Strange how these car review channels never mention dogs. My dog travels with me everywhere in the car, even more often than my wife. That third row seating is fine for dogs (and kids).

I test drove one: the rear seat space I found really unimpressive - the floor is high and seats are low so I had my knees pointing upwards. I think for anyone over 5'5" it would be very uncomfortable in the back on long journeys. And, of course, only 2 "real" seats with a half-seat betweem them rather than 3 individual seats. The rest of it seemed fine, if unexceptional.

Great review, very comprehensive. I quite like the EQB styling and looks great quality. However as a company car driver, it’s unfortunately hugely expensive to lease - try 50% more than a high spec Enyaq that’s not far off the entry level EQB on list price and even more than that against an ID Buzz. Pity, Merc’s used to be good value as a company car due to the slow depreciation, but I guess those days are gone 😢

The price of success perhaps? The more volume-oriented they become, the faster the depreciation. That’s the issue with the big German brands chasing sales figures.

I used to drive an MG4. However, my wife has mobility issues and needs to use a wheelchair. She found getting in and out of the MG4 increasingly difficult and one of the rear seats had to be folded down in order to fit her wheelchair in. We therefore narrowed our search for a new car down to the EQB and the BMW iX3. Whilst I liked the EQB the BMW had the edge and we took delivery of a new BMW iX3 M Sport Pro last Saturday.

Ordered my EQB 350 4MATIC Premium Plus. Unfortunately, Merc advised they cannot add the Driving Assistance Pack to the Premium Plus model. Some issues they have. Also, I have not purchased the car, it is part of the salary sacrifice scheme at work. £498 per month. Includes, fully comp insurance, yearly service, tyre replacements, curtesy car, roadside assistance, accident management and road tax. Would never buy it outright ridiculously priced. Arrives in July. Excited.

Thanks for the good test. Some comment. Seven-seater? Just forget about it. Unusable back row. And three in the middle row? You won’t be able to do that with child seats. So only suitable for a very select family composition and application. If you have a family with five children, buy a decent suv or a minivan. And if it’s not electric, then not. This car is not sufficient and is therefore too expensive.

If you’re using car seats then the back row is perfect, this is perfect if you have kids under 6ft ish, if you regularly need to transport adults forget about it this isn’t for you.

As with all of these EVs built on combustion platforms, they just aren’t as good as they should be due to the compromised packaging. I’m not convinced by tiny 3rd row seats either, put in seats and adult can use for short journeys or don’t bother

So, first of all, thank you for your comment. It’s very much appreciated. So allow me a few minutes to try and explain why our videos are so long. When we moved AutoEV from being a printed magazine to a KZitem channel, the automotive review landscape was crowded with big names such as Carwow, Electrifying, Drive Electric, etc. Many of those channels have big personalities presenting on them too, so how could we stand out? What would separate AutoEV from these others? We decided to go into more detail, focus more on what might be important to actual car buyers and give a more in-depth review. Especially in an era where online purchasing is becoming much more accepted and carried out. If we could give more information and be the last review someone watches before buying, it would stand us apart. So we went against the norm and went long….. Now we know it will cost us views and subscribers, but it’s now become our standard of you like. Many manufacturers like the fact we are a bit different and deliver this level of detail to prospective customers. Anyway, I felt it deserved a response explaining why we do this longer review. I hope that helps you understand why we do it, but appreciate it won’t be appealing to everyone. I do hope you stay with us and watch more, but if not, thank you for taking the time to watch and put your view across. Every comment is read and considered, so thank you for the support. Bryan.

I hear you, but our reviews are aimed at car buyers and therefore include a lot of detail. We often get asked why they are so long, and that’s why. We need to stand apart from the competition as our media space is very crowded, and we do so by being much more in depth with more detail and information. I hope you understand, but thank you for taking the time to comment.

It’s not just the exterior. The level of quality, the ergonomics, the way everything is thought out and works perfectly in a Mercedes, is what the price is about. You can’t get that cheap, not even from China.
