Mercedes EQE charging cable

The Mercedes EQE is a premium electric saloon positioned between the EQS and the larger SUV models in Mercedes-Benz's electric range. Built for long-distance comfort and refined everyday driving, the EQE combines a large battery with efficient AC charging. The EQE 300, EQE 350, and EQE 350+ all use a 90.6 kWh usable battery and share an 11 kW three-phase onboard charger as standard. A 22 kW upgrade is available as an option across the range. Connected to a three-phase wallbox or public AC charging station, the EQE gains approximately 50 km (31 miles) of range per hour at 11 kW, with a full charge taking around nine and a half hours. The CCS Type 2 inlet sits on the right rear flank, where the fuel filler would be on a conventional saloon.

The right charging cable for the Mercedes EQE

An 11 kW Voldt® Type 2 charging cable is the correct match for every EQE variant with the standard onboard charger, delivering the car's full AC rate at any compatible three-phase wallbox. For cars fitted with the optional 22 kW charger, a 22 kW cable is the right choice: an 11 kW cable would cap a 22 kW session at 11 kW.

On a single-phase home wallbox (7.4 kW), an 11 kW three-phase cable bottlenecks the session to 3.7 kW, as its conductors are rated at 16A per phase rather than the 32A a single-phase wallbox delivers on one line. At 3.7 kW, the 90.6 kWh battery takes around 27 to 28 hours for a full charge. A 22 kW cable, whose conductors are rated at 32A per phase, carries the full single-phase load and delivers 7.4 kW, reducing that to approximately 14 hours. For owners with a single-phase home installation, a 22 kW cable is the practical choice regardless of which onboard charger is fitted.

The right-rear port mirrors the position of a conventional fuel filler, so reversing into a bay puts the port closest to the post. For most home driveways a 6-metre cable is comfortable. An 8-metre cable is the dependable everyday choice for mixed home and public charging. A 10-metre cable provides additional flexibility at public charging stations where parking layouts can vary. A 15-metre cable handles hotel parking areas, extended driveways, and wider charging bays without compromise.

Reliable charging during travel

The Voldt® portable CEE charging cable connects to industrial CEE sockets and is available up to 22 kW via three-phase CEE. On a 16A three-phase CEE socket (11 kW), the 90.6 kWh battery charges fully in around nine and a half hours. On a 32A three-phase CEE socket, standard 11 kW-equipped cars see the same result; cars with the optional 22 kW charger complete a full charge in approximately four and three-quarter hours.

Red three-phase CEE sockets are found at industrial sites, workshops, and some commercial marinas. Standard European campsite hookup points use blue single-phase 16A CEE sockets, which cap output at 3.7 kW. At that rate, a full charge from near-empty takes around 27 to 28 hours. A campsite blue socket is adequate for a partial top-up during a multi-night stay, but not a practical source for a full charge on a single overnight stop. On a standard domestic socket at 2.3 kW, a full charge takes around 44 to 45 hours: relevant only as an emergency fallback over multiple days, not a regular charging method for a battery of this size.
