Since the I-Pace was first announced and released in 2018, it has become one of Europe's most popular EVs and has sold over 40,000 units.

The Jaguar I-Pace is well known for its elegant design, range of functions, and large battery. If you’re lucky enough to own a Jaguar I-Pace, this guide will tell you everything you need to know about charging a Jaguar I-Pace.

Jaguar I-Pace Specifications

The Jaguar I-Pace has a top speed of 124 mph and can reach 60 miles an hour in just 4 and a half seconds. This is much faster than many of its competitors in the market. It has a range of 292 miles which is also above average for EVs. It has an extensive range due to its larger-than-average battery size of 90 kWh.

Jaguar I-Pace Charging Speed 

The Jaguar I-Pace’s large battery allows you to go further and longer without charging; however, its battery size also means it takes longer to charge. It can charge at a max speed of 11 kW with AC charging and can charge up to 100 kW with DC charging. This means that if you were to charge it from 0 - 100% at its max speed, it would take 54 minutes.

However, you shouldn't charge from 0 - 100% often, as charging to 100% too often can damage your battery life. It would be best if you didn't allow your battery to drain to 0% either. Instead, keep its charge between 80 - 90% to give it the most extended life possible.

What Is The Jaguar I-Pace’s Charger Type?

The Jaguar I-Pace uses the Type 2 connector for AC charging; this connector is often referred to as the Mennekes after the German manufacturer that designed it. It is the standard AC connector for Europe. It allows the I-Pace to charge up to 11 kW. You'll find chargers for the Type 2 connector at home, at work, or on some public charging networks.

It uses the CCS connector for DC charging. It can charge up to 100 kW using the CCS connector, the standard European connector for DC charging. Generally, you'll only use this at public charging stations as it is used for rapid and ultra-rapid charging. These two connectors are combined to create the CCS 2 connector, which you plug into your charging port.

Where Is The Charging Port On A Jaguar I-Pace?

It's very straightforward to charge the Jaguar I-Pace. All you have to do is plug the CCS 2 into the charging inlet. You can find the charging port on the left side of the EV above the front wheel. Once you plug it in, you should be ready to charge.

If you're charging at a public charging station, you might need an RFID card or an app enabling you to charge within public charging networks.

How Long Does It Take To Charge A Jaguar I-Pace?

The charging time of the Jaguar I-Pace depends on which charger you use. There are many different charging speeds available in the UK. Each has its purpose. Slow chargers are suitable for charging overnight and can be installed at home, while rapid chargers are much faster but are situated at public charging stations.

Other factors that impact Jaguar I-Pace's charging time are the car's temperature, ambient temperature, in-vehicle energy loads, battery life, and battery condition.

Because you shouldn't charge your EV up to 100% regularly, we've calculated how long it would take to get from 10 -80% charge using the following charging speeds. There are many other charging speeds that we don't cover, but these are some of the more common charging speeds.

Charging SpeedConnector TypeTime To Charge The Jaguar I-Pace (10 - 80%)
2.3 kW (BS 1363 Plug)Domestic Adapter For The Type 2 Connector 1 Day, 3 Hours, 24 minutes
3.6 kW ChargerType 2 Connector17 Hours, 30 minutes
7 kW ChargerType 2 Connector9 Hours
22 kW ChargerType 2 Connector5 Hours, 45 Minutes
50 kW ChargerCCS Connector1 Hour, 15 Minutes
100 kW ChargerCCS Connector36 Minutes

The BS 1363 Plug (3 Pin UK Plug Socket)

The BS 1363 plug is the standard plug socket in your home. You can buy a domestic adapter cable for your Jaguar I-Pace, allowing it to charge using your home's electricity. This option can be very convenient. Don't use it too much, as it can damage your home's wiring over time, and never use an extension lead to charge your EV.

How Long Does It Take To Fully Charge?

The BS 1363's charging output varies, but on average, it charges at 2.3 kW. This is one of the slowest ways to charge the Jaguar I-Pace. It would take 1 day, 3 hours, and 24 minutes to charge the Jaguar I-Pace's battery from 10 - 80% charge using your home socket.

3.6 kW Charger

You can find 3.6 kW chargers in many locations, such as at work, home, and some off-street public charging points, although they're not a typical charging speed at most public charging networks. If you want a 3.6 kW charger in your home, you have to get a wall box charger for which you can get grants.

This slow charger works best when you use them to top-up your Jaguar I-Pace or leave them on charge overnight or over a similarly long time.

How Long Does It Take To Fully Charge?

It would take 17 hours and 30 minutes to charge the Jaguar I-Pace from 10 - 80% using the 3.6 kW charger.

7 kW Charger

7 kW chargers are slow chargers that use the Type 2 connector for AC charging. They can be found at home, at work, or in public charging networks.

How Long Does It Take To Fully Charge?

Although these are faster than the two previous options, they'll still take a long time to charge your EV; as such, they are best used to top-up or charge for extended periods. It would take 9 hours to charge the Jaguar I-Pace from 10 - 80% using the 7 kW charger. This makes it perfect for overnight charging.

22 kW Charger

These fast chargers use the Type 2 connector for AC charging. These speeds are found mainly at public charging stations, although some only provide 50 kW+ charging speeds. You can find these speeds at some workplaces.

These chargers likely charge above your AC connector's max speed, so they will charge most EVs, including the Jaguar I-Pace, as fast as possible.

How Long Does It Take To Fully Charge?

The Jaguar I-Pace has a max AC charging speed of 11 kW, which means they don't charge to the full potential of the 22 kW charger. It would take 5 hours and 45 minutes to charge the Jaguar I-Pace from 10 - 80% battery.

50 kW Charger

The 50 kW charger is a rapid charger that uses the CCS connector for DC charging. This is the country's most common DC charging speed. Chargers of this speed are exclusively found at public charging stations.

How Long Does It Take To Fully Charge?

It would take 1 hour and 15 minutes to charge the Jaguar I-Pace from 10 - 80% using this charger. 

Ultra Rapid Chargers

There are many different ultra-rapid charging speeds. Generally, anything above 100 kW is considered an ultra-rapid charger. There are ultra-rapid chargers in the UK that can charge at speeds of 350 kW. However, the Jaguar I-Pace cannot use them to their full potential as its max DC speed is 100 kW. 

Ultra-rapid chargers aren't too common in the UK, and only select public charging stations provide them.

How Long Does It Take To Fully Charge?

Using a 100 kW charger to charge your Jaguar I-Pace from 10 - 80% power would take 36 minutes.

Where Can You Charge Your Jaguar I-Pace?

You can charge your Jaguar I-Pace in the UK in many locations, although you can narrow this down into three options. Home charging, workplace charging, and public charging.

Each option has pros and cons, which you should understand before choosing where to charge.

Home Charging

Charging at home is probably the most convenient way to charge your Jaguar I-Pace. You can purchase home chargers for your home, which generally charge at speeds between 3.6 kW chargers and 7 kW chargers. 

You can also get a domestic adapter for your Type 2 connector, which will let you charge with your plugs. These are slow chargers.

Pros

The best time to charge your EV at home is overnight. Home chargers aren't high-speed, so it makes sense to charge your EV when you don't need it. It's also much cheaper to charge in non-peak hours, so it makes the most sense to charge your I-Pace at night.

A home charging station can supply you with reliable energy for your EV, and grants are available to help EV owners install a charging point in their homes.

The OZEV Chargepoint Grant gives you up to £350 or 75% off the cost of a fully installed chargepoint if you meet specific criteria. There is also the Scotland-exclusive EST Domestic Chargepoint Grant which is up to £300 and can be used alongside the OZEV Chargepoint Grant.

Cons

Home charging takes a long time. Even if you get a faster home charging point (7 kW), it'll still take hours to charge your Jaguar I-Pace. Also, if you charge during peak hours, the prices aren't too much lower than public charging stations, despite being much slower. 

If you decide to use a domestic adapter to charge your car, you should be careful, as overusing it can damage your home's wiring and cost you money.

Charging At Work

More and more companies are offering charging points for EVs at their workplaces. These are very convenient as they allow EV owners to charge while at work, and their car is otherwise dormant. Chargers at workplaces tend to be slow or fast chargers. The most common workplace charging speed is 7 kW.

Pros

Charging at home can save you a substantial amount of money. It means you won't have to pay for a home charging point, and many employers pay for your EV charging. This is a convenient way to charge your Jaguar I-Pace.

Cons

Not all employers provide work charging, so this may not be an option for you. Many workplaces make you pay for your EV charging if they do provide it. This will be expensive as it'll be at peak hour prices instead of charging at night at home.

Public Charging Stations

You can find public charging stations all over the UK, and the fastest public charging points can charge at speeds of up to 350 kW. Not all public charging stations provide rapid chargers.

Pros

Public charging stations are the only places to get rapid and ultra-rapid charging speeds (+ 50 kW). These are fast and usually located in convenient places. There are so many public charging points in the country that there is almost certainly one near where you live. Some public charging stations are free, like Tesla Destination or Pod Point's Tesco charging points. 

Cons

The biggest issue with public charging stations is too much variety. No charging networks provide the same speeds at the same prices, and not all networks cater to the entire country. Finding the perfect charging station can be complicated.

Charging at home is probably the most convenient way to charge your Jaguar I-Pace. You can purchase home chargers for your home, which generally charge at speeds between 3.6 kW chargers and 7 kW chargers. 

You can also get a domestic adapter for your Type 2 connector, which will let you charge with your plugs. These are slow chargers.

Pros

The best time to charge your EV at home is overnight. Home chargers aren't high-speed, so it makes sense to charge your EV when you don't need it. It's also much cheaper to charge in non-peak hours, so it makes the most sense to charge your I-Pace at night.

A home charging station can supply you with reliable energy for your EV, and grants are available to help EV owners install a charging point in their homes.

The OZEV Chargepoint Grant gives you up to £350 or 75% off the cost of a fully installed chargepoint if you meet specific criteria. There is also the Scotland-exclusive EST Domestic Chargepoint Grant which is up to £300 and can be used alongside the OZEV Chargepoint Grant.

Cons

Home charging takes a long time. Even if you get a faster home charging point (7 kW), it'll still take hours to charge your Jaguar I-Pace. Also, if you charge during peak hours, the prices aren't too much lower than public charging stations, despite being much slower. 

If you decide to use a domestic adapter to charge your car, you should be careful, as overusing it can damage your home's wiring and cost you money.

Charging At Work

More and more companies are offering charging points for EVs at their workplaces. These are very convenient as they allow EV owners to charge while at work, and their car is otherwise dormant. Chargers at workplaces tend to be slow or fast chargers. The most common workplace charging speed is 7 kW.

Pros

Charging at home can save you a substantial amount of money. It means you won't have to pay for a home charging point, and many employers pay for your EV charging. This is a convenient way to charge your Jaguar I-Pace.

Cons

Not all employers provide work charging, so this may not be an option for you. Many workplaces make you pay for your EV charging if they do provide it. This will be expensive as it'll be at peak hour prices instead of charging at night at home.

Public Charging Stations

You can find public charging stations all over the UK, and the fastest public charging points can charge at speeds of up to 350 kW. Not all public charging stations provide rapid chargers.

Pros

Public charging stations are the only places to get rapid and ultra-rapid charging speeds (+ 50 kW). These are fast and usually located in convenient places. There are so many public charging points in the country that there is almost certainly one near where you live. Some public charging stations are free, like Tesla Destination or Pod Point's Tesco charging points. 

Cons

The biggest issue with public charging stations is too much variety. No charging networks provide the same speeds at the same prices, and not all networks cater to the entire country. Finding the perfect charging station can be complicated.
