Pricing
Starts at $128,200 before destination, across 2 EPA-rated trims. We verify every price by hand against manufacturer and dealer sources — if we can't confirm a number, we leave it blank instead of guessing.
Range and efficiency
48 miles on electricity alone, then the gas engine takes over for 470 miles total. In gas mode it's rated at 23.0 mpg combined. The honest math on a plug-in: if you charge nightly and your commute fits the battery, you'll barely buy gas.
Charging and fuel cost
Drive 60% of your miles on electricity at $0.17 per kWh and 12,000 miles a year costs about $649 in charging, plus gas for the long trips. Your actual split depends on your commute — run it in the fuel cost calculator.
Fast charging
On a DC fast charger it peaks at 60 kW (60 kW DC confirmed for UK S 580 e L; US 4MATIC DC capability not confirmed by US sources) — enough to add serious miles in the time it takes to grab coffee. Figures are manufacturer ratings for the best trim; real-world peaks vary with battery temperature and state of charge.
