Peugeot e-Traveller 75kWh EV charger: which one fits best?
The Peugeot e-Traveller 75kWh is a roomy eight-seat electric van with a large battery. At home it charges at 7.4 kW as standard. That is AC charging, or alternating current. Your home supplies AC, and the car's on-board charger converts it to DC for the battery.
The e-Traveller uses a single phase of your supply. That is one of the three power lines coming into your fuse box. The van also comes as a 50kWh version. Our overview of all Peugeot EV chargers covers both versions.
For the Peugeot e-Traveller 75kWh we recommend a charger from our 7.4 kW EV chargers.

Which EV charger fits the Peugeot e-Traveller 75kWh?
Start with the standard version, since the 11 kW on-board charger is an option you have to order. It draws 7.4 kW from one phase, at 32 amps. A single-phase 7.4 kW charger therefore gives you its full speed.
A heavier charger does not help here, and it can even slow you down. An 11 kW charger supplies 16 A per phase. The standard van uses only one phase, so it would drop to 3.7 kW.
Did you order the optional 11 kW on-board charger? Then a charger from our 11 kW EV chargers uses all three phases. That saves you about three hours per full charge. Check your order if you are not sure which version you have.
One thing to know before you choose. A MID meter is a certified electricity meter built into the charger. Because it sits inside the charger, it keeps your charging separate from the rest of your household use. Because it is certified, the reading is legally valid rather than an estimate.
You will find chargers with that meter in our 11 kW and 22 kW ranges, not in the 7.4 kW range. If a certified record matters to you, compare the EV chargers with MID meter before you decide.
The e-Traveller has a Type 2 socket, the same connection these chargers use. At home you charge straight from the charger itself. On most public AC chargers you plug in your own Type 2 charging cable. Our home EV chargers are the models made for a driveway or a garage, an easy place to start.
How long does the Peugeot e-Traveller 75kWh take to charge?
With about 69 kWh of usable battery you have two scenarios. On the standard 7.4 kW on-board charger a full charge takes roughly 9.5 hours. That is empty to full across one night.
With the optional 11 kW on-board charger that drops to about 6.5 hours. Plug the van in during the evening and it is ready for a full working day either way.

Frequently asked questions
Does the Peugeot e-Traveller 75kWh need a three-phase EV charger?
Not in the standard version. That van charges at 7.4 kW over a single phase, so a single-phase connection is enough. A three-phase 11 kW charger would even slow it to 3.7 kW. It only pays off if you ordered the 11 kW on-board charger.
Do I need an EV charger with a MID meter?
That depends on what you want to do with the figures. Because the meter sits inside the charger, it keeps your charging separate from the rest of your household use. Because it is certified, the reading is legally valid rather than an estimate. You will find chargers with that meter in our 11 kW and 22 kW ranges.
We always recommend having the connection made by a qualified electrician. That is safer and it matters for your insurance. We arrange installation in the Netherlands, Flemish Belgium and Germany, and in Germany that runs through a free quote. Outside those three countries we ship the charger but do not install it.
