Mercedes B250E charging cable

Mercedes B250E Connector type:

The Mercedes B250E uses a Type 2 connector for charging at charging poles/wallboxes and power sockets. The charging cables we show above all have the correct Type 2 for your Mercedes B250E.

Mercedes B250E Mobile versus fixed charging:

The Mercedes B250E is best charged through a charging station/wallbox or through a wall socket. This can be a household socket or a CEE power outlet. The advantage of charging via a socket versus a charging station/wallbox is that it has lower purchase costs. The advantage of charging via a charging station/wallbox is that Many modern charging stations offer 'smart' features such as load balancing, remote monitoring, and integration with energy management systems. This can be useful for both households and businesses.

Mercedes B250E Charging speed:

The Mercedes B250E can handle up to 16A-3 phase charging. This makes the maximum charging capacity 11kW. If your power source is only 1 phase, like a household socket, this is not a problem, it's just that the charging speed is lower as a result.

Discover the range and charging capabilities of the Mercedes B250E

The Mercedes B250E, a car with a battery capacity of 15.6kWh, this guarantees an electric range of between 67km according to the WLPT standard. WLTP, which stands for "Worldwide Harmonised Light Vehicles Test Procedure", is an international standardised test procedure to measure the fuel consumption and emissions of light vehicles.

The Mercedes B250E is equipped with a 3 phase 16A charging system. This allows it to charge at a speed of 13km/h. That translates into a full charge time of 4:00hours, from 0% to 100%. This is due to its maximum charging capacity of 11kW and maximum amperage of 16A.

Connecting your Mercedes B250E to a charging station or outlet

Important for Mercedes B250E owners is the connector type. The car uses a type 2 connector. This type is ideal for charging at various charging stations, wallboxes and even standard sockets. Choosing a charging point may vary depending on your needs. A standard household socket or a CEE socket may be convenient because of its lower purchase cost. In contrast, many modern charging stations offer 'smart' features such as load balancing, remote monitoring and integration with energy management systems. These features can be beneficial for both households and businesses.For those considering buying a charging cable for the Mercedes B250E, or simply looking for more information on the best way to charge this electric car, it is essential to know the compatibility and specifications well. And with the above details, you are already well on your way. When looking for the perfect charging cable for your Mercedes B250E in our webshop, you can rely on these details to make the right choice.

Mercedes B250E charging cable

The Mercedes-Benz B 250 e is the plug-in hybrid version of the W247 B-Class, pairing a 1.33-litre turbocharged petrol engine with an electric motor for a combined 218 PS and 450 Nm, driving the front wheels through an eight-speed dual-clutch gearbox. The 15.6 kWh lithium-ion battery sits beneath the rear seats, which leaves the boot close to standard, and the Type 2 socket is set into the right rear wing. Usable capacity varies by build: roughly 10.6 kWh on 2020 to 2022 cars, 11.6 kWh on facelift cars from 2023, and 13.0 kWh from September 2024 production onwards. One point of confusion worth clearing up first: the earlier B-Class Electric Drive (W242, 2014 to 2017) also wore the B 250 e badge. That car is fully electric, carries a 28 kWh usable battery and charges through a socket on the left rear, so the guidance below does not apply to it.

Three onboard chargers, one badge

More than any other detail, the onboard charger decides which cable suits your B 250 e, and Mercedes fitted three different ones over the model's life. Every car left the factory with a 3.7 kW single-phase charger as standard. On pre-facelift cars built between 2020 and 2022, a 7.4 kW single-phase charger was available as a paid option. On facelift cars from 2023 onwards, that option was replaced by an 11 kW three-phase unit. Separately, DC rapid charging through the CCS inlet was also an extra, rated at 24 kW on early cars and 22 kW after the facelift, good for 10 to 80 per cent in about 25 minutes. DC charging uses the charge point's own tethered lead, so it has no bearing on which cable you buy.

If you bought the car new, the original order sheet will confirm the specification. If you bought it used, the simplest check is the rate shown on the car's display at a public post: a 2020 to 2022 car will settle at either 3.7 kW or 7.4 kW, and a 2023-onwards car at a three-phase post will settle at either 3.7 kW or 11 kW. From near-empty, expect roughly three to three and a half hours at 3.7 kW, around one hour 45 minutes at 7.4 kW, and around one hour ten minutes at 11 kW.

Choosing a cable that fits every version

Almost all British homes are supplied on a single phase, and a typical home wallbox delivers 7.4 kW at 32A. That figure matters here, because reaching 7.4 kW on one phase requires a cable rated to carry 32A per conductor. Our 22 kW Type 2 cable is built for exactly that, and it is the recommendation we make across the whole B 250 e range for one reason: it delivers full speed to all three onboard chargers. A 7.4 kW car pulls its full 7.4 kW from a domestic wallbox, a facelift car with the 11 kW upgrade pulls its full 11 kW from a three-phase public post, and a standard 3.7 kW car charges at its maximum with plenty of headroom in reserve.

An 11 kW Type 2 cable remains a sound choice if you know your car has the 11 kW three-phase upgrade and you mainly use three-phase public charging, where it reaches the same 11 kW in a lighter, more manageable cable. The 22 kW cable simply covers more ground, including a future car with a higher-rated charger. On length, 6 metres suits a driveway or garage where the post sits close to the right rear wing. An 8-metre cable is the more relaxed choice for public bays, where the post may sit ahead of the car or across a wider bay. Where you share a driveway, park on-street or deal with awkward car park layouts, 10 and 15-metre cables give you room to work with.

Charging where there is no wallbox

A battery this size refills comfortably from ordinary sockets, which makes portable charging genuinely useful rather than a last resort. Our 22 kW portable charger plugs into a 32A red commando socket, the sort found in workshops, on farms, at commercial marinas and in trade units. It carries the same 32A per conductor as the fixed cable above, so a 7.4 kW car reaches 7.4 kW and completes a charge in about one hour 45 minutes, while a facelift car with the 11 kW upgrade takes around one hour ten. For campsites and caravan sites, the blue 16A commando charger is the one to pack: it charges at 3.7 kW, filling the battery in roughly three to three and a half hours, so an evening's pitch with the car plugged in returns you a full electric range by dinner.

For everything else there is the three-pin portable charger, adjustable from 8A to 13A and drawing up to 2.8 kW within the limits of what the circuit can sustain. That is meaningfully quicker than the 10A brick supplied with many of these cars, and it brings a flat battery back to full in around four to four and a half hours: an overnight plug-in at home, or a long afternoon at a relative's house. A built-in thermal sensor keeps watch on the temperature at the plug and trims the current automatically if the socket runs warm, which matters most on older wiring where you cannot see what is behind the faceplate.
