When you reach the charging station, you are given specific details on how long the charging process will take and notified via the Mercedes me App as soon as the charge level is sufficient for you to continue your journey - thus ensuring that you reach your destination as quickly as possible. If the traffic situation or your driving style changes on the road, the scheduling of charging stops is automatically adjusted. So you are always relaxed when you arrive at your destination.
