What is Mercedes-Benz Electric Boost?

Many new models in our inventory feature Mercedes-Benz Electric Boost technology. So, what is the Mercedes-Benz Electric Boost, and why is it such a valuable performance feature? Mercedes-Benz Electric Boost is a mild-hybrid system which blends an electric motor with an internal combustion system. This brings out the best fuel efficiency possible without sacrificing power. In fact, you’ll find Mercedes Electric Boost technology on AMG®-enhanced Mercedes-Benz vehicles and even some Formula 1 race cars! Dive deeper into Mercedes-Benz Electric Boost technology with Mercedes-Benz Brampton, and continue your research at our Brampton showroom.

How Does Mercedes Electric Boost Work?

So, what is Mercedes-Benz Electric Boost, and how does it work? Mercedes-Benz Electric Boost is defined as a “mild hybrid system.” While a traditional hybrid vehicle uses an electric motor and combustion engine simultaneously, a mild hybrid system uses the electric system to boost the engine’s performance. This means you get a lighter, smaller, and more affordable alternative to the hybrid – but all the benefits! 

How do you use the Electric Boost on a Mercedes-Benz? Another benefit of mild hybrid technology is that it’s completely seamless and automatic. Just drive as normal throughout Caledon and Orangeville and enjoy the benefits. 

Why Use Mercedes Electric Boost?

  • Smoother ride: Mercedes Electric Boost delivers a smoother and quieter ride in Georgetown, because the engine gets additional torque and handling from the electrical system.
  • Increased fuel efficiency: Because of the electric motor, the engine can go through fuel much slower than a standard model. That means a huge boost in fuel economy.
  • Battery recharging: Unlike electric cars or plug-in hybrids, the Mercedes Electric Boost battery recharges itself as you navigate—no need to deal with charging stations or plugs.
  • More powerful acceleration: Mercedes Electric Boost technology delivers a surge in torque the second you step on the pedal, which means quicker and more powerful acceleration.
  • Eco Mode: Take advantage of Eco Mode; your Mercedes Electric Boost system will shut off the engine when unnecessary. This allows you to run on pure electricity!
