At EV-Cables.co.uk — the UK EV-charging-cable site with the most colour choice, shipping globally — we’ve learned something simple: colour matters. Your cable isn’t just a tool; it’s an accessory that should look at home with your car (or your wrap) and be easy to spot when you’re packing up after a charge.
In 2025 we broadened the palette with two customer-requested additions:
-
Electric Blue — that vibrant, modern “EV blue”
-
Mid-tone Grey — a sleek, understated neutral that matches countless paint shades
Now we’re planning our 2026 drop — and we want you to choose what lands next.
Why cable colour matters
-
Style: match or contrast with your vehicle’s paint/wrap.
-
Safety/Visibility: brighter colours are easier to see in low light.
-
Practicality: some colours hide scuffs better than others.
-
Brand vibe: your EV setup, your aesthetic.
What most drivers are choosing (paint & wraps)
Car paints continue to lean grey/black/white, with blue on the rise. Wrap trends skew toward stealth greys, heritage greens, bold reds/oranges, and fun teals/purples. Translating that into cable jackets gives you tasteful matches or eye-catching contrasts.
You already have: Black, High-Vis Yellow, Cool Grey, and Electric Blue. Below are new candidates inspired by what’s on the road and on the wrap racks.
