The Mercedes-Benz EQC (N 293) in high-tech silver on a country road

EQC.

The Mercedes-Benz among electric vehicles.

Exterior.

By virtue of its muscular proportions, the EQC is classed as a crossover SUV. The extended roof line and window layout with a low waistline and the coupé-like roof recess at the rear visually position it between an SUV and an SUV coupé.

The front-end design.

Electrifying appearance from the front: the EQC seamlessly combines form and function by fusing headlamps and air intake together in the Black Panel radiator grille. The hallmark Mercedes-Benz daytime running lamp torch continues in an LED light band centred above the radiator grille – this additionally emphasises the sporty width.

The side design.

The clear monolithic shape of the EQC is emphasised by powerfully sculpted surfaces, deliberately doing away with edges, swage lines and creases. There also are no roof rails, thus allowing the design of “Progressive Luxury” to develop its full effect. The dynamism of the sporty electric SUV is illustrated by the elongated coupé-like roof line and the design of the side windows.

The rear-end design.

From the rear, the EQC sports a high recognition value: the wide and very slim multi-piece tail light takes up the continuous LED light band of the front. Another differentiation from models with combustion engine is provided by the seamless design emphasising surfaces.

Interior.

The interior of the EQC reflects the future-oriented technology brand Mercedes-Benz in a fascinating way. It showcases special electro aesthetics, whose design idiom is inspired by consumer electronics. The interplay between the modern, EQC-specific colour scheme and the typical high value appeal of a Mercedes-Benz featuring leather and wood is impressive.

Cockpit and steering wheel.

Perfect vehicle control: the steering wheel sets the course, and not just on the road surface. It connects you with the vehicle and becomes a control centre. The Touch Control buttons on the left and right operate various navigation, telephony and entertainment functions. Last but not least, they set the speed/proximity control: everything under control without taking your hands off the steering wheel.

Touchpad.

Using the touchpad, you can operate the display of the infotainment system as you would a smartphone. Shift or enlarge the content quite simply with single gestures. Each input is confirmed with haptic feedback. The touchpad recognises your handwriting should you wish to enter addresses or phone numbers.

Control and display concept.

The control and display concept creates an emotional connection between driver, vehicle and passengers. The multimedia system (MBUX) is capable of learning thanks to artificial intelligence. Also unique is the voice control system, which even understands dialects and EQC-specific commands. Many control panels are based on the GLC – changes result from the additional scopes for the electric powertrain, among other things.

Luggage compartment and stowage facilities.

The luggage compartment of the EQC is generous at approx. 500 litres, despite the vehicle’s coupé-like roof line. The high-voltage battery does not affect suitability for everyday use either: when the seat backrests in the rear are fully folded down, bulky items can also be transported. With its stowage facilities, the interior also provides practical space for everyday items – the door pockets for example accommodate 1.5-litre bottles.

Interior lighting.

The ambient lighting showcases your interior with 64 selectable colours like a work of art. Here the EQC provides exceptional effects such as a charging visualisation. When charging, the interior pulsates for a short period in green, thus providing clear feedback.

MBUX.

The EQC features the innovative multimedia system MBUX – Mercedes-Benz User Experience – which has numerous EQ-specific functions such as the display of range, charge status and energy flow. EQ-optimised navigation, driving modes, charging current and departure time can also be controlled and set via MBUX.

Battery technology.

The EQC’s high-voltage lithium-ion battery is the central energy store for the electric drive and is of great importance in terms of the qualities of the overall vehicle. Both the range and the performance of the electric drive are directly dependent on the capabilities of the battery.

Powertrain technology.

Vehement power immediately from standstill: an electric motor each at the front axle and rear axle convert electrical into mechanical energy, and deliver impressive forward thrust. The intelligent operating strategy of the powertrain components supplies the power always wherever it is needed at the moment – efficiently and nearly silently.

Charging technology.

Fundamentally, after checking the mains power supply, an electric vehicle can be charged at any domestic power socket. Charging can be significantly faster using the Mercedes-Benz Wallbox. With this, the EQC is fully ready for use again overnight. Public charging stations are also an opportunity for “refuelling” your vehicle. And it is even faster via DC charging, e.g. at the powerful rapid-charging systems of IONITY.

Aerodynamics.

The EQC is one of the most aerodynamically efficient SUVs. An aerodynamically optimised vehicle design makes a significant contribution to increasing the real-world range.

ECO Assist.

Consume less energy, enhance the range – ECO Assist supports you with an anticipatory driving style. It continuously analyses whether a vehicle ahead is driving more slowly, or a speed limit or downhill gradient lies ahead. The ECO Assist gives you a visual indication accordingly.

Safety.

Mercedes-Benz Intelligent Drive combines safety and convenience innovations. With these intelligent systems, Mercedes-Benz is not only setting standards in automotive engineering, but is also taking another important step forward on the road to accident-free and autonomous driving.

MULTIBEAM LED headlamps.

For your perfect vision: the adaptive MULTIBEAM LED headlamps with individually controllable LEDs react to the traffic situation. Partial main beam omits other road users without dazzling them. And the cornering and active light functions illuminate the field of vision optimally so that you can detect dangers sooner.

Active Brake Assist.

Active Brake Assist is able to warn of impending collisions with vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians in certain cases, increase driver braking according to the situation – if necessary up to full brake application – and even initiate autonomous emergency braking. As a result, accidents can be prevented or their severity reduced. In conjunction with the Driving Assistance package with extended functions and detection capabilities.

Accident safety.

Mercedes-Benz’s extensive experience of high-voltage drive systems has led to a special safety concept. The EQC’s accident safety was validated at the Mercedes-Benz technology centre for vehicle safety (TFS), the most advanced crash test centre in the world. Here vehicles, including prototypes with large electric batteries, have been tested under harsh crash conditions. The result is a whole array of constructive measures which deliver the EQC’s high level of crash safety.

Acoustic ambient protection.

So that your vehicle also does not pose a danger to pedestrians and cyclists when driving in virtually silent all-electric mode, the acoustic environmental protection generates a specific Mercedes-Benz sound outside of the vehicle up to a speed of 30 km/h.

Parking package with 360-degree camera.

Optimum parking service on board. Active Parking Assist with 360° camera makes it easier for you to find a parking space and to manoeuvre into and out of parking spaces. The choice is yours: thanks to all-round visibility you can park your vehicle yourself – or have your vehicle parked stress-free.
