The Ideal Charging Solutions for your Lightyear One: Essential Information
The Lightyear One is equipped with the most common European charging standards, making charging both at home and at public charging stations efficient and universal. The charging port is located on the right rear of the vehicle.
-
AC charging (Alternating Current): For charging at home and at public charging stations, the Lightyear One uses a Type 2 connector . This is the universal European standard for AC charging, also known as the Mennekes plug. Our Type 2 charging cables and home chargers are fully compatible and ensure a safe and efficient charging connection with your Lightyear One.
-
DC Fast Charging (Direct Current): For fast charging on the go, the Lightyear One is equipped with a CCS Combo 2 (CCS2) connector. This connector combines the Type 2 connector with two additional pins for DC charging. This allows you to quickly add significant range at compatible fast chargers—ideal for long journeys and quick stopovers.
Charging speed of your Lightyear One: Efficiency at its best
Understanding your Lightyear One's charging speeds helps you choose the right charging solutions to optimally and efficiently fill the 60 kWh battery. The Lightyear One is known for its extremely low energy consumption (approx. 10.5 kWh/100km WLTP), meaning every kWh is converted more efficiently into range.
-
Maximum AC Charging Speed (Home and Public): The Lightyear One can charge at up to 22 kW via AC. This is exceptionally fast for AC charging and means you can fully utilise your One's maximum AC charging speed with a suitable 3-phase (32A) home charger or public charging station. This will fully charge the 60 kWh battery from 0% to 100% in approximately 3 hours and 15 minutes . This is perfect for fully charging your Lightyear One overnight or during the workday, so it's ready for a new day every morning.
-
Maximum DC Fast-Charging Speed (On-the-Go): The Lightyear One can fast-charge at a peak DC rate of around 75 kW . While lower than some other premium EVs, given the car's extreme efficiency, it's still sufficient for quickly adding range. Using a compatible fast charger, this allows you to charge the battery from 10% to 80% in around 44 minutes . This means you can quickly add hundreds of kilometers of range during a quick stop, making long journeys effortless.
Lightyear One Charging Cables for Charging Stations
A high-quality and reliable Lightyear One charging cable is an essential accessory for efficient charging at public charging stations and your own home charging station. Our Type 2 charging cables are top-quality and ensure a safe, stable, and fast charging connection that matches the advanced nature of your Lightyear One.
-
Premium Quality & Durability: Our cables are made of robust and durable materials that can withstand intensive daily use and all weather conditions. They are supple, flexible, and easy to store in your vehicle, optionally with an elegant storage pouch or a handy cable holder for a tidy cargo area. Pay attention to the cable gauge and amperage specifications for optimal conductivity and durability at high power outputs.
-
Optimal Performance for 22 kW: For the Lightyear One, we recommend a 32-amp (22 kW) 3-phase Type 2 charging cable to take full advantage of the car's maximum AC charging speed. These cables are perfect for efficient charging at home and at public charging stations that support 22 kW. While single-phase cables are also compatible, they will not fully utilize the Lightyear One's charging speed.
-
Certified Safety: All our Lightyear One charging cables meet the strictest European safety standards (CE certified), for your peace of mind and that of your valuable vehicle.
Lightyear One Home Chargers: Ultimate Convenience at Home
Charge your Lightyear One easily and efficiently from the comfort and safety of your own home with our advanced home chargers . A dedicated Lightyear One charger (wallbox) offers ultimate convenience and ensures your solar-powered electric car is always fully charged and ready to go, allowing you to maximize its exceptional efficiency.
-
Portable Home Chargers (Mobile Chargers): Ideal for flexible charging, for example, during a holiday or as an emergency charger when you don't have access to a fixed charging station. These compact chargers can be easily connected to a standard earthed socket (Schuko) or, for faster charging, to a three-phase power connection (Cee-form). Please note that charging via a standard socket (maximum 2.3 kW) is slower and mainly suitable for emergencies or small top-ups. The Lightyear One is so efficient that even using a household socket can provide a considerable range (300+ km) overnight.
-
Fixed Home Chargers (Wallboxes): For the most efficient, safe, and convenient home charging experience, we highly recommend a Lightyear One wallbox . These fixed charging stations offer the fastest AC charging speeds (up to 22 kW, perfectly matched to the One's charging speed), advanced features such as smart charging, load balancing (to prevent overloading your electrical grid), and detailed monitoring via a smartphone app. We offer a wide range of wallboxes perfect for professional home charging station installation , including models with dynamic load balancing for optimal energy distribution and sustainable solar charging .
