The Mercedes-Benz EQB (X243) is a seven-seat battery electric mid-size D-segment crossover SUV produced by the German automobile manufacturer Mercedes-Benz from 2021.[3]
Overview
The EQB is part of the EQ family[3] and is based on the Mercedes-Benz GLB. The EQB is available in both front-wheel drive and 4MATIC branded dual motor all wheel drive configurations. The Mercedes EQB is available in five and seven seat layouts.
The Mercedes-Benz EQBs for the Chinese market are manufactured at the Beijing Benz plant in China. Mercedes Benz-EQBs sold outside of China are manufactured at the Mercedes-Benz Kecskemet plant in Hungary, unlike the non-Chinese market fossil-fuel powered GLBs, which are manufactured at Daimler AG-Nissan joint venture COMPAS plant in Mexico.[4] The global EQB was initially intended to be manufactured in the Smartville factory (Hambach, France), but this plan was cancelled following the sale of this plant to Ineos.[5]
Sales of the Mercedes-Benz EQB began in late 2021 in China and Europe. Sales of EQB began in 2022 in other markets outside of China and Europe.[6][7]
