What we don't

    FAQs

    Is the Mercedes-Benz EQC a GLC?
    ChevronUp

    How big is the battery in a Mercedes-Benz EQC?
    ChevronUp

    The EQC has an 80kWh battery and a claimed range of 373km.

    How much power does the Mercedes-Benz EQC have?
    ChevronUp

    The Mercedes-Benz EQC has twin motors (and all-wheel drive) and offers 300kW and 760Nm output.
