Cost to Charge Mercedes-Benz EQB in Belgium
Updated March 2026
The Mercedes-Benz EQB has a 70.5 kWh battery and uses about 17 kWh per 100 km. For a seven-seat compact SUV, that is solid efficiency. Drivers using our app find that the EQB's 415 km range covers most weekly driving without needing public fast chargers. Its 102 kW DC charging speed is adequate for the occasional road trip top-up. In Belgium, average home electricity costs around €0.36/kWh and DC fast charging averages €0.60/kWh. These are estimates. 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 prices in Belgium and may not reflect what you actually pay. Always check your network's app for current pricing.

Tips to Reduce Charging Costs
- Schedule home charging overnight using the Mercedes me app. The EQB's 70.5 kWh battery fills completely in about 7 hours on an 11 kW home charger, fitting perfectly into off-peak windows.
- The EQB maxes out at 102 kW DC charging. Choosing chargers in that range rather than paying for ultra-fast stations you cannot fully use keeps costs lower.
- Set your charge limit to 80% for everyday driving. The last 20% charges much slower on DC, so you spend more time and money per kWh gained.
- Use preconditioning while the EQB is still plugged in. Heating or cooling the cabin (especially the larger space with all seats) from grid power saves battery for driving.
- The EQB's consumption increases with extra passengers and cargo. On heavier trips, plan a brief charging stop rather than pushing the battery to empty and needing an expensive top-up at whatever charger is closest.
Home charging delivers the best per-kilometer cost for the EQB. Its 70.5 kWh battery and moderate consumption mean most drivers can handle their commute on two or three home charges per week. Save DC fast charging for longer journeys, and unplug at 80% to keep sessions short and affordable.
