When you only have time for a quick stop:
When you have limited time but need to charge your car quickly, it’s smartest to use a fast charger. With fast charging, you can charge your car from 0 to 80% in 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the car’s battery capacity and temperature. In the Mer’s charging network, you will find two types of connectors for fast chargers: CCS and CHAdeMO. Your car only supports one of these connectors.

When you plan a longer stop:
On the other hand, if you have more time available, you can choose our regular chargers, also known as semi-fast chargers. The regular chargers provide alternating current (AC) with a power of up to 22 kW. The charging speed is determined by your car. The higher the charging power, the faster the car will charge. To charge using a regular charger, you will need your own charging cable
