Mercedes-Benz Vision EQXX Concept Teased: How’s 1000+ km of Range Sound?From the moment electric cars started being discussed within the automotive trade, questions of range have followed. For many, it’s the heart of the matter. The one thing that counts. Fortunately, we no longer talk about the 150 km early models offered. Today, an EV with 400 km of range is almost average.
And even then, the demand is increasingly for more, and automakers are doing their best to oblige. Already, some models coming to market imminently (and others a little further on the horizon) promise 500 km, even 600 km. The maker of the recently launched Lucid Air promises it will deliver 830 km.
No problem, says Mercedes-Benz. It will serve up even more, at least in the case of the EQXX concept it plans to present at the Consumer Electronics Show set for Las Vegas early January 2022 – the 3rd of the month, to be precise.
The big number thrown out along with the first teaser images today is of course the range: 1000 km. To date, the best any Mercedes-Benz EV has done is the 563 km available from the EQS sedan. Note that the Vision EQXX concept is smaller than that EV.
