The Rolec EVO has a £481 lower recorded unit or package price: £356 against £837 for the Rolec Zura.

Using each product's recorded installation basis, the Rolec EVO is £756–£956 installed and the Rolec Zura is £1,237–£1,437 installed. These are planning ranges, not quotes; cable routes and electrical remedial work can change the result.

The Rolec Zura (7.4kW / 22kW) supports three-phase charging at up to 22kW, while the Rolec EVO is single-phase only at 7.4kW. On the standard UK single-phase supply (95% of homes), both charge at roughly the same speed. Three-phase is only relevant if your property has a three-phase electrical supply.

On a standard UK single-phase supply, both will charge a Tesla Model 3 Long Range (75kWh battery) from 20% to 80% in approximately 5–6 hours overnight. Even a Tesla Model Y with its larger battery completes a typical daily top-up well within an overnight window. For the vast majority of UK Tesla owners, single-phase 7kW charging is more than sufficient — you'll wake up to a full battery every morning.

The Rolec EVO offers: Rolec EVO app, Charge scheduling, Solar integration (Eco + Eco+ modes), Dynamic load balancing (CT clamp included), RFID (2 cards included), Wi-Fi 6 + Bluetooth 5.0 + Ethernet, OCPP 1.6J, Energy monitoring, PME/PEN fault detection, Built-in Type A RCD + 6mA DC protection. The Rolec Zura offers: Monta app (3 years included), Charge scheduling and price-based smart charging, 4G LTE + Wi-Fi + Ethernet, Dynamic load balancing (CT clamp included on single-phase), MID Class 1 meter, RFID / NFC reader, OCPP 1.6J, PEN fault detection (TruePEN), Single or dual outlet; upgradeable later.

Breaking these down by category: for connectivity, the Rolec EVO uses Wi-Fi 6 + Bluetooth 5.0 + Ethernet, while the Rolec Zura uses 4G LTE + Wi-Fi + Ethernet. For energy management, the Rolec EVO provides Dynamic load balancing (CT clamp included), Energy monitoring, compared to the Rolec Zura's Dynamic load balancing (CT clamp included on single-phase).

Both the Rolec EVO and Rolec Zura support solar integration, allowing you to charge your Tesla using surplus solar energy rather than drawing from the grid.

The Rolec EVO supports solar diversion through its energy management system. The Rolec Zura supports solar diversion through its energy management system.

The Rolec EVO comes with a 5 years warranty, while the Rolec Zura offers 3 years. The Rolec EVO offers 2 years more coverage.

For weatherproofing, the Rolec EVO is rated IP54 + IK10 (weatherproof + highest impact resistance), while the Rolec Zura is rated IP65 enclosure, IP54 socket; IK10 per datasheet (IK08 on Rolec's page). Any rating of IP54 or above is suitable for a UK outdoor installation.
