empty to full in about two hours. That figure includes charging losses. Plug it in during the evening and you leave with a full battery every morning.
For a plug-in hybrid that works nicely. You top up easily for short trips and fall back on the petrol engine over longer distances. The Evoque has a Type 2 connector, just like most EV chargers. So you can connect a 7.4 kW EV charger directly, without an adapter.
Installing your EV charger
We always recommend having the connection made by a qualified electrician. That is safer and it matters for your insurance.
At Wallbox Discounter you can order your charger on its own, or arrange installation with it. We arrange installation in the Netherlands, Flemish Belgium and Germany. In the Netherlands and Flemish Belgium you add it to your order. In Germany you start with a free quote. We ship worldwide, but installation is limited to those three countries. You can read the conditions on our installation page.

Frequently asked questions
Does the Range Rover Evoque need a 22 kW EV charger?
No. The Evoque P300e charges at up to 7.0 kW on one phase, even on a heavier charger. The onboard charger sets that limit. A 7.4 kW charger matches the car exactly, so you do not pay for speed it cannot use.
Do I need an EV charger with a MID meter?
A MID meter is a certified kWh meter. It records your charging accurately and separately from your household use. So you can see what charging at home costs. At 7.4 kW our range does not offer one yet. If a certified meter matters to you, look at the 22 kW chargers. Almost the whole MID range sits there, and your Evoque keeps its full 7.0 kW. Avoid an 11 kW charger: that one would drop the car to 3.7 kW.
