XC60 Charging with 3 pin plug

db1001 · May 20th, 2020, 01:16

I am thinking of ordering an XC60 Recharge (MY21). Does anyone know if it is possible to set the charging current when charging from the 3 pin plug.

My 2015 V60 Twin Engine has the ability to charge at 6, 8 or 10 amps - does the XC60 have the same options?

My car which is MY20 came with a charging cable that doesn't offer the possibility of changing the charging speed although obviously wouldn't know if they have changed this for MY21 or not. It looks like the cable may have changed as it is advertised as a 7m cable on the pricelist whereas I think all the previous cables have been 4.5m so you might want to check with the dealer if this is important.
As far as I can work out the cable I have draws 10 amps which generally charges the battery in 4 hours 10 minutes from empty.
