Like most modern EVs, the Smart #1 (2023) uses type 2 cables for charging.

It's very important to invest in high-quality charging cables if you want your car to reach full charge quickly. Cheap, badly made cables won't be able to carry the electric current properly to the battery, leading to energy loss and even potential battery damage.

At Smartly, we stock two types of high-quality type 2 cables that will help you to get an efficient charge for your EV:

Smartly Type 2 to Type 2 cables

You can use our vehicle selector tool to see all products we stock that are compatible with your vehicle.

As a battery electric vehicle that is fully powered by its battery, the Smart #1 (2023) can use a wide range of chargers, including:

⚡️3-pin emergency chargers.

⚡️3.6kW chargers.

⚡️7kW chargers.

⚡️22kW chargers.

⚡️50kW chargers.

⚡️150kW chargers.

Home charging is an efficient way to ensure your car gets the charge it needs to keep moving.

Installing an EV charger at your home will also help you save money as you won't have to rely solely on expensive public chargers and can make the most of perks such as off-peak energy times by charging overnight.

For home charging set-ups, we recommend a single-phase 7kW charger. This will give you the perfect charging efficiency for your Smart #1 (2023).

We also have a range of three-phase chargers; however, these are more suited to commercial charging, as most homes will not have a compatible three-phase energy supply.

Here are just some of the chargers we stock:

⚡️Easee One 

⚡️Wallbox Pulsar Max

⚡️MyEnergi Zappi

You can find the full selection of chargers on our website. We do not recommend three-phase chargers for home usage, as most homes will not have a suitable three-phase power supply to accommodate them.

For a full charge, a Smart #1 (2023) will take approximately:

● 24 hours using a 3kW emergency 3-pin charger.
● 20 hours using a 3.6kW charger.
● 10.5 hours using a 7kW charger
● Around 3.5 hours using a 22kW charger.

Using rapid public chargers, the Smart #1 (2023) can gain 20-80% charge in:

● Around 50 minutes using a 50kW charger.
● Around 20 minutes using a 150kW charger.
