Mercedes EQB-Class at a glance
Quick model context before comparing photos and trim-level specifications.
Introduced in September 2021, the EQB translates the versatile, family-oriented formula of the GLB into a dedicated all-electric package. Built upon the MRA 2 architecture, it retains the upright styling and spacious cabin of its internal-combustion sibling, but introduces EV-specific aerodynamic enhancements and unique visual details to differentiate its zero-emission status. The initial lineup includes both front-wheel-drive and dual-motor 4Matic all-wheel-drive configurations, catering to a wide range of buyers who require an electric crossover capable of handling daily commuting, varied weather conditions, and light utility tasks. Measuring 4,684 mm in length with a 2,829 mm wheelbase, the EQB is engineered to maximize interior passenger and cargo volume within a relatively compact exterior footprint, making it highly maneuverable in city traffic while still providing substantial interior room.
- Power: 228-292 hp
- Transmissions: single-speed reduction gear
- Seating: 5 seats
Mercedes EQB-Class overview
Editorial context for design, cabin, performance, practicality, and buyer notes.
Design
The EQB-Class shares its core silhouette with the GLB, characterized by a tall roofline and vertical rear end that prioritize cabin space. Mercedes sets the electric version apart through distinct front and rear fascias, optimized for overall aerodynamic efficiency. Standard versions feature a streamlined exterior, while the available AMG Line adds sportier elements like a rear spoiler, roof rails, and 18-inch alloy wheels. With a ground clearance of 154 mm and an overall width of 1,834 mm, it maintains proportions well-suited for urban environments while still offering typical crossover presence.
Interior
Inside, the cabin closely mirrors the GLB, dominated by the MBUX infotainment system featuring dual 10.25-inch displays for the instrument cluster and main interface. The system can be controlled via touch, steering wheel pads, or a center console touchpad. The EQB offers an available third row, providing two extra seats designed for passengers up to 1.65 meters tall, complete with child seat anchors. The second row offers standard adjustable backrests and an optional 140 mm of sliding travel. Available comfort upgrades include a Burmester audio system, heated and ventilated front seats with memory, and a panoramic roof.
Performance
The EQB offers multiple powertrain choices, centered around a 66.5 kWh usable battery pack. The range starts with the front-wheel-drive EQB 250. Above it, the EQB 300 4Matic utilizes dual electric motors to produce 228 horsepower and 390 Nm of torque, reaching 100 km/h in 8.0 seconds. The top-tier EQB 350 4Matic increases output to 292 horsepower and up to 520 Nm of torque, dropping the sprint time to 6.2 seconds. Both 4Matic models offer a WLTP range of up to 419 kilometers. The electrical architecture supports fast charging at up to 100 kW, enabling a 10 to 80 percent charge in approximately 32 minutes.
Practicality
Flexibility is a major focus for the EQB. In its standard five-seat configuration, the trunk provides 495 liters of volume, expanding to a maximum of 1,710 liters when the 40:20:40 split-folding second row is stowed. The optional third row can be removed when not needed, adding to the total cargo area. The sliding second row also allows owners to balance rear passenger legroom with luggage capacity as required, making it highly adaptable for family use.
Safety and tech
Safety equipment includes standard automatic emergency braking with intersection support and a comprehensive suite of available driver aids. Buyers can equip the EQB with Distronic adaptive cruise control, active lane keeping, blind-spot monitoring, and a 360-degree camera system. The MBUX interface is adapted specifically for electric driving, capable of routing trips based on available charging stations. A companion app allows users to pre-condition the cabin temperature using grid power while plugged in, preserving battery range.
Buyer notes
When comparing EQB models, shoppers should consider whether they need the all-weather capability of the 4Matic versions or if the base front-drive EQB 250 suffices for their climate. Keep in mind that opting for the third row impacts standard cargo capacity and is well suited for young children or short trips. The AMG Line offers appealing visual and equipment upgrades, but buyers prioritizing ride comfort might prefer standard wheel sizes. Trim availability, specific motor outputs, and standard equipment lists will vary depending on the regional market.
