Why Your Charging Speed May Differ

The Mercedes-Benz GLC Electric supports up to 330 kW DC charging. Pod Point chargers deliver up to 150 kW. The network's maximum power is lower than what the car can accept, so your effective speed tops out at roughly 150 kW.

  • Charging slows down above 80% state of charge on most EVs, including the Mercedes-Benz GLC Electric.
  • Cold weather reduces charging speed. If your Mercedes-Benz GLC Electric supports battery preconditioning, use the built-in navigation to warm the battery before arriving.
  • If multiple cars share the same Pod Point station, power may be split between stalls.
