Mercedes-Benz Wall Box Charger: Home Charging

‘

You love the look of the 2022 EQS, but can you charge a Mercedes-Benz EV at home? Yes-and with a Mercedes-Benz wall box charger, you can go from 10% to 80% in as little as 31 minutes. If you’re ready to change your daily drives and put range anxiety in your rearview mirror forever, the new EQS is a phenomenal choice. Whether you’re still weighing your options or you’re ready to order a Mercedes-Benz wall box charger today, we’re here to help you take the next steps with confidence!

Mercedes-Benz Wall Box Charger: Charge Times

Although the last 20% of your battery’s capacity can take significantly longer to refill, it’s only really necessary to top off your battery when you’re making a long-distance drive or trying to save time on a road trip.

Keeping your battery in between 20% and 80% is the best way to preserve its health and capacity over the long term, and with a Mercedes-Benz wall box charger, you can always get back on the road in a matter of minutes:

• 10% to 80%: 31 minutes
• 20% to 80%: 25 minutes
• 40% to 80%: 18 minutes
• 60% to 80%: 10 minutes

Keep in mind that these EV charging times reflect the use of DC power. The use of AC power will take significantly longer-up to 11.25 hours to go from 10% to 100%. In fact, this is precisely why it makes sense for every EV owner to order a wall box from their vehicle’s manufacturer!

If you’re refueling on the roads near Pasadena or Alhambra, you should know that it’s easy to get comfortable in the EQS cabin while you wait for your vehicle to recharge.
