Mercedes-Benz EQV is the first electric van in the premium segment

A reasonable range, a maximum speed of 160 km / h and no compromises in terms of space arrangement in the cabin. Mercedes introduces the EQV, which is an electric van that looks quite promising on paper.

In Geneva, we got acquainted with the concept version, and now Mercedes is showing off the car, in the form in which it will soon hit the sales salons. It's time for another model in the EQ electric car line. This time we are talking about a large van, i.e. EQV. The car uses a ready-made Mercedes V-class design, so the technical characteristics and characteristics that the manufacturer boasts are particularly pleasing.

In terms of the diesel version, the passenger space has not changed. The range, of course, is less, but it is a reasonable (if it turns out to be achievable in practice) 405 km. The electric motor that drives the front axle generates 204 HP and 362 Nm. This allows you to accelerate to a maximum speed of 160 km / h, although it is probably better to stick to lower speeds so that the 90 kWh battery does not run out too quickly.
It is assumed that it will take 45 minutes to charge the batteries from 10 to 80% of their capacity, provided that we use the fastest charging source. The Mercedes EQV can be charged with a maximum power of up to 110 kW, and while driving, it recovers energy when it accelerates. The driver can decide the recovery intensity using the blades on the steering wheel. The mode of the strongest energy recovery practically eliminates the need to use the brake.http://fiatforum.lv/http://fiatforum.lv/
