Max AC charging rate
9.6 kW
Full charge (wall energy)
79 to 80 kWh
EPA range
205 to 251 mi
Cost per full charge
about $14.49 to $14.73

The Mercedes-Benz EQB accepts up to 9.6 kW from a home charger. J1772 charge port, the standard port. J1772 chargers plug in directly; NACS chargers work with an adapter. 139 of the 180 chargers that plug in directly reach that rate, and every one of them charges this vehicle at exactly the same speed: a more powerful charger will not charge this car faster. The numbers that still separate them are verified price, cable length, and warranty.

A full charge costs the same on any Level 2 charger: energy is energy. The figure above uses the national average residential rate (EIA, June 2026); the charging cost calculator has your state's number.

The top ten by the numbers

Selection rule, in full: only chargers with a verified price appear; ranked by charge rate on this car, then by that price; at most two per brand; ten rows at most. Nothing here is an editorial pick.

Vehicle figures come from EPA fuel-economy data (2024-2025); the maximum AC rate is verified against the manufacturer's own documentation. Charger specifications follow the same methodology as every page on this site.

What a full charge costs

Electricity is the whole running cost, and it is the number that varies most by where you live. A full 79 to 80 kWh at the Mercedes-Benz EQB, priced three ways:

RateCents per kWhFull charge
Nevada, the cheapest state13.11$10.36 to $10.53
National average18.34$14.49 to $14.73
Hawaii, the most expensive52.72$41.65 to $42.33

Rates are the EIA residential series, June 2026. Your own utility and any time-of-use plan decide the real figure.

The circuit this car needs

A home charger is a continuous load, so the National Electrical Code sizes both the breaker and the conductor at 125 percent of its draw. A charger matched to this car's 9.6 kW ceiling pulls 40 amps at 240 volts, which needs a 50 amp circuit rather than the 40 amp one the arithmetic alone suggests. That gap is where most installation quotes go wrong.

Of the 180 chargers that plug in directly here, 139 meet or beat the car's ceiling. Going above it changes nothing for this vehicle, though it leaves headroom for a future one that draws more.

Mercedes-Benz EQB home charging questions

How long does it take to charge a Mercedes-Benz EQB at home?
The Mercedes-Benz EQB accepts up to 9.6 kW of AC, so a charger that meets or beats that fills it as fast as the car allows. A full charge draws 79 to 80 kWh from the wall, which is about 8.2-8.4 h on the fastest compatible charger in this list. A charger rated above 9.6 kW does not charge it any faster.
What size charger does a Mercedes-Benz EQB need?
Match the car's 9.6 kW ceiling and stop there. 139 of the 180 chargers that plug in directly in this database reach it. Anything more powerful is spare capacity for a future car, not extra speed for this one.
Which connector does the Mercedes-Benz EQB use?
J1772 charge port, the standard port. J1772 chargers plug in directly; NACS chargers work with an adapter.
How much does it cost to charge a Mercedes-Benz EQB at home?
About $14.49 to $14.73 for a full charge at the national average residential rate of 18.34 cents per kWh (EIA, June 2026). Your own rate decides the real figure, and it varies by more than a factor of four between states.
How were these chargers chosen?
Only chargers with a verified price appear; ranked by charge rate on this car, then by that price; at most two per brand; ten rows at most. Nothing here is an editorial pick. Nothing is ranked by commission and no charger is called best. Every figure is verified against a primary source or left blank.
