Mercedes has published product-related environmental information according to the ISO 14021 standard since 2005
External experts verify this detailed "360° environmental check" for vehicles
The EQE brochure has now successfully passed the validation audit
Stuttgart. Important factors for the life cycle assessment of an electric car include the production of the high-voltage battery and the external charging processes during vehicle operation. #mercedesbenz bases its model calculations on two different assumptions: the standard scenario takes into account the country-specific power mix for charging the high-voltage battery and production of the battery cells. In the regenerative scenario, however, energy from renewable sources is used in each case.
Both scenarios are based on a mileage of 250,000 km for the EQE. If energy from renewable sources (hydroelectric power) is used for cell production in China and charging power in Europe, the CO2 emissions over the lifecycle can be almost halved.
Interesting facts & figures: the sustainability of the EQE at a glance
The EQE achieves an excellent cd value as low as 0.22 thanks to its one-bow design and extensive aerodynamic measures.
184 components with a total weight of more than 78.3 kg can be made partly from resource-saving materials (recycled plastics and renewable raw materials).
The cell chemistry of the battery generation has also been optimised for sustainability: the active material consists of nickel, cobalt and manganese in a ratio of 8:1:1. The cobalt content is thus reduced to ten percent. Responsibly mined and processed raw materials provide the foundation for a sustainable #mercedesbenz electric vehicle fleet.
The majority of suppliers, who account for almost 90 percent of the annual procurement volume, have already signed an Ambition Letter. This declares their agreement to only supply parts produced in a CO2-neutral manner in the future.
Since 2022, all company-owned #mercedesbenz passenger car and van plants worldwide have been producing on a CO2-neutral basis.
Since 2021, #mercedesbenz has ensured a subsequent offset with #green electricity when customers use Mercedes me Charge1 to charge their vehicles in Europe. Certificates of origin ensure that corresponding amounts of #green electricity are fed into the grid for charged energy quantities after the actual charging process.
