Grab a coffee, we’ve got news to share: Mercedes-Benz High-Power Charging and Starbucks are launching a collaboration that allows for a seamless integration of EV charging into customers’ daily Starbucks routines at more than 100 stores across America. Our vision: electrifying the 1,400 mile Interstate I-5 corridor from the Canadian all the way to the Mexican border with 400 kW fast chargers. So, here’s a scenario for your weekday morning commutes in the near future: It’s 7 AM. You stop at your local Starbucks and order your go-to “iced grande doubleshot hazelnut drizzle caramel latte” and give them your name – a quick and easy one for me: O-L-A. As soon as your coffee’s up, you head back out to your, say, #EQS, which is now as recharged as you are, and ready to roll for up to another 300 kilometres according to WLTP. It’s 7:15 AM.
