The Concept EQ
Our revolution goes by the name of EQ
An intelligent mix of materials.
With "Concept EQ", Mercedes-Benz shows how electric cars can soon move into the fast lane: The concept vehicle, with the appearance of a sporty SUV coupe, gives a preview of a new generation of vehicles with battery-electric drives. With a range of up to 500 km and the typical Mercedes-Benz strengths of safety, comfort, functionality and connectivity, "Concept EQ" meets every demand in terms of contemporary, sustainable mobility.
The new generation of electric vehicles.
will be based on an architecture developed specifically for battery-electric models, which is scalable in every respect and usable across all models: the wheelbase and track width—as well as all other system components, especially the batteries—are variable thanks to the modular building- block system. The vehicle concept is thus optimised to meet every requirement of a future-oriented, battery-electric model family.
Performance [1]
The monolithic basic form of "Concept EQ" unites the genes of an SUV with the dynamic character of a coupe at the rear end. With a total output of over 400 hp in the most powerful variant and a maximum torque of over 500 lb-ft, "Concept EQ" accelerates to 100 km/h in under five seconds.
Design
Mercedes-Benz will market future battery-electric vehicles under the brand name EQ. The name stands for "Electric Intelligence" and is derived from the Mercedes-Benz brand values of "Emotion and Intelligence".
