The best charger for the Farizon SuperVan depends on your power supply: with three-phase at your home or depot, a 22kW three-phase wall charger delivers the SuperVan’s full 11kW AC rate (~7.5 hours for the 83kWh battery). On single phase, a 7kW (32A) wall charger charges overnight in ~11 hours. For public AC charging you’ll need a 22kW-rated Type 2 to Type 2 cable. Full details below.
Full home charge
10–100% (83kWh) • ~7.5 hrs with 3 phase charging
DC fast charging
CCS2 • up to 140kW (67kWh variant ~30 min)
About the Farizon SuperVan
The Farizon SuperVan (SV) is a purpose-built electric panel van available in four body configurations. All variants share a 170kW / 336Nm front-wheel-drive motor and an 11kW onboard AC charger — making it the only electric van in its class that can charge with 3 phase. Batteries are 67kWh LFP (L1H1 base) or 83kWh LFP (all other configurations), with WLTP range up to 376km.
DC fast charging peaks at 140kW — 20–80% in approximately 36 minutes on a compatible rapid charger (~30 minutes for the 67kWh base).

The SuperVan’s 11kW onboard charger means three-phase power unlocks faster overnight charging — a genuine advantage over single-phase-only EVs.
Three-phase homes & depots
A 22kW 3-phase wall charger delivers the full 11kW to the SuperVan (the onboard charger limits the draw). That cuts charge time by roughly a third versus a 7kW charger, and future-proofs your installation.
Single-phase homes
The right choice for a standard connection — tethered (fixed cable) for grab-and-go convenience, or untethered (socket only) if you share the charger between vehicles or use one Type 2 cable for home and public charging.
Got solar panels
Our smart chargers support solar diversion — soak up your excess solar export and charge the van for free during the day between jobs.
Estimates assume charging from 10% to 100% with typical wall-to-battery efficiency. Times shown are for the 83kWh battery (most configurations); the 67kWh L1H1 base charges approximately 20% faster at equivalent power levels.
| Home charging setup | Connection | Approx. power | Est. time (10% → 100%, 83kWh) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Included / portable charger (8A) | Single phase | ~1.8kW | ~45 hours |
| 10A Type 2 plug-in charger | Single phase | ~2.3kW | ~36 hours |
| 16A charger (caravan / commando style) | Single phase | ~3.7kW | ~23 hours |
| 7kW wall charger (32A) | Single phase | ~7.4kW | ~11 hours |
| 22kW 3-phase wall charger | With 3 phase charging | 11kW (vehicle AC limit) | ~7.5 hours — fastest home option |
The 22kW charger is capped to 11kW by the SuperVan’s onboard charger. The charger’s extra capacity future-proofs your installation for EVs with higher onboard AC limits. Three-phase supply at your property is required.

The SuperVan supports up to 140kW DC. On a compatible rapid charger the 83kWh variant charges from 20–80% in approximately 36 minutes, and the 67kWh L1H1 base in approximately 30 minutes (conditions apply). For long-haul work runs, stopping at around 20–80% gives the best balance of speed and on-road efficiency. DC chargers have cables attached — no need to bring your own.
Many NZ AC public chargers at supermarkets, malls and public car parks are “bring-your-own-cable”.

The SuperVan uses a CCS2 combo port, with the Type 2 portion used for AC charging. We recommend a 22kW Type 2 to Type 2 cable in 5m — the SuperVan will draw its full 11kW from any 3-phase AC post, and the cable is backwards compatible with 7kW single-phase chargers.
The charging port is on the front left of the vehicle, with Type 2 (AC) and CCS2 (DC) behind the same flap.
Power on the job
The SuperVan supports V2L as part of the optional Convenience Package — a 3.3kW 240V outlet in the rear cargo compartment for running tools, powering equipment on-site, or keeping devices charged without a generator. With a 67–83kWh LFP battery on board, the SuperVan has plenty of capacity to share on a long workday.

It depends on whether your home or workplace has three-phase power. With three-phase supply, a 22kW 3-phase wall charger is the best option — it delivers the full 11kW the SuperVan can accept, charging the 83kWh battery from 10–100% in approximately 7.5 hours. On a single-phase connection, a quality 7kW (32A) wall charger is the right pick, taking around 11 hours overnight.
Yes — the SuperVan has a maximum AC charging capacity of 11kW, delivered by a 3-phase 16A supply (3 × 230V × 16A ≈ 11kW). A 22kW 3-phase charger will also deliver 11kW to the van, as the onboard charger caps the draw. This is the fastest AC charging option available for the SuperVan, and the 22kW charger future-proofs your installation for higher-rated EVs.
Using the 83kWh battery as a reference (10–100%): a 22kW 3-phase charger (11kW to the van) takes approximately 7.5 hours; a 7kW single-phase wall charger approximately 11 hours; and a 16A caravan/commando charger approximately 23 hours. The 67kWh L1H1 base charges approximately 20% faster at any given power level.
You can, but it will be very slow. At 8A the SuperVan’s large 83kWh battery takes around 45 hours from 10% to full. A standard power point is fine as a backup or for occasional top-ups, but a dedicated wall charger is strongly recommended for any fleet or regular overnight charging use.
No — you can charge on single phase using a standard 7kW wall charger, which gives around 11 hours overnight for the 83kWh variant. However, if your property already has three-phase supply (common in many industrial and rural NZ properties, and some newer homes), a 22kW 3-phase charger is worthwhile to get the SuperVan’s full 11kW AC rate.
The SuperVan uses a Type 2 AC inlet (part of the CCS2 combo port). We recommend the 22kW-rated Type 2 to Type 2 cable — it works on both single-phase and three-phase AC public chargers, and lets the SuperVan draw the full 11kW wherever 3-phase AC is available. A 5m length is ideal for most public bays.
On a compatible DC rapid charger (up to 140kW), the 83kWh SuperVan charges from 20–80% in approximately 36 minutes. The 67kWh L1H1 base variant is faster, at approximately 30 minutes for the same window. For long-haul work runs, targeting 20–80% sessions maximises charging speed and protects the LFP battery long-term.
Yes, with the optional Convenience Package — a 3.3kW 240V outlet built into the rear cargo compartment for running power tools, small appliances or charging equipment on-site without a generator. It’s not included as standard. If your van doesn’t have the package, we sell an external V2L adapter — see the V2L section above.
