{"product_id":"mercedes-e-class-charging-cable","title":"Mercedes E Class Charging Cable","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Mercedes E300de is the unusual one in this catalogue: a plug-in hybrid built around a diesel engine, sold mostly to people covering serious annual mileage. \u003cstrong\u003eThe W213 E300de of 2019 to 2023 charges at 7.4 kW on AC. The current W214 charges at 11 kW.\u003c\/strong\u003e The diesel is what makes the cable decision interesting, because owners of this car rarely need the battery for a long journey. They need it for the thirty mile leg at each end, which means what actually matters is whether the pack is full again by morning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEvery E-Class plug-in hybrid takes a \u003cstrong\u003eType 2 to Type 2 Charging Cable\u003c\/strong\u003e, whether it is the E300de diesel or the E300e petrol, which use the same charging hardware. Mercedes puts the socket at the rear of the car rather than on a front wing, so check which side yours is on before measuring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGet the \u003ca href=\"\/bg\/collections\/type-2-charging-cables\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e32A single phase\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e cable. Certification aside, the electrical point is simple: the 22 kW lead is designed for a three phase supply, almost no British house has one, and a single phase caps everything at 7.4 kW. On a W213 that is the car's own maximum anyway, so nothing is lost. On a W214 the 11 kW charger could go faster, but only at a workplace or commercial site with three genuine phases, where a full charge falls from 4 hours to 2 hours 30 minutes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 16A cable doubles the time on a W213, from 2 hours to 4 hours. That sounds survivable until you remember this is a car charged every night rather than twice a week. Two extra hours a night, every night, to save thirteen pounds once.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA 13 amp socket is a realistic overnight charge for a battery this small.

Six miles an hour is modest, but on a plug-in hybrid it is the difference between starting a journey on electricity and starting it on diesel. \u003ca href=\"\/bg\/blogs\/blog\/can-you-plug-an-electric-car-into-a-regular-outlet\"\u003eOur guide explains the household socket route in detail\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor the smaller diesel and petrol plug-ins there is the \u003ca href=\"\/bg\/products\/mercedes-c-class-ev-charging-cables\"\u003eMercedes C-Class charging cable\u003c\/a\u003e page, and for the SUV the \u003ca href=\"\/bg\/products\/mercedes-glc-300e-charging-cable\"\u003eMercedes GLC 300e charging cable\u003c\/a\u003e page.

Both the W213 and the W214 fill their batteries fastest on that lead when it is plugged into a home wallbox, and it is the same cable the petrol E300e uses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eDoes the newer E-Class plug-in charge faster?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePer hour, yes. The W214 Mercedes E-Class plug-in has an 11 kW three phase charger against the W213's 7.4 kW single phase unit. At home the difference disappears, because a house supplies 7.4 kW to either car, and the W214 then takes longer overall because its battery is nearly twice the size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eDo I need a 22kW cable for a Mercedes E300de?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot for a W213 Mercedes E300de, which cannot exceed 7.4 kW under any circumstances. On a W214 the 22 kW cable does unlock the full 11 kW, but only at a site with three real phases, and it makes no difference whatsoever on a domestic supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eHow long does a Mercedes E300de take to charge?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbout 2 hours from empty for the W213 Mercedes E300de on a 32A cable at home, or 4 hours for the larger W214 battery. From an ordinary 13 amp household socket those become roughly 6 hours 45 minutes and 12 hours 30 minutes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat cable length works for a Mercedes E-Class?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a 4.95 metre car with the charging socket at the back, so a 5m lead only stretches if the wallbox is close to the rear of the parking space and on the correct side. Where the unit is mounted by the front of a garage, or the car is reversed in, the 10m removes the problem entirely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eIs it worth charging an E300de from a 3-pin socket?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn a W213 Mercedes E300de, yes. The pack is small enough that a household 13 amp socket fills it in about 6 hours 45 minutes, so a night away from home still leaves you with a full electric range in the morning. The W214 battery takes 12 hours 30 minutes the same way, which is a top up rather than a full charge.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"EV Cable Shop","offers":[{"title":"Type 2 to Type 2 Charging Cable \/ 10M \/ 16amp (3.6kW)","offer_id":53207685857627,"sku":"EVPOW-T2-T2-10M-16AMP-MERC-DE-ESTATE","price":156.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Type 2 to Type 2 Charging Cable \/ 10M \/ 32amp (7.2kW)","offer_id":53207685890395,"sku":"EVPOW-T2-T2-10M-32AMP-MERC-DE-ESTATE","price":178.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Type 2 to Type 2 Charging Cable \/ 10M \/ 32amp - 3 Phase (22kW)","offer_id":53207685923163,"sku":"EVPOW-T2-T2-10M-32AMP(3P)-MERC-DE-ESTATE","price":202.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Type 2 to Type 2 Charging Cable \/ 15M \/ 32amp (7.2kW)","offer_id":53207685955931,"sku":"EVPOW-T2-T2-15M-32AMP-MERC-DE-ESTATE","price":275.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Type 2 to Type 2 Charging Cable \/ 20M \/ 32amp (7.2kW)","offer_id":53207685988699,"sku":"EVPOW-T2-T2-20M-32AMP-MERC-DE-ESTATE","price":349.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Type 2 to Type 2 Charging Cable \/ 5M \/ 16amp (3.6kW)","offer_id":53207686021467,"sku":"EVPOW-T2-T2-5M-16AMP-MERC-DE-ESTATE","price":124.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Type 2 to Type 2 Charging Cable \/ 5M \/ 32amp (7.2kW)","offer_id":53207686054235,"sku":"EVPOW-T2-T2-5M-32AMP-MERC-DE-ESTATE","price":137.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Type 2 to Type 2 Charging Cable \/ 5M \/ 32amp - 3 Phase (22kW)","offer_id":53207686087003,"sku":"EVPOW-T2-T2-5M-32AMP(3P)-MERC-DE-ESTATE","price":162.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Type 2 to 3 Pin Charging Cable \/ 10M \/ 6amp – 12amp Adjustable (2.3kW)","offer_id":53207686119771,"sku":"EVPOW-3P-T2-10M-MERC-DE-ESTATE-V2","price":232.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Type 2 to 3 Pin Charging Cable \/ 5M \/ 6amp – 10amp Adjustable (2.3kW)","offer_id":53207686152539,"sku":"EVPOW-3P-T2-5M-MERC-DE-ESTATE-V5","price":187.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Type 2 to 3 Pin Charging Cable \/ 15M \/ 6amp – 12amp Adjustable (2.3kW)","offer_id":53999775187291,"sku":"EVPOW-3P-T2-15M-MERC-DE-ESTATE-V2","price":279.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0952\/3888\/1627\/files\/a59f2982ba0f4a5471072ef9290fdc37.jpg?v=1780280675","url":"https:\/\/trandnova.com\/bg\/products\/mercedes-e-class-charging-cable","provider":"Trand Nova","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
