Maybe I missed the discussion here:
Which AC cable is the right one for our future Honda e?
I would like to have a coiled cable - winding up a dirty cable (because it was previously lying on the floor) every time does not seem attractive to me.
So what do I need?
Obviously a coiled type2-to-type2 cable.
According to Honda's webpage the Honda e's maximum charge power is 6.6 kW AC ("On Board Charger Capacity") .
Does this information relate only to Type 2, 1-phase cables?
When using a 3-phase cable: is the maximum charge power 22 kW?
Somehow you get different information on the Internet...
To make a long story short – I am interested in the following cables:

Are these examples for the right ones? Or will these cables, due to the lack of the right specifications of the car, only be able to be used in single-phase with max. 6.6 kw anyway?
The right cables
Either of those will work. You only need single phase but 3 phase will work. The car is max 6.6kW on AC even with the 22kW cable.
The car week come with a cable, don't know if it will be coiled. I coiled my Leaf one and used a Velcro tie to keep it that way. When charging I only let it as much as I needed so it didn't touch the floor, just hung off the charger and the car.

Ahh. OK.
But then why does Honda offer a 1-phase and a 3-phase version?
If I follow you, the more expensive 3-phase cables do not offer any advantage with the Honda e, right?
I would take a look at a supplier like:

Much better value and good quality. Compared to an OEM.
But as stated elsewhere I think Honda will be “giving” a type 2 cable and a granny cable in the deal. Or at least something to negotiate when buying.
