Mercedes-Benz celebrated the world premiere of the new, fully electric EQC (combined power consumption: 22.2 kWh/100 km; combined CO2 emissions: 0 g/km, provisional figures).
Dieter Zetsche presented the first Mercedes-Benz model under the product and technology brand EQ to over 600 invited guests. As a purely battery electrically powered vehicle, the EQC stands for an impressive combination of comfort, quality and day-to-day suitability. In visual terms the crossover SUV is the front-runner for an avantgarde electric look. Not only the protagonist itself, but also the location for the world premiere was a statement for sustainability.
“The EQC brings design, functionality and service together in a unique way. It offers day-to-day suitable e-mobility in a very special package. The EQC is an electric car, and at the same time 100 percent a Mercedes,” said Dieter Zetsche, chairman of Daimler AG and chief executive officer of Mercedes-Benz Cars.
With its seamless, clear design and color highlights typical of the brand, the EQC is the front-runner for an avantgarde electric look while embodying progressive luxury with its design idiom. With respect to quality, safety and comfort, the EQC is the Mercedes-Benz among electric vehicles and immediately impresses with the sum of its attributes. These are accompanied by dynamic performance, thanks to two electric motors at the front and rear axles with a combined output of 300 kW (provisional figure). Thanks to a sophisticated operating strategy, an electric driving range of more than 450 km according to NEDC (provisional figure) is possible. EQ also offers comprehensive services with Mercedes me, and makes electromobility convenient and suitable for day-to-day motoring.
(Provisional Figures) Figures for electrical consumption and CO2 emissions are provisional and were determined by the technical service. The range figures are also provisional. EC type approval and conformity certification with official figures are not yet available. There may be differences between the stated figures and the official figures.
