In the field of new energy, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi and other brands are known as "miscellaneous", taking Mercedes-Benz as an example, in the past, fuel vehicles with brand endorsement, can be described as invincible, but in the field of new energy, although there are quite a lot of models launched, and there are many pure electric platform products, but without exception are sold very generally, the most sold Mercedes-Benz EQE SUV, with the support of big discounts, has just reached the level of monthly sales of 1000 units, which shows how difficult and how volatile it is in this field, I don't know if the Mercedes-Benz EQG that Mercedes-Benz will launch next will change this status quo.
It is reported that the car will be listed in 2024, the car previously performed a wave of "G-Turn" at the 2024 CES exhibition, in terms of performance, there is no easy Sifang blessing to look up to U8 smooth, but combined with the current domestic hot square box shape and hard off-road market, this pure electric version of the Mercedes-Benz big G is still a little expected, and it will face opponents in the domestic market will include looking up U8, Mengshi 917 and tank 700 and other models, Although the U8 and Tank 700 are not the same in terms of powertrain, the former's price of more than one million and the latter's hard-core off-road positioning and performance will still form a certain competition with the EQG.
It can be seen that Mercedes-Benz actually has its own careful thinking, this EQG is almost a perfect replica of the appearance of the fuel version of the big G, and even the retro round headlights at the front of the car are directly copied over, the front of the car is square and tall, equipped with EQ family grille and large size can light up the logo in the grille, the engine compartment is retained, and the style of the middle bulge is also adopted, which can be described as an original hard-core off-road style.
The same is true for the design of the sides and positions of the body, with a square and straight roofline and window style, front and rear fenders that are convex and equipped with fixed pedals, and the sides provide prominent decorative lines.
The interior is basically a continuation of the classic interior design of the current "big G", equipped with a flat-bottomed three-spoke multi-function steering wheel, a large-size dual-screen screen, an air conditioning outlet fan style, an armrest in front of the co-pilot, a lot of physical buttons are retained in the center console, and the clock that strengthens the luxurious atmosphere still exists, and the interior still has a very high level in terms of color matching, material selection, etc., and there is no shortage of luxury. The three differential lock switches in the middle of the air conditioning vents have been retained, but the functions have been replaced with functions such as "tank turning" and "turning in place".
In terms of power, the pure electric G-class will be equipped with four-wheel independent motors, each motor drives one wheel, which can be driven separately, providing three kinetic energy ** modes, namely D+, D, D-, and supporting Eco, Comfort, Sport, Trail, Rock, Sand and Creeper (Creeper) multiple driving modes, chassis suspension, the new car will be equipped with independent suspension and a new rear axle structure, with two differentials in the front and rear, It is not expected to disappoint in off-road ability.
The EQG can charge from 10% to 80% in 30 minutes, and at the moment, the specific parameters are not yet **, referring to the EQS 580 SUV 4MATIC model, the EQG's quad-motor maximum power is expected to be between 609-679 horsepower. In terms of battery life, the new car will be equipped with a newly developed silicon anode battery, which will increase the energy density of the battery by 20%-40%, and according to overseas ** reports, the maximum range may be about 500 kilometers.
As a pure electric hard-core off-road model, because the battery is arranged on the chassis, the center of gravity of the vehicle is lower, but the curb weight will be increased. It will be less than 3,500 kilograms, about 1 ton heavier than the fuel G500, and in order to cope with possible off-road conditions, the Mercedes-Benz EQG will also use Kevlar fiber material to make a guard plate to protect the battery pack.
The first to be equipped with a U-turn in place or a circle in situ has been delivered, the powerful warrior 917 has also been delivered, and the tank 700 supplemented by fuel and electric drive has also come out, and the functions shown by Mercedes-Benz EQG are more or less equipped in these cars, relying solely on the popularity of "big G" and Mercedes-Benz's brand endorsement, it is estimated that it is still a little difficult to continue the myth of fuel "big G".
