Mercedes EQE AMG 53 4MATIC EV charger: which one fits best?
The Mercedes-AMG EQE 53 4MATIC+ is a performance saloon with a 90.6 kWh net battery. At home it charges at 11 kW as standard, through a Type 2 connection. That decides which charger suits it best. For this AMG you get the most out of a three-phase charger, one that uses all three live phases of your home supply to deliver the full 11 kW. The EQE comes in several versions. In our overview of all Mercedes EV chargers you pick your model and see its charging details.

Which EV charger suits the Mercedes EQE AMG 53 4MATIC?
With an 11 kW onboard charger as standard, this AMG charges fully at home on a three-phase charger. Three-phase means your home supply carries three live phases instead of one. Do you have the optional 22 kW onboard charger? Then a 22 kW charger roughly halves the charging time. For most drivers 11 kW is ample: plug in at night and you are full by morning.
Look at the MID meter as well. That is a certified kWh meter built into the charger. Because the meter sits in the charger, it records your charging separately from the rest of your household use. The certification is what makes that reading count as an official record. So you know exactly what charging at home costs you. We stock chargers with a MID meter at both 11 kW and 22 kW.
Our 11 kW EV chargers all deliver the full power this AMG takes as standard. Have the optional onboard charger? Then look at the 22 kW EV chargers instead. A charger fixed to the wall is the usual setup for charging at home, and that is what our home EV chargers bring together. Have a qualified electrician make the connection. That is safer and it matters for your insurance.
How long does the Mercedes EQE AMG 53 4MATIC take to charge?
On an 11 kW charger a full charge takes around 8 hours, which is 90.6 kWh divided by 11 kW. Plug the car in during the evening and it is full in the morning. With the optional 22 kW onboard charger and a 22 kW charger, a full charge takes about 4 to 5 hours.
In practice you rarely charge from completely empty to completely full. Day-to-day charging therefore usually takes a good deal less.

Frequently asked questions
Does the Mercedes EQE AMG 53 4MATIC need a three-phase connection?
For the full 11 kW at home, yes: you need a three-phase connection of 3x16 A. On a single-phase connection the fuse decides how far the car gets. At 16 A that is 3.7 kW, at 32 A it is 7.4 kW. Charging then takes considerably longer, so it pays to check what your home supply can deliver.
Why does a MID meter matter with this charger?
A MID meter is a certified kWh meter that records your charging accurately. Because it sits inside the charger, it keeps your charging separate from the rest of your electricity use. The certification makes that reading count as an official record. So you know exactly what charging at home costs you, apart from the rest of your electricity bill.
Which charging plug does the Mercedes EQE AMG 53 4MATIC use?
The EQE AMG 53 4MATIC charges through a Type 2 plug, the European standard for AC (alternating current) charging. At home you charge through the charger's fixed connection. To charge at a public point without a fixed cable, you need a matching Type 2 charging cable.
