Description
The Mercedes-Benz EQC is a fully electric luxury SUV, combining refined comfort with zero-emission performance. With a range of up to 255 miles (WLTP), the EQC delivers a premium driving experience with the convenience of electric power.
The Mercedes-Benz EQC uses a Type 2 to Type 2 Charging Cable and has a maximum onboard charging capacity of 7.4 kW (AC). This means the 1-Phase, 32A cable delivers the fastest AC charging speed — using a higher-rated 3-Phase cable won't charge any faster than the vehicle can accept, but does future-proof you if you upgrade to a vehicle with a faster onboard charger. The EQC also supports DC rapid charging at up to 110 kW, allowing you to charge from 10 to 80% in around 40 minutes at a compatible rapid charger.
