Change of Heart: The Mercedes-Benz EQB 350

The Mercedes-Benz all-electric, all-wheel-drive compact SUV gets even better

- Afzal Rawuther

Late last year, when I drove the EQB, it came across as an SUV that served a very practical purpose in Mercedes-Benz' India lineup. Aimed squarely at people looking for that added practicality from their luxury SUV, the EQB 300 made a whole lot of sense considering how closely it was priced to its ICE counterpart, the GLB. We were impressed with the interior appointments, the ride quality and mostly how versatile it was. Sure, the last row is best reserved for kids, but the fact that it exists, especially in an SUV this compact, would surely interest buyers.
