2022 Mercedes EQC - Wonderful Small SUV!

Mercedes-Benz EQC
Starting at $68.895
Highs Plush cabin, refined handling, costs less than some competitors.
Lows Some rivals offer quicker acceleration, shorter driving range than some competing models, infotainment system's touchpad comes with a learning curve.
Verdict The EQC isn't the quickest pick in its class, but it's an excellent choice if you're looking for an electrified SUV that rates highly for comfort and luxury.
Overview
A growing number of carmakers offer electrified transportation, and Mercedes-Benz had planned to enter the fray with the EQC before pulling the plug on its electric SUV in early 2021. Mercedes-Benz was careful to say that the EQC could be introduced to the U.S. in the future, but for the time being it will remain an option only in overseas markets. The EQC would have been a compact SUV that offered seating for five. Its fully electric powertrain would have delivered quiet performance, along with the crisp acceleration that's part of the package with many luxury EVs. Its cabin looked appropriately deluxe, with high-gloss plastics, attractive textiles, and modern design. Overall, the EQC's blend of Mercedes-Benz opulence and eco-friendly electrification would have made it an attractive pick for green-minded luxury-SUV buyers.
What's New?
The Mercedes-Benz EQC was initially intended to be all new for the 2021 model year, but unfortunately that plan has changed and the German automaker has decided not to bring the EQC to market in the United States.
Pricing and Which One to Buy
Progressive: $68,895
Premium: $73,265
Advanced: $77,615
The Mercedes-Benz EQC's Progressive trim would have come with enough standard features to keep most luxury-SUV buyers happy. All models come were going to offer a sunroof to let natural light into the cabin, and rain-sensing wipers to keep the windshield clear on stormy days. A power liftgate would also have been standard, along with LED headlights.
EV Motor, Power, and Performance
The EQC would have paired two electric motors with a lithium-ion battery. A one-speed direct-drive transmission was used to power to all four wheels. This powertrain would have provided a total output of 402 horsepower and 561 lb-ft of torque. We never had the chance to test the EQC, but Mercedes-Benz estimated that it would have made the sprint from zero to 60 mph in 4.8 seconds. That would have put it behind its key rival in this segment, the Tesla Model X. Tesla claims a zero-to-60-mph time of 4.4 seconds for the Long Range model and 2.7 seconds for the high-performance variant with Ludicrous mode engaged.
Range, Charging, and Battery Life
We expected the EQC would have delivered a driving range of 200 miles or less. That would have put it well behind the Tesla Model X, which can travel for more than 300 miles on a single charge. It's perhaps this shorter driving range that ultimately led to the decision to cancel the EQC for the United States.
Interior, Comfort, and Cargo
The EQC's cabin would have provided more outright luxury than buyers will find in rivals such as the Tesla Model X and Jaguar I-Pace. The construction was solid, the execution was impeccable, and the quality of the materials used was above reproach. The high-quality cabin is yet another reason to be disappointed in the EQC's cancellation. Mercedes never disclosed final cargo capacity for this SUV. However, as a reference point, the GLC-class upon which the EQC would have been based provides about 19 cubic feet of cargo space behind its rear seats.
Infotainment and Connectivity
As you'd expect, the EQC would have come with an up-to-date selection of tech features. SiriusXM satellite radio and a Burmester sound system were going to be standard. The cabin would have offered two 10.25-inch screens; one for the instrument cluster and one for the infotainment system. Combined, they would have given the cabin a contemporary look.

[@janikdo4560]

Sorry mate, but what is different from previous years? It is still the same ☺️

[@marktrustin617]

When is it available??

[@peterhorak3602]

They need to get rid off the driveshaft hump at the rear seats. Tesla has a perfectly flat floor at the back so that the middle rear passenger doesn't have to straddle that hump.

[@magicalworld2021]

Tesla?? It's too boring to be in a tesla!!! It's a MERCEDES. there's absolutely not any comparison bro.

[@sdn3408]

سلام !! واقعا زیباست!! جالب بود!! سپاسگزارم!!!

[@augustolima9137]

[@dennysun9051]

역시 차 만드는 실력은 우리보다 한수 위고 앞서네요. ㅠ..현대기아차도 조금만 더 분발해줘요. 화이팅!!

[@ВячеславАнархист]

Хочу такую !

[@gernothintermaier5743]

Was macht man mit EQC nach acht Jahren, wenn der Akku platt ist? Mercedes verlangt derzeit für den Austausch inklusive Akku 42.000 Euro laut Mercedes-Werkstatt! Kein Wunder, dass es einen gewaltigen Preisrutsch gegeben hat. Nach acht Jahren landet das Auto dann auf dem Schrottplatz zzgl. Entsorgungskosten über einen Spezialentsorger - vielen Dank für die Nachhaltigkeit!

[@DerLuckyLuke]

Du kommentierst unter jedem EQC Video. Such dir ein Job !

[@UnicorngirlLilyana]

[@marianaosman6228]

Wats the price?

[@scottludwig3446]

Was looking forward to this and really want to like it, but pause at 4:10 and try to say it's a clean dash design. Nope. Looks like the interior designer was tipsy and somehow the entire QC department let it move forward that way? Symmetry is more sophisticated than forcing this driver-centric skewing on these luxury SUV's.

[@lunafringe10]

Können sich nur wenige leisten

[@sophial.6633]

The back light that is a straight line from side to side and the rims look a lot like a Lincoln. I wonder if companies buy designs from each other or just go with trends.

[@carloskolos]

Just accept the car is wonderful ! . Lines or No lines , the car is amazing .

[@mzenn160]

How much please

[@sameralgrary5321]

I wish I had one like it but unfortunately I live in Iraq
