Emission-free driving with vehicles powered by the battery and the fuel cell

With the near-series Concept BlueZERO, Mercedes-Benz is showing the way ahead toward environment-friendly electromobility. Its modular construction enables three electric drive concepts, which make use of different energy sources, to be implemented in the sandwich floor used in the A and B-Class. All three models feature a compact electric motor with a continuous output of 70 kW and a maximum torque of 320 Nm. They can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in eleven seconds. To achieve optimum range and energy efficiency, the maximum speed is limited to 150 km/h. Despite their compact external dimensions, they still have room for five full-size seats, a luggage compartment of more than 500 liters and a payload of 450 kg. On balance, an ideal car for embarking on the road to sustainable mobility.

Electric power: BlueZERO E-CELL
The embodiment of the purely electric drive can be seen in the E-CELL model. Its high-performance lithium-ion battery is liquid cooled and has a storage capacity of 35 kilowatt-hours (kWh). This enables the electric vehicle to achieve a local zero-emission range of up to 200 kilometers.

Hydrogen: BlueZERO F-CELL
The F-CELL variant can also cover long stretches without local emissions – except for some water vapor from the fuel cells. Under the European driving cycle (NEDC), the vehicle can easily achieve an electric range of approx. 400 kilometers.

Gasoline and electric power: BlueZERO E-CELL PLUS
The near-series Mercedes-Benz Concept BlueZERO E-CELL PLUS electric car combines environment-friendly electric mobility in the city with unrestricted suitability for long-distance driving. This is made possible by the combination of the battery-electric drive with a combustion engine. The range extender gives the BlueZERO E-CELL PLUS a total range of up to 600 kilometres, with 100 kilometres thereof solely under electric power. more
