V2L and C2L adaptersFrequently asked questions
- How long does the Mercedes-Benz EQC take to charge at home?
- From 20% to 80%: with an 11 kW charger EQC 400 4MATIC (80 kWh) 4 h 51 min; with a single-phase 7.4 kW charger EQC 400 4MATIC (80 kWh) 7 h 12 min; with a 3.7 kW (16 A single-phase) portable charger EQC 400 4MATIC (80 kWh) 14 h 25 min. Times depend on the car's onboard AC charger and the battery's state of charge.
- Which charger is right for the Mercedes-Benz EQC?
- Because the car's onboard AC charger takes 11 kW as standard, a three-phase 11 kW wallbox at home gives the fastest charging the car can accept. On a single-phase supply, a 7.4 kW wallbox is usually enough for everyday use.
- Does a 22 kW charger charge the Mercedes-Benz EQC faster?
- No. The Mercedes-Benz EQC takes at most 11 kW AC; a 22 kW charger gives this car the same power. A 22 kW charger only makes sense for a future car that supports 22 kW or for shared use.
- How much does it cost to charge the Mercedes-Benz EQC at home?
- At the Ofgem price cap (£0.26/kWh, 10.2026) 100 km costs about £6.14. At public AC chargers you pay about £12.60 on average, at DC rapid chargers about £17.58. Tariffs with cheaper night rates lower the cost further.
- Does the Mercedes-Benz EQC support V2L?
- According to EV Database, the Mercedes-Benz EQC does not support V2L (vehicle-to-load). For camping or site work, C2L adapters that take power from a charging point work independently of the car.
