Charging Costs
Cost to Charge Maxus eDeliver 7
Updated March 2026
The Maxus eDeliver 7 has a large 88.5 kWh battery and consumes about 316 Wh/km, which is expected for a full-size delivery van. Its 155 kW DC charging speed is fast for the commercial van segment. Based on what our app users tell us, the eDeliver 7's bigger battery means fewer mid-day stops if you charge fully at the depot. A full charge gives you a WLTP rated range of approximately 366 km. Here is what it costs to charge at home, at public AC chargers, and at DC fast chargers across Europe. Always check your vehicle's manual for exact specifications.
Charging costs vary significantly depending on your electricity tariff, time of day, charging network, subscription, and location. The numbers below are estimates based on average European electricity prices and may not reflect what you actually pay. Always check your network's app for current pricing before charging.

How to Calculate Maxus eDeliver 7 Charging Costs
Calculating your charging cost comes down to two numbers: how much energy your car uses, and how much you pay for that energy. Here is the formula.
Cost per 100 km = (consumption in Wh/km × 100 ÷ 1000) × price per kWh
Cost per full charge = battery capacity in kWh × price per kWh
Example: Maxus eDeliver 7 at home
If your home electricity costs €0.25 per kWh (a rough European average), and the Maxus eDeliver 7 consumes approximately 316 Wh per kilometer:
- Energy per 100 km: 316 × 100 ÷ 1000 = 31.6 kWh
- Cost per 100 km: 31.6 × €0.25 = €7.90
- Full charge (0-100%): ~88.5 kWh × €0.25 = €22.13
Example: Maxus eDeliver 7 at a DC fast charger
DC fast chargers typically cost more, often around €0.45 per kWh or higher. Using the same formula:
- Cost per 100 km: 31.6 × €0.45 = €14.22
- Full charge (0-100%): ~88.5 kWh × €0.45 = €39.83
Keep in mind: These are simplified examples. Your actual cost depends on your specific electricity tariff (which varies by time of day and provider), any charging network subscription you have, session fees, idle fees, and how efficiently you drive. Cold weather, high speeds, and heavy loads all increase consumption. Use these numbers as a starting point, not a guarantee.
Home Charging vs Public Charging
Where you charge makes the biggest difference in what you pay. Here is how the options compare for the Maxus eDeliver 7.
Home charging (AC, typically 3.7 to 22 kW)
The cheapest option. You pay your home electricity rate, which in most European countries is between €0.15 and €0.40 per kWh. The Maxus eDeliver 7 can charge at up to 11 kW on AC, so a full charge from empty takes several hours. Most drivers plug in overnight and wake up to a full battery. If your energy provider offers off-peak rates, charging between midnight and 6 AM can reduce costs further.
Public AC charging (typically 7 to 22 kW)
Public AC chargers at shopping centres, workplaces, or on-street locations usually cost more than home electricity but less than DC fast chargers. Prices range from €0.25 to €0.50 per kWh depending on the network and country. Some are free (employer-provided or included in parking).
DC fast charging (up to 155 kW)
The fastest but most expensive option. The Maxus eDeliver 7 supports DC fast charging at up to approximately 155 kW, which can take the battery from 10% to 80% in roughly 35 minutes under good conditions. DC prices typically range from €0.35 to €0.70+ per kWh. Some networks also charge per-minute fees or session fees on top.
Should You Charge to 80% or 100%?
You may have heard the advice to "only charge to 80%." Whether this applies to you depends on how you charge and what battery your Maxus eDeliver 7 has.
At DC fast chargers
Charging speed slows down significantly above 80% on most electric cars, including the Maxus eDeliver 7. The last 20% can take as long as the first 60%. If you are on a road trip and paying per kWh (or per minute), stopping at 80% saves both time and money. This is a practical recommendation for fast charging, not a strict rule.
At home (AC charging)
At home, charging to 100% occasionally is generally fine. The speed taper above 80% does not matter when you are charging overnight on cheap electricity. Some manufacturers recommend keeping the daily limit around 80-90% to help with long-term battery health. Check your Maxus eDeliver 7's manual for the manufacturer's specific recommendation.
Battery care advice varies by manufacturer, battery chemistry, and model year. The above is general guidance. Always follow the recommendations in your Maxus eDeliver 7's owner manual.

Tips to Reduce Charging Costs
- Charge at the depot overnight whenever possible. The eDeliver 7's 88.5 kWh battery is expensive to fill at public rates, so depot electricity at off-peak prices makes a substantial difference.
- Take advantage of the 155 kW DC charging speed for quick mid-day top-ups. Charge from a low state to 80% for the fastest and most cost-efficient sessions.
- Plan routes around the 280 km range. At 316 Wh/km, the eDeliver 7 burns through energy on longer routes, so avoiding unnecessary kilometers keeps charging costs in check.
- Manage payload carefully. The eDeliver 7 supports up to 1,200 kg, and heavy loads increase consumption. Splitting deliveries across lighter loads can reduce total energy use.
- Avoid highway driving when possible. The eDeliver 7's large frontal area creates significant aerodynamic drag at high speeds, pushing consumption well above 316 Wh/km.
Depot charging overnight is the most cost-effective foundation. The 88.5 kWh battery provides enough range for most delivery days on a single charge. When you do need a mid-day top-up, the 155 kW DC speed means a quick session to 80% gets you substantial range without the high per-kWh cost of charging above 80%.
These tips are general suggestions. Your situation may differ depending on your electricity contract, driving patterns, and local charging infrastructure. Always follow safe charging practices and your vehicle manufacturer's guidelines.
