Video Summary
The Mercedes-Benz EQC is built on the GLC architecture, using two electric motors and an 80-kilowatt-hour battery pack, and has a brand-new skin.The price ranges from $299,888 to $317,888.
Its electric drive train produces 402 brake horsepower and 760 Newton meters of torque.
The single-speed transmission can take the car from zero to 100 kilometers per hour in 5.1 seconds.
Its electro-look features a different-looking front grill, which is described as a horizontal light band between the two daytime running lights, providing a more fluid shape.
The curved surfaces and elongated body shape help the car cut through the air better, resulting in less drag and more range.
The EQC has a 500-liter boot.
The rear seats offer spacious legroom and headroom, with air-con vents and USB-C ports. There is no temperature control, but there is fan control, ISOFix points, and a storage area in the middle console with two cupholders.
This car has noise-insulating glass, making for a quiet ride.
While the electric SUV is said to have a good, usable drive train, its range is only considered solid, not fantastic.
It's a heavy car at 2.4 tons, but this weight helps the overall ride, planting it firmly on the road.
There is some flex felt in the rear when going over certain bumps.
The reviewer recommends potential buyers go try it, noting that its luxury and comfort mirror that of a modern Mercedes. While it's a very competent EV, it does not “excite” him.
