A C-Class wagon will not be continued, the gap it leaves being filled with this EQC SUV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Under the sleek EQC body is the new MB.EA architecture for medium-sized and large vehicles. Contrary to what was originally planned, the drive technology presented in the EQXX (the so-called eATS 2.0 drive train) is not only finding its way into the smaller MMA vehicles, i.e. the electric A-Class successors, but also into the MB.EA series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Means: 800-volt technology, a modern, efficiency-enhancing silicon carbide inverter, still more conventional radial flux motors with an expected 250 to 500 hp, rear or all-wheel drive and all-wheel steering and &#8211; unlike the EQXX &#8211; a two-speed gearbox to reduce consumption even further. On the battery side, Mercedes will significantly increase the current energy density, the 110 kWh battery in the EQS comes to 550 Wh per liter, in the future up to 800 Wh\/l should be possible. This means: More energy can be stored in the same space, or the batteries can become significantly smaller and lighter. Around 100 kWh are also conceivable in the EQC and EQC SUV, which ideally would be enough for almost 1000 kilometers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"aes-custom-banner\">\n<!-- START ADVERTISER: from tradedoubler.com -->\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\nvar uri = 'https:\/\/imp.tradedoubler.com\/imp?type(img)g(21141248)a(2263928)' + new String (Math.random()).substring (2, 11);\ndocument.write('<a href=\"https:\/\/clk.tradedoubler.com\/click?p=215445&#038;a=2263928&#038;g=21141248\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"'+uri+'\" width=\"300\" height=\"250\" border=\"0\"><\/a>');\n<\/script>\n<!-- END ADVERTISER: from tradedoubler.com -->\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Being one of the pioneers of electric mobility in Germany, Mercedes has just begun testing their second generation EQC SUV.
