ImportantHigh-voltage battery — fire risk, battery replacement (KBA 16136R)

A short circuit in the high-voltage battery can lead to a vehicle fire. Model years 2021–2024, 4,677 cars in Germany. The first fix (KBA 14775R) only changed the battery management — with slower rapid charging (10–80 % about 10–15 min longer) and gradually shrinking usable capacity.

Check: Check by VIN whether the new battery (KBA 16136R) has already been fitted. A software-only state (14775R) means throttled rapid charging and reduced capacity until the swap — allow for it on the test drive / charging test.

Coverage: Mercedes replaces the high-voltage battery free of charge (16136R); the charging and capacity limits then no longer apply. The KBA monitors the action. Status can be checked by VIN at a Mercedes dealer.

Distance with one ~15-min fast charge at 110 km/h (modelled).

Is it enough for your day-to-day?

Your distance per daykm

One charge lasts 6 days in winter (−10 °C) and 8 days in mild weather.

Using real-world range, charged to 80 %, 10 % reserve: 352 km per charge in mild weather, 267 km in winter.

600 km long trip

2 charging stops · +36 minmild

2 charging stops · +58 mincold

Fixed reference (roughly Munich–Berlin): leave full, arrive with a 10% reserve, and charge only what the rest of the trip needs (80% max — past that the curve goes flat). Modelled from real-world range and the charging curve.

Mild means ≈ 23 °C, cold ≈ −10 °C without pre-heating — the same for every car, so the figures compare.

What does charging cost?

	€/kWh	Full charge	per 100 km
Home (wallbox)	€0.34	€26	€5.94
Public AC	€0.50	€38	€8.73
DC fast charging	€0.60	€46	€10.48

Prices from the open assumptions (adjustable in the calculator); consumption = mild real-world incl. charging losses.

Charging curve (DC)

NMC: high energy density (more range), usually charge to ~80% for longevity.
