New EQA 300 4M and EQA 350 4M with 4MATIC technology

June 01, 2021

They have recently joined the Mercedes-EQ 100% electric range el new EQA 300 y EQA 350 both with 4MATIC technology, that is, with the all-wheel drive that so characterizes Mercedes-Benz. With these two models the EQ range It now has 6 100% electric vehicles, including the EQB, which although it does not yet have a release date, we already know that Mercedes-EQ is developing it.

Therefore, if you were one of those who were clear that they wanted a 100% electric vehicle, compact, SUV and with 4-wheel drive, you're in luck.

Why are these vehicles different from their predecessor the QA 250?

The advantage of 4MATIC technology from Mercedes-Benz, compared to other technologies that exist on the market, is that it can be activated or deactivated depending on the traction of the vehicle, thus allowing greater grip and stability to the vehicle in the moments when you need it most.

The use of Mercedes-Benz 4MATIC system allows the vehicle to circulate with front-wheel drive and can use all-wheel drive only when needed, reducing consumption of either fuel or, as in this case, batteries.

EQA-4MATIC

An important fact for EQ vehicles with 4MATIC technology is that they no longer use additional parts such as the drive shaft to transmit movement to the rear axle, but rather They use two electric motors, one on the front axle and one on the rear axle. As we had already seen in EQC. This technology It reduces the possible repairs of these components as well as the change of wearing parts and, most importantly, reduces weight so the vehicle increases its efficiency..

The start of production of these two vehicles with 4MATIC traction It is scheduled for June, but we already have some figures that denote the capacity of both models.

EQA 300 4M:

This model SKIP It develops a power of 168 kW (228 HP) with a torque of 390 Nm that is transmitted to the wheels from the moment we step on the accelerator. This characteristic of delivering maximum torque from the second we step on the accelerator is a characteristic of electric motors.

It is not surprising then, that with such a direct answer the new EQA 300 4M is capable of going from 0 to 100 km/h in just 7,7s and achieve a combined autonomy in the WLTP cycle that, depending on the selected equipment, will range between 409 km and 430 km, achieving greater autonomy in the city that goes from 494 km to 513 km, figures that never cease to surprise considering that we are talking about vehicles. 100% electric.

EQA 350 4M:

In the case of new EQA 350 4M, the power will increase to 215 kW (292 HP) with a torque of 520 Nm that allows the 0-100 km/h time to be reduced to around 1,7 seconds, achieving a more than reasonable 6 seconds to reach 100 km/h. Both engines will have the same combined autonomy in the WLTP cycle and all this without failing to remember that thanks to the 4MATIC four-wheel drive, the new EQAs have a more dynamic, efficient and sporty driving mode.

The price:

The price will not be a problem if you are looking for a vehicle with these features since the EQA 300 4M will be available from €54.500* and its older brother, the EQA 350 4M will be available from €56.675* very low prices considering that we are talking about 100% electric SUV vehicles with the seal and quality that Mercedes-Benz gives to its models.
