Mercedes S 580 e Plug in hybrid

More commonly called the 580e, the plug-in hybrid S-Class uses the same turbocharged 3.0-liter gas engine from the base S500 model. The addition of a large 28-kilowatt-hour battery pack ( 50% larger than most batteries used for plug-in hybrids) for a combined total output of 510 horsepower (380 kilowatts). The Mercedes S 580 e plug-in hybrid also has a large battery acceptance rate (how fast the battery can accept power), which makes it suitable for level 2 240 volt chargers. These will charge larger batteries more quickly. We receive requests for replacement or new Mercedes S580 EV Chargers. Our EV Chargers are light, portable and can be moved if you rent or plan to move house, as well as be used outside of the home where plugs are available e.g RV parks.

Recommendation: If you need fast charges during the day to maximize your all electric capability, do not live close to commercial charging stations, or want to charge overnight during off peak or super off peak charging hours (when electricity is cheaper, it is better to do a fast charge), then we recommend our Mercedes S 580 Plug in hybrid NEMA 14-50 40 amp 9.6 kWh or NEMA 14-30 24 amp 5.8 kWh EV charger (you may have this EV plug type already at home). Both provide the fastest plug in charge times. Approximate charge time from empty is around 3 hours (1.5 hours from a 50% battery) with a NEMA 14-50 40 amp 9.6kWh charger. All our EV chargers are SAE J1772 standard so compatible with your Volvo XC40 Recharge
