The Mercedes-Benz EQB 250+, available since October 2023, is a refined electric 7-seater SUV that combines luxury with family practicality. Powered by a 70.5 kWh usable lithium-ion battery, it achieves a real-world range of 415 km with an efficient 170 Wh/km consumption rate.
The EQB 250+ uses a front-wheel drive system delivering 140 kW (190 PS) and 385 Nm of torque, propelling it from 0–100 km/h in 8.9 seconds. Its top speed is 160 km/h, suitable for both city and highway driving.
On AC, it supports 11 kW charging (with an optional 22 kW upgrade), reaching full charge in 7h45m. For fast DC charging, the EQB uses the CCS Combo port with a maximum power of 102 kW, charging 10–80% in 35 minutes. It also supports Plug & Charge via ISO 15118 and Autocharge features, streamlining public charging.
Though not built on a dedicated EV platform, the EQB rides on the MFA2 architecture, balancing practicality and efficiency. It includes a heat pump, roof rails, and 495–1710 L of boot space, while supporting up to 1400 kg towing capacity (braked).
