Overview


The Mercedes-Benz eVito is a full battery electric van with a significant load capacity, but a more modest battery capacity (at least by modern day standards), offering range of significantly less than 100 miles on a single charge. This means the van is best suited to specific applications, rather than heavy mileage usage, but there are plenty such uses. Being a Mercedes-Benz, it's a well-built and well-appointed van and, being electric, spritely to drive too.

Charging Details


Charging time for a Mercedes-Benz eVito

The table below shows the estimated time to charge your eVito from empty to full. For rapid charging, we show the time to charge from 20% - 80%, as charging tends to slow outside this range to protect the battery.

Charging method Typically found at Charging time* Range/hour**
Empty to full
3-pin plug Home 18 h 5 m/h
3.6kW Home / Work 12 h 8 m/h
7kW Home / Work / Public Locations 6 h 15 m/h
22kW Work / Public Locations 4 h 23 m/h
20%-80%
50kW Public Locations N/A N/A
150kW Public Locations N/A N/A


* Based on Pod Point estimates, charging time can differ based on the ambient temperature, the state of the battery (e.g. empty or half full) and variation in charging rate. Max charging rate may also be limited by the vehicle.
** Range per hour is the number of miles you can expect to get from an hour of charging at the relevant rate.

Connector type and charging rates

You can charge your Mercedes-Benz eVito with a Type 2 connector at home, work or at a public charging point.

CO2 emissions from UK grid electricity usage (Pod Point calculated)* 56 gCO2/km


* This metric estimates the environmental impact of driving your electric vehicle based on how the electricity that powers your car is generated. We take the average carbon intensity across the UK grid measured throughout 2021 to calculate the expected grams of CO2 emitted per 1 km driven. The actual number will vary by region, when you charge (e.g. carbon intensity is usually lower overnight period) and whether your electricity comes from more renewable sources than the average.
