FAQ
Is the Mercedes-Benz EQA front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive
Both configurations exist. Entry variants use front-wheel drive. Higher trims offer dual-motor all-wheel drive.
What is the real-world range
Expect lower figures than WLTP ratings. Typical mixed driving range often lands between 350 km and 480 km depending on conditions.
How fast does it charge
On DC fast chargers, 10 to 80 percent charging often takes around 30 to 40 minutes under optimal conditions.
Is it suitable for long trips
Yes, with planning. Charging speed and battery size support intercity travel, though stops may be longer than some rivals.
