Charging Cables for Volkswagen Passat / Golf GTE
Both models use a Type 2 (Mennekes) connector and have a maximum AC charging power of 3.7 kW. Both single-phase and three-phase cables can be used, with heavier cables not increasing charging speed but providing compatibility and convenience.
Wallbox Stations
The maximum charging power for the Passat / Golf GTE is 3.7 kW. Even when using a wallbox with significantly higher power (e.g., 7.4 or 11 kW), the car will charge at a maximum of 3.7 kW. The advantage is that if you plan to switch to a fully electric vehicle in the future, investing in a more powerful wallbox (11 or 22 kW) might be a sensible choice.
Mobile Charging Devices
Mobile wallbox stations (portable charging devices) are an extremely convenient and economical way to charge your Volkswagen Passat / Golf GTE from a regular home outlet. They support power outputs from 2.3 to 3.7 kW, making them an ideal choice for fully utilizing the hybrid battery’s capabilities.
