Did you know that there are two ways to charge your Smart #1 Brabus? You can either use a regular wall socket or a charging station. However, when you're out and about, you'll only be able to use a charging station for public charging, as a wall socket won't be adequate. The speed at which your electric vehicle charges depends on the type of charging station or EVSE you use, as well as the maximum charging capacity of your EV. Below is a table of all the available charging options for your Smart #1 Brabus, along with an approximate time needed to charge the battery from empty to full.
Europe
Charging electric vehicles (EVs) in Europe can vary across different countries. Some European countries predominantly use 1-phase connections to the grid, while others primarily rely on 3-phase connections. The table provided highlights the various methods available for charging a Smart #1 Brabus. However, it's important to remember that some charging modes may not be available in certain countries. Therefore, we recommend that you consult your local electric vehicle charging networks to identify which options are accessible to you.

Fast Charging (10 → 80%)
Quick and efficient charging is crucial to extend your electric vehicle's range, and this is where fast charging comes into play. Fast charging provides an optimal amount of charge in the shortest amount of time possible. However, after reaching an 80% state of charge (SoC), the charging power significantly decreases. That's why conventional fast charging typically stops at 80% SoC.
The charging speed of an electric vehicle is determined by two factors: the charging station being used and the maximum charging power that the EV can handle. To help you understand how to quickly charge your Smart #1 Brabus, we've included a comprehensive table below.
Max. Power: maximum power provided by charge point
Avg. Power: average power provided by charge point over a session from 10% to 80%
Time: time needed to charge from 10% to 80%
Rate: average charging speed over a session from 10% to 80%
