As electric vehicles are more and more accepted by people, traditional car companies have also accelerated the layout of the new energy vehicle market. Recently, Mercedes-EQ's new EQA pure electric SUV and new EQB pure electric SUV were officially listed in Hangzhou. Among them, the new EQA 300 4MATIC pure electric SUV debut special edition suggested retail price is 365,800 yuan, and the new EQB 350 4MATIC pure electric SUV debut special edition price is 437,800 yuan.
These are the two new generation of pure electric SUVs launched by Mercedes-Benz after EQC for the young market, marking the accelerated landing of Mercedes-Benz's "all-electric" strategy in China.
Both the new EQA and the new EQB use the "Night Star Wing" closed grille and the "Ring of Time" front and rear through light strips to build a stylish and dynamic electric aesthetic, and the side of the car has an exclusive badge of "Electric Blue". Among them, the new EQA has added an exclusive body color of gem gold, which will meet the fashion pursuit of electric trends by urban talents.
The interior continues Mercedes-Benz's traditional luxury features, with both models equipped with a 10.25-inch dual screen, 64-color ambient lighting system and EQ's exclusive nebula streamer trim, as well as a Burmester surround sound system and a smog terminator 3.0 system to provide a comfortable interior environment for drivers and occupants. The LCD dashboard is connected to the central control multimedia display, adopts a joint screen design, and integrates the MBUX human-computer interaction system, thereby enhancing the scientific and technological atmosphere in the car. Like GLA and GLB, it still uses a three-spoke multi-function flat-bottom steering wheel and a pocket gear design.
At the same time, the MBUX intelligent human-computer interaction system of the two vehicles has many EQ exclusive functions, and adopts a new AutoNavi custom navigation, which combines the functions of intelligent electric travel such as "EQ optimized navigation" with local scenario-based navigation services, and makes electric travel more comfortable and convenient with intelligent technology.
In terms of power, the new EQA and EQB are equipped with lithium batteries with a maximum capacity of 73.5 kWh and a net capacity of 70.5 kWh, and the cruising range under CLTC conditions can reach 537 km and 512 km respectively, and the power can be charged from 10% to 80% in 45 minutes.
Coupled with the high-quality "five-star" charging service, the two cars allow owners to enjoy a worry-free electric journey. In addition, they are equipped with dual motors in front and rear, providing 3 different energy recovery modes, providing abundant power and excellent handling performance under the blessing of the 4MATIC intelligent and timely four-wheel drive system.
In addition, the two new cars also use NVIDIA Parker chips, with 6-core CPU, 8GB DDR4 high-frequency memory, L2 level automatic assist driving, and support high-speed follow-up, lane change assist, lane keeping, active braking, steering assist, intelligent parking and other functions.
Although both cars have both luxury texture and pioneer technology sense, with avant-garde aesthetics, abundant power, rich equipment and intelligent technology to perfectly interpret the new generation of luxury electric vehicles should look like, but the two cars also have obvious differences, the new EQB is a 5-seat SUV, mainly aimed at a family of three, or single young people; and the new EQB adopts "5+2" 7-seat space and flexible layout, trunk volume up to 1620 liters, more inclined to meet the family diversification travel scenarios.
With the official launch of the new EQA pure electric SUV and the new EQB pure electric SUV, Mercedes-EQ will lead the pioneer luxury pure electric market segment in a big stride, and steadily move towards the "comprehensive electric" strategy, although these two pure electric models produced in China are only oil to electricity, but it can still be seen that Mercedes-Benz is determined to develop pure electric vehicles.
