Mercedes-Benz EQESUV as a representative model under Mercedes-Benz's new energy strategy, can be said to be pinned on high hopes, what surprises this car can bring to car lovers, let's take a look.
Appearance.
The intelligent digital LED headlights equipped on the car need to be installed separately in Europe, and it is believed that the mainstream models of EQESUV on the domestic market will be equipped with this set of optional headlights as standard.
There are two styles of EQESUV350 wheels in the European version, both of which are multi-spoke designs, and they are exclusive to AMGLine, and I personally think that the glossy style is more in line with the tone of Mercedes-Benz.
But even so, Mercedes-Benz has really done a good job in creating a sense of luxury atmosphere. It is through many small details to achieve this effect of quantitative change to qualitative change.
Just like this air conditioning outlet, its design and shape are very simple, but Mercedes-Benz can do a little better in terms of material selection, touch control, process processing, flatness and quality consistency, so that this piece feels different.
The EQESUV3504MATIC front and rear permanent magnet motors have a peak power of 215 kW and a maximum torque of 765 Nm. 90.6 dry watt-hour ternary lithium battery with NCM811 formulation. How does it dramatically reduce energy consumption?
First of all, heat pumps are standard on all EQESUVs, which are much more efficient than PTC heating. Secondly, in terms of vehicle thermal management, Mercedes-Benz has opened up the cooling pipeline between the cockpit environmental system and the drive unit through multi-directional valves.
The front face of the previous generation EQC is actually a heat dissipation opening up and down, although the interior is equipped with an active air intake grille, but due to the thermal management measures are not very ideal, in the actual driving, the grille needs to be opened a lot of working conditions, increasing wind resistance.
The EQESUV only has cooling air intakes on the lower edge of the front face, and it is also equipped with an active grille. In our actual tests, even in the heat of Portugal, the grille opened for a short time, which helped to reduce wind resistance.
The edges on both sides of the bumper not only have the common spoiler air ducts, but also have Mercedes-Benz's patented vortex generation baffles below to generate more energetic vortices, which together with the air duct above, form an air curtain on the side of the tire.
In many other cars, the rear wheel baffle is designed to meet body size regulations. Mercedes-Benz aerodynamics engineers told us that the EQESUV baffle is designed to allow airflow from the side of the car around the rear wheels.
When switched to Sport mode, this problem is greatly alleviated with the help of adaptive shock absorbers, but driving in a straight line will reduce comfort due to the increased damping field.
If you continue to press a little deeper, the pedal will become more stable when the mechanical brake starts to intervene, and this lack of linearity will hopefully be optimized in the future.
