Mercedes-Benz India has introduced the EQB 350 4Matic electric SUV in India, starting at a price of Rs. 77.50 lakhs (ex-showroom). The new model replaces the previous EQB 300 4Matic, which debuted in December 2022 at a starting price of Rs. 74.50 lakhs (ex-showroom).

While the EQB 350 retains the same 66.5 kWh battery pack as its predecessor, it offers significant performance enhancements. The electric SUV now boasts 288bhp of power, compared to the previous 225bhp, and a torque output of 520Nm, up from 390Nm. Visually, the updated EQB 350 closely resembles its predecessor, with a few minor changes incorporated.

The updated Mercedes-Benz EQB 350 maintains a similar appearance to its predecessor, with no significant cosmetic alterations. However, Mercedes-Benz India has introduced a fresh set of 18-inch light-alloy wheels, specifically designed for improved aerodynamic efficiency. The vehicle retains its  black panel grille and features LED headlights with adaptive high-beam assist. The EQB 350 also includes LED tail lights with an accompanying LED strip, roof rails, and backlit turn indicators.

In terms of interior, the Mercedes-Benz EQB 350 maintains a similar design aesthetic, featuring a spacious center console housing two 10.25-inch displays for the dashboard and infotainment system. The infotainment system utilizes the MBUX system, which is a signature of the company. The cabin offers added luxurious touches such as rose gold accents, two-tone seats, a rearview camera, and a motorized tailgate. Enhanced comfort features include 64 customizable ambient lighting options, power-adjustable front seats, a wireless charging pad, multi-zone climate control, cruise control, and various other amenities.

Mercedes-Benz EQB 350 electric SUV is equipped with a 66.5kWh battery pack that powers a pair of electric motors. Combined, these motors deliver a peak torque of 520Nm and 288bhp of power. The EQB 350 4Matic version can achieve a top speed of 160km/h and accelerate from 0 to 100km/h in 6.2 seconds.

 Charging the battery from 10 percent to 80 percent using a 100kW DC charger takes approximately 32 minutes, while utilizing an 11kW wall box charger would require 6.25 hours. Despite the increase in power, the EQB's estimated driving range remains unchanged at 423km (WLTP).
