Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs)

Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs) are fully electric vehicles powered by one or more motors that receive energy from rechargeable battery packs. BEV drivers benefit from a lower cost of ownership, as electric energy costs significantly less than gasoline and requires less routine maintenance. Another benefit of driving a BEV is that these vehicles don't produce tailpipe emissions, which makes them a great option for those who want to reduce their carbon footprint.

The 2024 Mercedes-Benz lineup offers BEV options, including:

• 2024 EQE Sedan
• 2024 EQS Sedan
• 2024 EQB SUV
• 2024 EQE SUV
• 2024 EQS SUV

Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles

If you want a middle-of-the-road option that offers the best of both worlds, you’ll want to check out Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs). These vehicles provide a traditional gas-powered engine, electric motor, and battery pack, allowing you to switch between electric-only, hybrid, or gas-only driving modes. Choose a PHEV for a more efficient and eco-friendly driving experience.

The PHEV models available for Mercedes-Benz include:

• 2024 GLC PHEV
• 2024 Mercedes-AMG® GT 4-Doors Coupe

Hybrid Electric Vehicles

Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEVs) combine traditional engines and motors, providing an exhilarating driving experience. The motor may be less powerful than a PHEV, but it still significantly improves horsepower and torque. And, unlike PHEVs, you don't need to worry about plugging HEVs in to recharge because they rely on regenerative braking to keep the power going. HEVs also don't have an electric-only driving mode, but they're still an excellent choice for drivers who want efficiency and power.

Mercedes-Benz offers a wide array of HEVs. To learn more about a specific model, contact our knowledge staff today.
