Mercedes-Benz EQB charging speed
The Mercedes-Benz EQB has a 11 kW three-phase onboard charger. That number — not the charger on your wall — is what decides how fast it charges at home.
Three-phase helps a little
This car draws 7.4 kW single-phase and 11 kW on three-phase — a gain of about 3.6 kW. Real, but modest. If you already have three-phase, use it. If you don't, the upgrade is hard to justify on charging speed alone.
The short answer
On the standard Australian home charger — 32 A single-phase — The Mercedes-Benz EQB draws 7.4 kW, adding roughly 35 km of range per hour. Over an eight-hour overnight window that is about 279 km — far more than most Australians drive in a day.
What every charger actually delivers
Every figure below is computed live from this car's onboard charger rating, not copied from a brochure. "Wasted" is capacity you would pay for and never use.
| Charger | Supply | This car draws | Range per hour | 20–80% | Wasted |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 A power point | Single-phase | 1.8 kW | 8 km | 1 day 3 h | — |
| 15 A power point | Single-phase | 2.8 kW | 13 km | 17 h 2 min | — |
| 32 A single-phase charger | Single-phase | 7.4 kW | 35 km | 6 h 23 min | — |
| 16 A three-phase charger | Three-phase | 11 kW | 52 km | 4 h 16 min | — |
| 32 A three-phase charger | Three-phase | 11 kW | 52 km | 4 h 16 min | 11 |
