Mercedes electric prototype travels more than 1,000 kilometers without recharging

The soon-to-be streamlined Mercedes prototype has covered a distance of 1,008 kilometers: from the Mercedes research center in Sindelfingen (Southern Germany) to Cassis on the French Riviera. After the journey of almost 12 hours, the car still had a range of about 140 kilometers.

The prototype is equipped with a battery of approximately 100 kilowatt hours (kWh) and consumed an average of only 8.7 kWh per 100 kilometers. That is less than half of comparable current models. The test shows that an output of “close to 10 kWh is absolutely realistic, even for a production car in the near future,” says Schäfer.
