What the Critics Say
Apart from some head toss—a function of its higher ride height and higher seating position—this little electric Mercedes SUV feels almost as calm and relaxing to be in as an S-Class. In terms of its EV competition, the EQB350 feels nowhere near as busy on poor roads as the stiffly sprung Volvo XC40 Recharge, and generates a lot less road noise than the Tesla Model Y.” – MotorTrend
The EQB is Mercedes-Benz’s most affordable EV, but you’d never guess that based on the top-notch cabin quality. This SUV’s interior showcases solid fit and finish, high-end materials and up-to-date tech features. Five-person seating is standard, and an optional third row boosts capacity to seven.” – U.S. News & World Report

While mostly minor in nature, there are still a variety of exciting updates to the electrified Mercedes-Benz EQB for the 2024 model year. Changes to its exterior look for 2024 include an updated front grille, front bumper, rear taillights, and the addition of a new light strip at the front of the vehicle.
