Overview
The EQA is closely related to the ICE-powered second generation Mercedes-Benz GLA,[8] which debuted in 2020.
The only version initially available is the EQA 250 (EQA 260 in China).[9] It has a 190 hp (142 kW) electric motor powering the front wheels.[4] Mercedes has announced a more powerful version, using two motors for all-wheel drive and putting out over 260 hp (194 kW).[10]
A longer-range version was also announced.[8] EQA 250+ was unveiled in March 2022 with a longer range (540 km WLTP), bigger battery (70.5 kwh), improved aerodynamics and a 140 kW permanent-magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) more efficient than the asynchronous motor of other versions.[2][3] In May 2022, EQA 250 range have been increased to 490 km WLTP, probably by using the same motor as the new EQA 250+.[11][12][13]
