The EQC will deliver premium electric practicality while giving drivers the same Mercedes-Benz luxury experience they are used to. What could be better than pure luxury coupled with being environmentally friendly? The release date is said to fall in the beginning of the 2020 calendar year.

The EQC will pull power from two electric motors. Output totals at 402 horsepower and 564 pound-feet of torque.
