Peugeot e-2008 EV charger: overview per version
The Peugeot e-2008 SUV comes in several versions, and that choice decides which charger makes sense. The original e-2008 charges at home with up to 7.4 kW on a single phase, via a Type 2 connector. The newer 50kWh and 54kWh versions charge with 11 kW across three phases. Those use all three phases of your electrical connection. Worth knowing: a three-phase charger charges the original version more slowly, not faster. You can also compare all Peugeot EV chargers in our overview.
For the Peugeot e-2008 SUV we recommend a charger from our 7.4 kW range.
The newer 50kWh and 54kWh versions charge three-phase, so those suit an 11 kW charger.

| e-2008 SUV (original) | 45 kWh | 7.4 kW (single-phase) | Type 2 | This page |
| e-2008 50 kWh | 46 kWh | 11 kW (three-phase) | Type 2 | Peugeot e-2008 50 kWh |

Which EV charger suits the standard e-2008 SUV?
The original e-2008 SUV has a 7.4 kW onboard charger and charges over one phase. An 11 kW charger runs on three phases and delivers 16 A per phase. This car uses one phase, so it would charge at 3.7 kW, which is slower than a 7.4 kW charger.
On a single-phase connection you get the full power. Check that enough current stays free for the rest of your house. A charger with load balancing keeps that in hand. It adjusts the charging power automatically to what your cabinet can handle.
A calibrated kWh meter is worth considering as well. It measures the electricity you charge at home separately from your household use. You then know exactly what charging costs.
At 7.4 kW our range holds no charger with such a meter built in. Chargers with a built-in MID certified meter (MID is the EU measuring instruments standard) start at 11 kW and are three-phase. If you stay on 7.4 kW, an electrician can fit a separate certified meter in your electrical cabinet instead. Our home charger range gives the full picture of what we offer for charging at home.
How long does the Peugeot e-2008 SUV take to charge?
Work with the usable battery of 45 kWh and the maximum charging power of 7.4 kW. Charging a nearly empty battery full on a 7.4 kW charger takes about 6 hours, which fits an overnight session. On a normal socket with a portable charger (2.3 kW) it runs to almost a full day. Keep that as a backup. Drive one of the newer 11 kW versions? Then charging is noticeably faster, and the matching version page has the details.
Which connector and cable does the e-2008 need?
The Peugeot e-2008 uses a Type 2 connector, the same one almost every modern charger in Europe uses. Charging at home on a charger with a fixed cable means you need nothing else. Do you want to charge at another charging point? Then a Type 2 charging cable is useful.

Frequently asked questions about the Peugeot e-2008
Does an 11 kW charger charge my standard e-2008 SUV faster?
No. The standard e-2008 SUV charges over one phase at a maximum of 7.4 kW. An 11 kW charger runs on three phases and delivers 16 A per phase. This car uses one phase, so it would charge at 3.7 kW, which is slower than a 7.4 kW charger. More power only pays off if you later switch to a car with a three-phase onboard charger.
Which e-2008 version do I have?
The original e-2008 SUV has a 7.4 kW charger on one phase. The later models, labelled 50kWh and 54kWh, charge at 11 kW across three phases. Not sure? Check the vehicle documents for the build year and the battery capacity, then use the version page that matches.
Do I need to have the charger installed?
Rules differ per country, so check what applies where you live. We always recommend a connection by a qualified electrician. That is safer and it matters for your insurance. We arrange installation in the Netherlands, Flemish Belgium and Germany. In Germany that runs through a free quote instead of a bookable installation. We ship chargers worldwide, but installation stays limited to those three countries.
