Video Summary
Okay, here is a summary of the YouTube video, following your specific formatting requests:The EQA 250 Plus, introduced a couple of years ago, has a larger battery and a more efficient electric motor, resulting in more range.
The EQA is basically an electric Mercedes Benz GLA.
The GLA is Mercedes Benz’s entry-level SUV, and the EQA can be considered as the entry-level electric.
The test car is Premium Plus trim.
The color combination of Polar White with the Night Package around the windows and the wheel look good.
The wheels are difficult to clean.
Most EVs now have a light bar signature, which looks great.
The grille is a smooth, flush design.
Dimensions: Length 4.465 m, Width 2.020 m, Height 1.624 m.
The color contrast of polar white with the black night package and roof bar look very neat.
Boot space is 340L, and can be increased to 1,320L by folding the rear seats.
There is underfloor storage, containing the tire repair kit, manual and first aid kit.
Charging cable is stored in the boot, which eats into boot space, because there is no “frunk” storage.
Rear legroom is compromised with raised flooring due to battery placement.
Starting price: £49,700. The test car starts at just over £57,000.
It is a challenge to tow with an electric car, as the range will be reduced significantly.
Additional packages: Driving Assistance package, Towing package.
The navigation system uses Mercedes Me Charge, making the charging experience easier.
The dashboard screen design, introduced in 2018 in the A-Class, is still fresh today.
The car has a head-up display.
The car has a smooth ride that irons out bumps.
The car was slightly let down by front-wheel spin. A premium tax bracket is triggered because the car costs over £40,000.
Overall, it is a very good, capable electric car and definitely the way to go.
A potential buyer who is looking for a good first EV and wants to stay with a German brand should consider this one.
