Intelligent electric mobility.
Welcome to the world of Mercedes-Benz EQ electric vehicles.
Uncompromisingly electric with the Mercedes-Benz EQ models.
Uncompromisingly electric with the Mercedes-Benz EQ models.
All-electric mobility means no local emissions, virtually silent movement and superlative response. In short, an all-new driving experience and a forward-looking form of mobility that is reminiscent of the pioneering achievements of 130 years ago.

Charging system
Thanks to an intelligent charging system, the battery can be charged using all conventional charging options. This includes domestic sockets, wallboxes, alternating current charging stations (AC) and rapid charging stations (DC).
The on-board charger is integrated into the vehicle and manages charging via the public power grid. It transforms alternating current (AC) into direct current (DC) voltage. Alongside the option of charging at a "normal" mains connection (AC), it is also possible to charge the vehicle at DC charging stations (rapid charging stations).
High-voltage lithium-ion battery
The high-voltage lithium-ion battery is the central energy store for the electric drive. Both the range and the performance are directly dependent on the capabilities of the battery.
The battery is charged externally on the power grid. In addition, energy is recovered by way of recuperation during braking procedures and in overrun mode. The battery is installed in the underbody for a dynamically favourable low overall vehicle centre of gravity
Electric motor
One electric motor at the front axle and rear axle respectively converts the electrical energy from the high-voltage battery into mechanical energy, and delivers impressive forward thrust from the first rev.
To reduce electrical consumption and to improve dynamics, efficient distribution of the drive forces is steplessly regulated between the front and rear axles.
Recuperative brake system
For additional range: there is great potential to reduce consumption by increasing recuperation in overrun mode and braking phases.
This takes place via intelligent, efficiently optimised distribution of the deceleration torque. When you press down on the brake pedal, the electric motor initially takes on the task of decelerating the vehicle, acting as an alternator. You can also influence recuperation performance using the shift paddles on the steering wheel in several stages.
