Home EV charger setup
The smart-night savings above require a home charger. Without one, you'll charge on public networks at significantly higher rates.

estimated per year
PHEV maintenance is 30–40% more expensive than equivalent petrol C-Class due to battery monitoring, hybrid transmission complexity, and cooling system servicing; budget €1,500–2,000 annually after year 5 as degradation accelerates.
