Charging and range.
High suitability for everyday use thanks to fast, diverse charging options.
Charging options
Simply charge. Everywhere.
Charging batteries has never been so easy: whether at home with the Mercedes-Benz Wallbox or out and about at numerous charging stations such as at shopping centres or service stations.

Charging at home
With the Mercedes-Benz Wallbox Home your home becomes a charging station: thanks to the powerful AC charging system the EQA charges with up to 11 kW (3-phase) here – and thus many times faster than at a conventional household socket. With the intelligent Wallbox from innogy (eBox smart or professional) you also have the opportunity to simply control or export your charge data via the corresponding app.

Designed for you and our EQ models.
The Remote and Navigation Services make electric driving convenient and efficient. You always have charging stations in the vicinity or along a route and the current range in view. Navigation with Electric Intelligence automatically schedules in charging stops along the route for you. With the Mercedes me App you also have access to charging settings and pre-entry climate control outside the vehicle.

EQ&A
Your most important questions on electric driving.
- Real electric range
Why is the real electric range often less than specified?
The electric range varies depending on individual driving behaviour, the route profile and environmental factors. You can travel on electric power further if you use ECO Assist to drive with foresight and take advantage of the recuperation and/or gliding function. Auxiliary equipment such as seat heating or the climate control system also has an impact on range.
- AC and DC charging technology
What is the difference between AC and DC charging technology?
Basically, the batteries of electrified vehicles can only be charged with direct current (DC). However, all household sockets, the Mercedes-Benz Wallbox, the innogy eBox professional, the innogy eBox smart and most public charging stations supply alternating current (AC), as do "high-voltage sockets". To make charging possible, vehicles are equipped with an on-board charger – an AC/DC rectifier. It converts the alternating current into the required direct current. It facilitates charging capacities of 2.3 kW to 11 kW – depending on the AC source.
- Environmental friendliness
How environmentally friendly are electric cars really?
How environmentally friendly the vehicle is used depends greatly on your driving and charging behaviour. Among other things, the electricity you charge the vehicle with also plays a significant role, i.e.: is it actually being charged with "green" electricity or an energy mix? Many public charging stations are supplied with green electricity, and a green electricity contract for domestic users is often only a few clicks away.
