Electric Vehicles FAQs
01
How much does it cost to charge an electric vehicle?
The cost for charging a Mercedes-Benz EV depends on its battery capacity and the electricity rates in your area. In contrast to climbing gas prices today, the expenses related to EV charging are often much less than those associated with refueling traditional gas cars. Stop by our Salem Mercedes-Benz dealership to learn more!
02
What is the average electric vehicle range?
Most new electric vehicles can easily travel between 200 and 300 miles on a fully charged battery. Some models, such as the new electric Mercedes-Benz EQS Sedan, exceed that average — boasting an impressive maximum range of up to 350 miles. Note that actual range can fluctuate based on driving style and weather conditions.
03
How long does it take to charge an EV at home?
If you’re charging your electric vehicle at home, the charging length will depend on your charger type and the EV battery capacity. With a 240-volt Level 2 charging station, a majority of EVs can get fully charged overnight. You can also opt for a DC fast-charging Level 3 charger in Stayton for a significant boost in range in under an hour.
