I found your channel via the Tesla vs Audi range race with Mat, and I have to say that I love your on screen demeanour. You've got good things coming your way on KZfaq, especially as EVs are making some strides in the ever growing market. Good luck.

Thanks for the review I've had my EQC for 6 months now and I'm really enjoying it. There's a depth to the vehicle and I actually like its more traditional approach. The refinement is outstanding. I think MB were very conservative with the battery management on the EQC as the gross capacity is over 93kWh with 80kWh usable resulting in large buffers and relatively flat charging speeds. In terms of cargo space, we have a small greyhound and she's very happy in the back!

Nice to mention Bjørn's channel. I am subscribed to both yours and his and you complement each other quite nicely!

Great in depth review - although this vehicle is the AMG Line version, it's definitely not standard spec. The wheels, sunroof, sound system, 360 camera, augmented display are Premium pack and above options.

Great review as usual - but wish you could let us know just a bit more about the pros and cons of the cars. For sure you know about them with your vast experience. Looking forward to more great episodes in the future.

Amazing video as always. Thanks so much for doing these Videos.

Hooks on the handles of the back are for light object, e.g. clothing like a jacket. (see instruction manual of the EQC). This was a translation from the Dutch version of the manual.

Very good review, thanks! You have upped the production values too :)

I have an EQC in white and would love it dechroming!!! Can always feature the car if you need it for more video ideas too!

Excellent review thanks. Could do with toning down the music and loudness of it though ...

As a Tesla 2020 M3LR owner i am envious of that rear screen wiper but the centre rear seat's headrest blocked most of the rear view. Can the headrest be lowered? And agree with the "piano black" console comment - dust and scratch magnet area

Excellent review covered all the important aspects of the car.

A much better looking vehicle than some of their other SUV's. Frony and sides look good, but the rear view..... Bladish. Anyway, thanks for another great episode.

I drove this at its introduction in 2020. The Mercedes experience is what it is. They know how to sell cars. They also know how to build cars. And the ECQ is a great car in its lineup. However, it was presented in between a GLC43 and GLC63, because that's where it sits in terms of price. And to be honest, when you spend this kind of money and when you're shopping in AMG territory, you'd go for a GLC63. It's just more special. I felt exactly the same when I attended an experience day at Audi and drove the eTron 55. Another driver rocked up in his SQ8 and neither him or I were interested in the electric version, especially given the sticker price being identical. When I bought my Model S in 2016, it just felt special, it still does and still impresses anyone stepping into it. Does that make me a Tesla fanboy, probably... But I am as excited about the Ioniq 5 and EV6, which will have a greater impact than the iPace, eTron 55 and EQC. On a side note. The interior of the EQC looks great, however doesn't feel great, it''s a dust collector in the many grills and when I stepped in my mate's EQC again 18 months later, it felt dated. Even he feels that way. And is looking at the eTron GT.

Really love the look of the EQC I'd probably have one on looks alone if I could afford one.

Had my EQC for 2 months now and I agree with most if not all of what you say. There are some annoying details of which you touched on one, the black piano lack. Another one is the decor stripes that goes from the doors all around the windshield. When the sun shines the reflexion from these makes you think you have a longitudnal crack in the windshield. Otherwise I am very happy with my EQC. Thanks for another of your excellent videos!

The lateral step (the thing to help you either get in or see above the car) should stay whitish, otherwise one might not see it at night.

I was thinking about buy one of these new but I don’t no if to hang off the range doesn’t seem High

does this car have adaptive cruise control?

'Power Nap' - exactly the setting you need whilst driving :)

After my M3LR, it’s looks horribly messy inside. Charging availability aside, it’s probably good for a largish family and with MB network, plenty of service centres. The one I looked in had a very odd odour which I couldn’t put up with.

Having had several C class saloons and a GLC (which this car is based on) I have also noticed the slightly off centre - to the driver - steering wheel but it isn’t something you notice while driving.

Really enjoyed this review. Ive subscribed and I intend to buy a EQC in April of this year. Albeit a used one.

Mercedes E tron..That’s a new one. Great videos though ,always informative.

Thank you for your honesty. Question what is the time frame to do a full charge?

Will you be reviewing the EQB at some point?

This car looks so nice in black. No need to black out for the sport look bc it looks classy. And i hate chrome ha

Unfortunately found put the Burmiester stereo is no longer available even on the Premium plus package due to shortage semi Conducters which is an absolute shame especially considering the extra cost!!

You need to add the 'Night' pack to dechrome with Mercedes's

How much would you charge for a dechrome?

Best looking EV on the market!

The soft bags for the 2 cables are in the boot under the floor pan where they fit in the dedicated space

Thank you for your honest review. You are a Tesla fan but your judgement is non biased

I agree about cleaning those wheels! I guess you’ll need to use Regen braking everywhere! 😆

Came from car wow bought a Tesla model 3 long range off your recommendation

17:00 it looks like it has a rev-counter ? 😮

How much! to insure?

First time for a long time I’ve seen a Mercedes with a properly installed number plate. Always normally have the screw heads showing

Hello what car u recomand to buy used car for 23000 pounds Mercedes eqc, glc , audi witch model electric normal how u think or bmw SUV witch oane its good for family and full options witch model u recomand to buy can u lefet messaje for check because this weak I buy car thank u

There is a reason why if you have a camera man they always focus manually. So in post nobody noticed the horrendous focus shifting?

It’s a nice machine the EQC. Don’t think I’d choose it ahead of the i-PACE though, were I to be able to afford that kind of EV!

De-Chrome one i wanna see!

Oh so they changed the displays and steering wheel position for left hand drive... But didn't swap the audio and ride mode wheel besides the touch pad? So now the passenger can pick riding mode and you have two volume controls 😂

Watching you drive was quite telling. You kept fidgeting with those paddles - (what on earth are they for?)- which made them look like they were sort of in the way of grabbing the wheel. And that you would knock them around when doing three point turns, for instance. Also, you kept having to put your right elbow up on the window sill in a semi uncomfortable position. Shouldn’t the arm rests be in a better position to relax while driving? Or the window sill be lower for that right arm? Me thinks this is a non addressed issue that many vehicles have. Also…. Please purchase a light for lighting these inside of these cars if you intend to make more of these videos.

It’s a stunner! One day!

Definitely is a nice vehicle

beautiful car!

Cardboard Elon + rain = Elon Mush 🌧

Did you also thank Mercedes for supplying the Mercedes e-Tron or should that be Audi ?????....Can't wait for the Tesla i-Pace !!!!

Ah yes.. the good old Mercedes etron :)

If all (Audi, i-Pace, Tesla and Merc) are comparable, which of them would you go for?

4:50 Comparing this review with others: When you want a well handling EQC 400, it has to be the AMG version. Otherwise you get vague steering and too soft a ride. 8:30 After some outdoor activity, like running, mountain-biking or even hill climbing in inclement weather, you could use them during the change of clothes. Are they sturdy enough as tie-downs, when a load is larger than the boot?

Yes de-chrome one. It would look insane

Great video and great looking car…I’d swap my M3P now and I love my Tesla. 😜 Well maybe 😜

another ice conversion, big tunnel running through the car (with fresh air i assume) and a pathetic depth of boot due to the batteries. Same interior as an A class which is one third of the price !

I like the eqc but there is one really ugly thing. Roll down the front windows and look at the car from the outside. The outer and inner door dont line up. Its like the inner door is for another car or something...

I love MB a lot but this car looks like a Renault, which is offputting. Like the current A Class looks like a Focus.

The only car to beat a Model 3 will be the Ioniq 5 and EV6, I hope you get them soon!

Nice but I prefer my Model 3. I also couldn’t deal with detailing those wheels! 🤣

Did he introduce the Audi as Mercedes e tron 😊

I'm always normally a fan of these videos but it seems that Marshalls have give him a rose tinted description or he hasn't done full research. I'm currently looking at used EQCs and the AMG line - which is £40/45k with reasonable mileage - has no memory seats, no sunroof and a basic soundsystem. An AMG Line premium starts at £50k. If you share a car with the wife like I do, non memory seats become an annoyance. Thats a big price tag for an electric GLC. Seems like a big thing not to highlight but I know hes not a Mercedes man so lets see what future reviews bring.

Arnold Clark has dozens of them with delivery mileage , £44K

Your incidental music is mixed too loud, my ears...

These are about £25k now in 2024 .

Back seats don't recline? If my passengers can't get comfortable, I'm not comfortable.

I like this car but i think xc40 recharge volvo might be slightly better. Anyways is all around the same thing for this, the volvo and the audi

♥️♥️♥️

Suggest to Mercedes’ for the roof to be increased like the Tesla

Why don't you do a review on cheaper ev like a leaf or zoe not everyone can afford a tesla. Still love your video's.

You say the range starts at £65,000 but how much is the AMG you are showing? That’s a big miss with this video. I’m sure it’s considerably more than £65,000!

dem wheels

love you

I nearly got one of these instead of a Polestar 2 - I love the copper/bronze coloured air vents !

Steering wheel on the wrong side though

Did anyone else hear him say “Mercedes etron” at the beginning of the video.

I don’t like it’s based on GLC rather than designed from scratch - weird move especially it’s not called GLC e but new model name altogether - and it shows transmission tunnel in electric car for 60k ? A joke. Also no excuse not to enable car with faster charging capability. There should be a frunk for all the cables if they designed it better also. Tesla showed that cars this size can be very spacious, this car isn’t. Sweet spot for range would be around 300 miles - BMW is releasing i4 with that kind of range so not only Tesla can do it clearly. Everything else (apart from mentioned plastic) I really like and maybe when they address all that in mark II I will get it.

I do like a Mercedes etron

major problems in a serious frontal intact due cost cutting design thats typical of ice car design

Mercedes etron😳👍

Jeez, if you like buttons and touchpads, you'll like this Mercedes.

Ok so flaws No pillarless door window Needs bigger rims Needs full roof sunroof or two sunroof like the EQA And a bigger battery maybe 120kWh

8.29 - hang a brace of pheasants

wow that Model X looks freaking amazing. So sexy

Lucid has already blown this away just on range alone. "Mass market" in EVs is selling a thousand vehicles a week unless you're Tesla...and that means selling 1000 "clearly better than a Tesla vehicle" every week and this as with BMW is not even close. Long Lucid Motors, strong buy. Long Nio, strong buy. Volkswagen and Audi look like the best bet to try and at least post up against Tesla in Europe. I don't think anyone in Europe can "hang" with Tesla at the moment and in the least because of the holistic "Tesla experience" to include Supercharger Stations, Solar City, Solar Controller, PowerWall plus now Industrial applications hard at work in Australia and soon California plus distributed grid plus i think most importantly straight up retail (merchandise, food, service and support) on or about the Supercharger Network. Long $goev Canoo Strong buy

I considered buying the EQC 400, but it just lacks power compared to my GLC AMG 430 petrol. The EQC 400 0-62 is 5.1 seconds, compared to GLC AMG 430 petrol 4.9 seconds. And once you hit 110 mph the EQC 400 is finished... compared to the GLC AMG 430 which will keep picking up to 155 may be more.. To me the EQC is a downgrade, Mercedes need to up their game a bit more to entice me to buy electric.

What’s your favourite EV ?

What s the range of this car?

How can he speak about being in the car for hours when it’s only a 200 mile battery?

Three things...maybe four....1 I would never have another black car... 2 The price !! & 3 It just falls short somehow ....& finally 4 what the hell are you going to hang on a tailgate?

They’re to hang your jacket or coat! 🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤣

"Mercedes Etron" lmfao

Just too many buttons :))

It's a nice car certainly but yet again everyone is playing catch up to Tesla. It's hamstrung with a 200 mile battery.

Go figure, Rory form autotrader says the handling is awful on this one …

Front looks ugly. Rims are really good looking.

Great channel very informative but big ugly Mercedes sure to do well in the US

💋💋💋

Q4 seems better all in all - maybe you can do a comparison?

Hmm… laggy interface, small screen, no frunk, “augmented” directions that didn’t work and an interior that looks like a vodka bar… felt you were really stretching to be positive about this car just because it was loaned to you….
