Tips to Reduce Charging Costs
- Charge at the depot overnight whenever possible. The eSprinter's 113 kWh battery is expensive to fill on public fast chargers, but depot electricity at off-peak rates makes a massive difference at this battery size.
- Use preconditioning before DC fast charging sessions. The eSprinter supports up to 115 kW DC, and a warm battery reaches peak speed faster, saving time and per-minute charging costs.
- Stop DC charging at 80%. With 113 kWh, even 80% gives you roughly 264 km of range, which is enough for most delivery days without paying the premium for slow charging above 80%.
- If your eSprinter has the optional heat pump, use climate control judiciously. At 342 Wh/km baseline consumption, adding heavy cabin heating without a heat pump can push costs up noticeably.
- Optimize payload and route planning together. The eSprinter carries up to 1,200 kg, but heavier loads increase that already high consumption figure. Splitting heavy loads across trips can reduce total energy used.
Depot charging overnight is essential for keeping eSprinter costs manageable. The 113 kWh battery is one of the largest in any van, and the difference between depot rates and public fast charging prices is significant at this scale. Reserve DC fast charging for days when the route exceeds what a single depot charge can cover.
