Mercedes Benz India has just launched the EQA and as something none of us anticipated, the brand also launched the facelifted EQB at Rs 70.90 lakh (ex-showroom). The updated model now is available in a 5-seater option and also gets a few styling tweaks. The EQB is now available in 250+ and 350 4Matic variants.

Mercedes Benz EQB: Exterior and Interior
Just like what we see on the EQA, the EQB facelift gets a blanked-out grille with mini Mercedes stars. It also gets some new bumpers that give it a more sporty look and a full-width lightbar at the rear. The updated car also gets a new set of 19-inch AMG-styled alloy wheels.
On the inside of the car, the EQB gets the updated MBUX system, 12 speakers Burmester surround sound with Dolby Atmos, ADAS Level 2 functions, memory seats, dual-zone climate controls, a 360-degree camera, 7 airbags and a lot more.
Mercedes Benz EQB: Powertrain
The EQB 250+ gets the same powertrain as the EQA, a 70.5kWh battery with a single electric motor mounted at the front, producing 190PS and 385Nm torque. The EQB 350 4Matic gets a 66.5kWh battery pack with all-wheel drive and a total of 292PS and 520Nm of torque. Mercedes claims that in this configuration the EQB can sprint from 0 to 100kmph in just 6.2 seconds.
The smaller battery means the 350 has a WLTP range of 447 kilometres which is still good, just not as good as the 250+ which has a range of 535 kilometres. Using a DC fast charger at 100kW, the EQB facelift's battery can charge from 10 percent to 80 percent in 32 to 35 minutes.
Mercedes Benz: India sales
Mercedes-Benz also announced its best-ever H1 2024 and best-ever Q2 sales performance in India. The brand retailed a record 9262 units in the January-June 2024 period, registering a 9 percent YoY growth.
