Charging
General information
9 Warning
Persons with a pacemaker should
consult a doctor for possible
precautions.
Charging the vehicle's high voltage
battery depends upon several factors:
● high voltage battery of the vehicle
● internal onboard charger (OBC)
● charging cable
● external charging device
The charging cable connects the
vehicle with an external charging
device providing electric power. This
may be a domestic electrical outlet, a
Green'Up socket, a wall box or a
public charging station.
The high voltage battery is charged
with direct current (DC) only. When
charging the vehicle with alternating
current (AC), AC has to be converted
into DC. This is done by the vehicle's
onboard charger. The onboard
charger is available with 7.4 kW
(single-phase) and 11 kW (3-phase).
If the vehicle is charged at a public DC
charging station, no DC conversion is
required. The high voltage battery
can be directly charged with DC
provided by the DC charging station.
The speed of charging the vehicle's
high voltage battery depends upon
the weakest element of the charging
chain. To achieve the maximum
charging speed, charging cable and
charging device have to be attuned to
each other.
Note
Make sure that the charging cable
used fits to the vehicle's onboard
charger.
Charging types 3 245.
Charging cable 3 253.
Electric power consumption and
range
Passenger car: the electric power
consumption (combined) is within a
range of 17.5 to 19.4 kWh/100 km.
Commercial car: the electric power
consumption (combined) is within a
range of 18.0 to 19.2 kWh/100 km.
The range is up to 320 km for
passenger car and 278 km for
commercial car.
For the values specific to your
vehicle, refer to the Certificate of
Conformity provided with your vehicle
or other national registration
documents.
The determination of electric power
consumption is regulated by directive
R (EC) No. 715/2007 and No.
2017/1151 (in the latest applicable
version).
Charging types
There are different types of charging
the vehicle's high voltage battery.
