Question: do you like the EQB? And if so, would you use all 7 seats?

Hmmm... either you have cargo or you have a 3rd row. I still would spring for the Model Y bro.

I can only buy a 7-seater car. This is my car because it is the only 7-seat EV so far (if i am not mistaken).

Thanks, I know & hate it not being able to consistently upload every week like I planned. I’ve been working on some other projects that needed much attention. Anyway, 2023 looks very promising, hope I’ll be uploading weekly again soon. Thanks for the support! 🙏🙏🙏

I really like your videos and i would be thankful if u could make a video of honda civic hybrid 😁

Cool Video, as always! It really looks like the perfect soccer mom car. I wouldnt choose the 7 seat option, because of the minimum space that is left when they are open.. otherwise a cool car, with lots of features

Interesting to see some changes already to my EQB which based on your license plate is only a couple months more recent. Looks like they finally are putting 2 USB-C's in the rear. Also mine has AR Navigation. Did see a g-meter in your model though, which must be because it's the AMG trim, I guess.

This is a car from Mercedes Belgium, so not sure how that works with the number plates. But the drive was recorded last year, just didn’t have the time to edit it. I often see variations on a theme :). Not only MB, lots of brands.

That 3rd row looks brutal.

Good suggestion! But no, not immediately, as I don't have a contact person at KIA yet :).

The car as you reviewed it costs around 75k, so unless you absolutely need those 7 seats there are way better EV options out there. And it also doesn't seem like a practical 7 seater since there is no more trunk space when you use all seats.

@johnnypovdrives

Жыл бұрын

That’s right, € 72.000 incl. VAT in Belgium. I agree, it’s a very niche target group, because if you always need 7 seats, you better get an EQV. The EQS SUV also comes as a 7-seater but that’s probably double the price. Or you could get a Tesla Model X.

The car for sure is way overpriced. However, I suspect it may be quite popular here in Belgium as a company car as it seems quite interesting in lease.

Savagegeese absolutely crucified this car, but I think it's fine. Could use fewer touch controls and screens though. Oh and the lighting is super tacky. Looks like a brothel.

Well I get it. I wasn’t very impressed with it either when Mercedes first announced it. But when driving and using it on a daily basis, I must admit it’s just a very decent & practical car. And luxurious too, I see those brothel lights as a good thing. ✌️😄

Savagegeese seem to hate on Mercedes anyway, though they did have some valid points. Charging speed may be an issue for long distance travelers, of which you have plenty in the US. For Belgium, this is a non-issue, I think. And about the lights, you don't have to choose red :).
