Does yours plug in at all? The C 180, C 200, C 220 d, C 300 and C 300 d are petrol and diesel cars with no charging port. Only the \u003cstrong\u003eC 350 e\u003c\/strong\u003e, the \u003cstrong\u003eC 300 e\u003c\/strong\u003e, the \u003cstrong\u003eC 300 de\u003c\/strong\u003e and the \u003cstrong\u003eAMG C 63 S E Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e take a cable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery one of those uses a Type 2 socket, so a Type 2 to Type 2 lead is what you want. The amperage question is settled by the year, and the spread across this range is unusually wide.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 2015 to 2018 C 350 e has a 6.2 kWh battery and accepts 3.7 kW, so a 16A cable covers it completely and a full charge takes about two hours. The 2023 AMG C 63 S E Performance sits in the same bracket for charging purposes, 6.1 kWh and 3.7 kW, and 16A is again all it can use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 2019 to 2021 C 300 e, and the diesel C 300 de estate alongside it, both carry 13.5 kWh and accept 7.4 kW. On those a 32A cable halves the job, four hours down to two, which makes it the obvious buy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 2022 car changed the numbers once more. The current C 300 e holds 25.4 kWh, four times the 2015 pack, and accepts 11 kW. A 16A lead would need close to eight hours to fill it. The 32A single phase cable brings that down to around four hours at home, which is the practical ceiling, because British houses run on a single phase supply and 7.4 kW is as much as one can deliver. The 11 kW rate appears only at a three phase charge point paired with the three phase cable, where a full charge takes roughly two and a half hours.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLine and trim make no difference to any of this. An AMG Line C 300 e charges exactly like a Sport of the same year, so buy by badge and build year, not by specification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur Type 2 to Type 2 cables are IP55 rated, backed by a 2 year manufacturer's warranty and sent out with same-day dispatch on working-day orders placed before 2pm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMercedes C-Class Charging

The C 180, C 200, C 220 d, C 300 and C 300 d have no charging port whatsoever and take no cable. Check the boot lid badge before you order anything from this page.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWhich cable does a C 300 e need?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eA Type 2 to Type 2 cable, 32A. A 2019 to 2021 C 300 e accepts 7.4 kW and fills its 13.5 kWh battery in about two hours. The 2022 car onwards holds 25.4 kWh and accepts 11 kW, so 32A brings a home charge down to roughly four hours rather than nearly eight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eIs 16A enough for a C 350 e?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The 2015 to 2018 C 350 e has a 6.2 kWh battery and a 3.7 kW onboard charger, so a 16A cable already matches the car and a full charge takes about two hours. A 32A lead fits and works perfectly well, but it will not shorten that time by a single minute.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eHow long does a C-Class hybrid take to charge?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat depends on the year. The 6.2 kWh C 350 e takes about two hours on 16A. The 13.5 kWh C 300 e takes about two hours on 32A, or four on 16A. The 25.4 kWh car from 2022 needs roughly four hours at home on 32A, or seven and three quarter hours on 16A.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWhat cable does the AMG C 63 S E take?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eA Type 2 to Type 2 cable, 16A. Despite the performance badge, the 2023 AMG C 63 S E Performance carries only 6.1 kWh and accepts 3.7 kW, so a full charge takes about one and three quarter hours. A 32A cable is not wrong, it simply gives this car nothing extra.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eDo C-Class trim levels change charging?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. AMG Line, Sport, Premium and the rest all charge identically. Only the powertrain badge and the model year matter, which is why a 2015 C 350 e takes 3.7 kW while a 2022 C 300 e takes 11 kW. Order by badge and year, then pick 5m or 10m to suit your parking.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"EV Cable Shop","offers":[{"title":"Type 2 to Type 2 Charging Cable \/ 5M \/ 16amp (3.6kW)","offer_id":57427091358076,"sku":"EVPOW-T2-T2-5M-16AMP-MERC-C-CLASS","price":124.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Type 2 to Type 2 Charging Cable \/ 5M \/ 32amp (7.2kW)","offer_id":57427091390844,"sku":"EVPOW-T2-T2-5M-32AMP-MERC-C-CLASS","price":137.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Type 2 to Type 2 Charging Cable \/ 5M \/ 32amp - 3 Phase (22kW)","offer_id":57427091423612,"sku":"EVPOW-T2-T2-5M-32AMP(3P)-MERC-C-CLASS","price":162.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Type 2 to Type 2 Charging Cable \/ 10M \/ 16amp (3.6kW)","offer_id":57427091456380,"sku":"EVPOW-T2-T2-10M-16AMP-MERC-C-CLASS","price":156.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Type 2 to Type 2 Charging Cable \/ 10M \/ 32amp (7.2kW)","offer_id":57427091489148,"sku":"EVPOW-T2-T2-10M-32AMP-MERC-C-CLASS","price":178.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Type 2 to Type 2 Charging Cable \/ 10M \/ 32amp - 3 Phase (22kW)","offer_id":57427091521916,"sku":"EVPOW-T2-T2-10M-32AMP(3P)-MERC-C-CLASS","price":202.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Type 2 to Type 2 Charging Cable \/ 20M \/ 32amp (7.2kW)","offer_id":57427091554684,"sku":"EVPOW-T2-T2-20M-32AMP-MERC-C-CLASS","price":349.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Type 2 to Type 2 Charging Cable \/ 15M \/ 32amp (7.2kW)","offer_id":57427091587452,"sku":"EVPOW-T2-T2-15M-32AMP-MERC-C-CLASS","price":275.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Type 2 to 3 Pin Charging Cable \/ 5M \/ 6amp – 10amp Adjustable (2.3kW)","offer_id":57427091620220,"sku":"EVPOW-3P-T2-5M-MERC-C-CLASS-V5","price":187.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Type 2 to 3 Pin Charging Cable \/ 10M \/ 6amp – 12amp Adjustable (2.3kW)","offer_id":57427091652988,"sku":"EVPOW-3P-T2-10M-MERC-C-CLASS-V2","price":232.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Type 2 to 3 Pin Charging Cable \/ 15M \/ 6amp – 12amp Adjustable (2.3kW)","offer_id":57427091685756,"sku":"EVPOW-3P-T2-15M-MERC-C-CLASS-V2","price":279.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/3356\/6903\/files\/a250c612bb55a89e35d6b27e3181bd2a.jpg?v=1788990441","url":"https:\/\/wareleads.co.uk\/products\/mercedes-c-class-ev-charging-cables","provider":"Ware Leads","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
