For an easier charging solution, the GLC 300 e 4MATIC Coupé will have a charging cable for domestic charging as a standard for this vehicle.

The on-board charger strikes an ideal compromise between size, weight and charging capacity. As well as using the domestic power supply, convenient and uncomplicated charging is possible during the journey, too.
