From January 15 to 16, 2022, the "2022 New Mercedes-EQA EQB Test Drive Activity" was opened at Bailian Outlets (Qingpu Store). At the event site, more than 60 senior media people witnessed the new trend of the new Mercedes EQA/EQB and further understood the product charm of the new Mercedes-EQ series models.
In terms of exterior design, the front face part of the EQA follows the iconic "Dark Night Star Wing" closed front grille of the EQ series family, with a front and rear running light strip known as the "Ring of Time and Space", which enhances the design of the model. In terms of headlight design, the electric blue element exclusive to the EQ model is also definitely the finishing touch. The EQB model adopts a fully wrapped underbody skid plate to outline the body more three-dimensional and stylish. On the side of the body, the raised waist line enhances the visual sense of the car side, and the AMG wheels look stylish and creative design.
Inside the car, the EQA and EQB models are well known as the Interior Layout of the Mercedes-Benz family. For the first time, a nebula streamer trim was used directly in front of the front passengers, improving the brightness of the front seat. In terms of creating a sense of atmosphere, Mercedes-Benz is absolutely in place, such as the 64-color ambient lighting system and 10 kinds of interior atmosphere themes. Burmester Berlin Sound Surround Sound and Smog Terminator 3.0 provide a more enjoyable driving experience for drivers who have worked hard all day.
Although EQA is positioned in the A-class, it has a strong power performance, with a 100-kilometer acceleration time of 7.7 seconds, which is almost the same as a 2.0T model, and the driving sense is very good, in line with the consistent tuning method of Mercedes-Benz. The EQB has a more powerful power output, a 215KW dual motor 4 drive system, and a maximum torque of 520 Nm. It is worth mentioning that both models are equipped with front and rear dual motors to provide three different energy recovery modes.
Xiaobian specially chose the larger EQB car to test drive the experience. Its acceleration pedal response is very sensitive, the moment of stepping down, a strong sense of push back immediately emerged, the steering wheel feels calm, the chassis is thick, the control is excellent, it can be said that the acceleration performance of the pure electric model and the control of the Mercedes-Benz fuel model have been perfectly combined, that is, clean and clean and stable. At the same time, the EQB's braking system will dynamically adjust the motor brake and brake caliper braking according to the strength of the brake pedal you press, the current speed and many other conditions, so although the brakes are very sensitive, there is no easy to produce a sense of vertigo when braking like some pure electric models, providing good comfort for the driver and occupants. With Mercedes-Benz's consistently high level of NVH level, under high-speed driving, wind noise, tire noise suppression is in place, and motor noise at high speeds has been fully balanced, once again perfectly interpreting The highest requirements of Mercedes-Benz for riding comfort.
In the test drive of the comparison with the competing models, the organizer also provided three new energy vehicles of BMW IX3, Model Y and NIO ES6 for comparison. The first is when driving on straights, the EQA and EQB models benefit from dual-motor four-wheel drive, which makes them better controlled than the BMW iX3 (rear-drive) when accelerating at full electric doors. When it comes to cornering routes, the Model Y has a more serious roll, while the EQA and EQB models perform well and the handling is as good as ever. EQA and EQB two models are the use of EQ electric tires, with the tram special low drag AMG style thickened wheels, carrying more body weight while reducing the rolling resistance by 30%, these details of the careful design, all reflect Mercedes-Benz's professional and rigorous attitude to safety.
In terms of replenishment, it takes only 45 minutes for EQA to charge from 10% to 80%, which is very convenient for daily office workers. And at present, Mercedes-Benz already has 200 "star stations", 44 cities have "star escort" mobile emergency charging services, and 300 cities are covered with "star accompaniment". These will further protect the daily use of Mercedes-Benz new energy vehicle users across the country.
Intelligent assistance system has also become one of the functions that many offline models will provide to consumers, and Mercedes-Benz EQA and EQB are equipped with active lane keeping assist system and active brake assist system. The system can help drivers brake at ordinary driving speed in the city, which has achieved the purpose of avoiding cars and pedestrians, and further ensures the safety of drivers.
Whether from the perspective of its product tone or design, the two models EQA and EQB will set a new industry benchmark for the luxury electric vehicle market with detail distribution.
At the scene of the event, there are also quite a wealth of interactive experience activities and program interpretations, and the guests can experience the test drive of the competitive car, enjoy the violin and band performances, and also experience the full Taste of the New Year by writing the Spring Festival and tasting the sugar gourd to feel the taste of the New Year.
