The 2026 Mercedes-Benz VLE 300 Electric is a next-generation, all-electric Grand Limousine that combines the spaciousness of a premium minivan with the comfort and handling of an executive sedan.
The model is the first production vehicle built on the dedicated VAN.EA electric platform and offers a flexible interior with seating for five, seven, or eight passengers.
The powertrain features a front-mounted permanent-magnet synchronous electric motor with an output of **203 kW — 276 l.s.** The electric motor drives the front wheels and delivers smooth, quiet acceleration without any lag.
Acceleration to 100 km/h takes about **9.5 seconds**, and the top speed is limited to **180 km/h**.
The lithium-ion battery, with a net capacity of **115 kWh**, provides a range of up to **709–713 km according to the WLTP cycle**.
Thanks to its 800-volt architecture, the car supports high-speed DC charging with a power output of up to 300 kW: in about 15 minutes, you can recharge enough energy for approximately 350 km of driving.
Average energy consumption is approximately 18.4–20.7 kWh per 100 km, depending on the trim level and driving conditions.
The AIRMATIC air suspension, fully controllable chassis, and new MB.OS digital architecture ensure a high level of ride comfort and agility.
