With the onboard charger, in the USA and the UK the charging time is 2.5 This enables the smart electric drive to be charged in less than 45 minutes (0-80%) when local conditions allow three-phase charging. The programmed departure time can be used both for intelligent charging and for the pre-entry climate control.
