Fast charging at a public charger (10→80%)

Fast charging on the road (DC = the rapid charger you find at motorway stops, not home charging): indicative time from 10 to 80 percent, calculated from the specs — not measured by us. Actual time varies with charger, temperature and battery level at the start. The 10→80% window is the standard benchmark because the final stretch (80→100%) deliberately charges slower to protect the battery.
Charging situation10→80% (minutes)
At the car's own maximum charging rate (60 kW) ~ 32
At a 150 kW charger ~ 32
At a 50 kW charger ~ 39
How is this calculated? We assume around 70% of the battery sits in the 10→80% window and an average power around 62% of peak (the curve tapers towards the end). At a fixed charger the power is capped to that charger. An estimate, not a manufacturer figure.

Charging at home uses AC power and is slower: a home wallbox typically delivers 7.4 to 11 kW. That is separate from the fast-charge times shown above.

Frequently asked

What does the Mercedes-Benz S-Klasse cost roughly?

Indicative starting price € 124,000 (reference date 2026-01-01). Not an offer.

What is the WLTP range of the Mercedes-Benz S-Klasse?

117 km WLTP (manufacturer figure). Owners typically report less in everyday driving, especially in cold weather. See the reviews below.

How much can the Mercedes-Benz S-Klasse tow?

2100 kg braked (with trailer brakes) — the figure that applies when your trailer (such as a caravan) has its own brakes. Manufacturer figure; the exact, binding limit for a specific car is on its registration document.

How long does fast-charging the Mercedes-Benz S-Klasse take (10→80%)?

Roughly 32 minutes on a 60 kW charger (10→80%, factory calculation, indicative). Actual time depends on battery temperature and the charging curve — the car's charging speed drops as the battery fills.

How big is the battery in the Mercedes-Benz S-Klasse?

28.6 kWh usable capacity (manufacturer figure). Check the warranty terms of the specific car for capacity retention.

How much boot space does the Mercedes-Benz S-Klasse have?

550 litres (manufacturer figure). See the spec sheet for the full dimensions.
