Learn More About Mercedes-Benz Fast Charge

Charging speeds vary based on charger type, vehicle battery, and current battery level. At DC fast-charging stations, Mercedes-Benz models can change rapidly. For example, the EQS Sedan can charge from 10% to 80% in around 31 minutes using a 200 kW charger. The EQE and EQB offer similar fast charging times when using high-power networks.  

If you're using a Level 2 home charger, expect a full charge in 8–12 hours, depending on your model. The EQB 300 and EQB 350 charge faster than earlier EVs, thanks to their onboard 11 kW chargers. The EQE SUV features a high-voltage battery that charges more quickly and efficiently than standard EV batteries.  

Mercedes-Benz electric vehicles support Plug & Charge at participating stations, simplifying the charging experience. Just plug in—authentication and payment are automatic. This technology is available for the EQS, EQE, and select 2025 models.  

Benefits of Fast Charging Your Mercedes-Benz EV  

Fast charging isn’t just about saving time; it’s about keeping your day on schedule. Rapid charging allows you to add hundreds of miles to your range in less than an hour. This means shorter breaks during road trips and less waiting around in daily life.

You’ll also benefit from built-in navigation showing real-time charging station availability. EQ models can plan your route with charging stops, optimizing efficiency and convenience. Newer Mercedes-Benz electric vehicles, such as the 2025 EQS SUV, offer even better range and faster charging compatibility than previous years.  

Convenient apps, like Mercedes Me Charge, give you access to over 60,000 charging points nationwide. Whether at home, work, or on the road, charging your Mercedes-Benz EV is easy and accessible.
