As CHAdeMO was created by Nissan, Mitsubishi, Toyota, Fuki and Tokyo Electric Power Company, Japanese carmakers were some of the biggest adopters of CHAdeMO technology. In the UK, the cars that can be rapid charged with a CHAdeMO connector include the Nissan Leaf, Lexus UX 300e, Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV, now-discontinued Toyota Prius Plug-In, Tesla Model S (when fitted with an adapter), Nissan e-NV200, Kia Soul EV Mk1, Citroen Berlingo Electric Mk1 and the platform-sharing Mitsubishi i-MiEV, Peugeot iOn and Citroen C-Zero. A CHAdeMO charging port is also available as an optional extra on the LEVC London Taxi.

If you’ve got a slightly older electric car like a Nissan Leaf, there are still charging points out there with CHAdeMO connectors. You’ll find CHAdeMO connectors on a lot of DC rapid chargers capable of 50kW charging speeds or faster like those operated by InstaVolt, Gridserve and Osprey, among others.
CHAdeMO EV sockets are designed with safety insulation on their pinheads to prevent accidental direct contact with human hands. This insulation is meant to ensure the highest level of safety when handling the sockets, protecting the user from potential electric shock.
This advanced charging system is also built to last, with a robust construction that ensures reliability and longevity. The CHAdeMO socket is designed to outlast its competitors, making it an excellent long-term investment for EV owners. Its multi-available current rating and easy installation make it a great choice for both residential and commercial applications.
The socket is designed to be used with CHAdeMO charging connectors, which are becoming increasingly commonplace across the world. This makes it an ideal choice for those who want to charge their electric vehicles without having to worry about compatibility issues.
