Mercedes-Benz has put an all-electric compact model from Mercedes-EQ for the first time on the road.
This marks the entry into the purely battery-electric vehicle world of Mercedes-EQ. The compact electric SUV will be available at European Mercedes-Benz dealers in the spring of 2021, according to the automaker.
The new EQA takes all the positive features of its sister model GLA and combines them with a highly efficient electric drive. With an output of 140 kW, the EQA 250 (power consumption combined: 15.7 kWh/100 km; CO2 emissions combined: 0 g/km)[1] demonstrates how the brand with the star envisions tailor-made e-mobility for the diverse needs of young, urban target groups. After the market launch, further power levels up to over 200 kW as well as a variant with all‑wheel drive will successively follow.
