Performance you want, flexibility you need.
Mercedes-Benz Plug-In Hybrid Vehicles (PHEVs) offer the flexibility of electric range for daily trips and traditional gas power for longer journeys.
Explore the benefits of this progressive technology.
Progressive power for a smaller footprint
Plug-in hybrid technology is designed to save on fuel consumption. When fully charged, Mercedes-Benz PHEVs offer some of the most remarkable electric ranges in the industry — up to 54 miles of gas-free driving.*
*Electric range varies by model.
An intuitive charging experience
MB.CHARGE Public gives you easy access to all major public charging networks across the country — including Mercedes-Benz High-Power Charging for an elevated charging experience.
Convenience on every journey
Electric driving is ideal for cruising around town, while the traditional gas engine can take on longer drives when public charging isn’t available. When combined, the two powertrains increase efficiency all around.
How Plug-In Hybrid Vehicles Work
Advanced Powertrain Technology
PHEVs pair a traditional gas engine with an electric motor and large-capacity rechargeable battery. This allows the vehicle to run on pure electric energy, gas or a combination of both — ideal for emission-free drives around town or everyday commutes with the convenience of a gas-engine for longer trips. The vehicle seamlessly switches to gas power as needed, while a portion of the battery capacity will remain in reserve to recharge through regenerative braking.
Different Hybrid Systems
Mercedes-Benz hybrid offerings each provide a luxurious drive and remarkable performance, yet each type of powertrain serves its own purpose.
Plug-In Hybrid
Additional range. Greater convenience. Powered by both a gas engine and an advanced electric motor, Mercedes-Benz PHEVs deliver the same dynamic performance as traditional gas-powered vehicles with the added appeal of emission-free driving around town.
Mild Hybrid
The drive you know — enhanced with electric efficiency. Mild-hybrid vehicles pair a gas-powered engine with a small electric motor that recharges without the need to plug in, marrying luxury and effortlessness in every mile.
Performance Plug-In Hybrid
Pure exhilaration, electrified with Formula 1® hybrid technology. Performance plug-ins feature a powerful electric motor that together with a gas engine churns out a substantial boost to acceleration and overall performance.
Simplified charging
Equipped with a high-capacity battery, charging your Plug-In Hybrid Mercedes-Benz is as easy as it is convenient. Recharge at home using a Level 2 Mercedes-Benz Wallbox or access thousands of public charging stations across the country through MB.CHARGE Public on the Mercedes-Benz app.
Mercedes-Benz High-Power Charging
Delivering convenient, fast and reliable charging for all EV owners. Mercedes-Benz drivers receive 2 years of complimentary charging and other benefits, including charger reservations and payments through the MB.CHARGE Public for seamless charging.

What is a Mercedes-Benz PHEV?
High-tech specs. High-caliber craftsmanship. The dual powertrain of Mercedes-Benz Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicles offer flexibility, freedom and exquisite luxury.
What maintenance is required for a Plug-In Hybrid?
Most batteries can last between 100,000 – 200,000 miles when properly cared for. If the battery generally maintains between 20% and 80% state of charge and is not subjected to extremely hot temperatures, upkeep can be minimal.
Do Plug-In Hybrids Self-Charge?
PHEVs can partially recharge themselves through regenerative braking, which captures energy typically lost during deceleration. However, to fully recharge the battery, an external power source is required. For convenient home charging, use the included Mercedes-Benz Power Charger or Mercedes-Benz Wallbox, or navigate to one of 120,000+ public charging stations in our integrated charging network.
