Cargadores para Citroen

The Citroen range holds 2 versions with a Type 1 connector and those are the only cars of this brand for which we match the B35, a 3.7 kW portable charger with a Type 1 plug. The other 29 versions use Type 2. A Type 2 plug physically will not enter a Type 1 socket, so here the connector matters, not the power.

Because the brand spans 10 models and 31 versions from the 2011-2026 model years. Fourteen versions accept 7.4 kW and get a Q74, eight have 11 kW and we point to a Q11, seven top out at 3.7 kW with a Q37, and two with a Type 1 connector require a B35.

The model year and version decide, because both powers occur in the Citroen range: 7.4 kW in 14 versions and 11 kW in 8. The surest place to find it is the car's manual, in the section on AC charging. Send us the model year and version and we will point you to a Q74 or a Q11.

The highest capacity we record for this brand is 96.9 kWh. At 11 kW a full charge from empty takes roughly 9 to 10 hours; at 7.4 kW it stretches to 13 or 14 hours. That is why with large packs it is worth checking whether the car really does accept 11 kW.

This range holds 8 plug-in hybrid versions, and their batteries start at 11.3 kWh, nearly nine times less than the largest electric pack. Such a battery fills in around 2 hours even with a portable charger or a 7.4 kW wallbox, so there is no reason to reach for a Q11 in reserve.

Only if that particular version really does have 11 kW onboard. If the car tops out at 7.4 kW, as 14 versions in the range do, a Q11 will deliver exactly the same as a Q74. Neither a portable charger nor a wallbox can ever force a car to take more power than the manufacturer allowed.
