Charging adapters for UX 300e

[Harry Wright]

I have taken delivery of a new UX300e and would love to drive down to southern Italy. I've done the trip a couple of times in diesel VWs. My concern is adequate charging points in France and Italy. I thought about getting and adapter to cover for Chademo outages and absence of. Has anybody got any experience of these adapters and driving through France and Italy?

Thanks Harry

An acquaintance recently drove his EV through France to Switzerland and commented there were many charging stations throughout the journey all were working and plenty of spaces available. These were high speed chargers. Coming back to the UK was like driving back 5yrs in time! The Continent appears to be much better organised/supplied with EV charging facilities

Surely that should be a smiling face? One is far better served with chargers on the Continent than we are here!

It's Clarks quote that got me. Have you ever wondered what happens to those electron you pay so dearly for, I wonder if they can be recycled  when the power company gets them back!!!!

Hi @Harry Wright
I recently did a trip to in the Normandy area in France about 500km in my UX 300e and I didn’t have any issues. The charging stations in France are way better than in UK and also much faster. I am not too sure how the charging facilities are in Italy. 
I would advise downloading an EV charging map app on the phone. As it tells you which areas have charging and what connectors are available so you can plan the journey. 
Happy cruising.
