Mercedes-Benz VISION EQXX – high-tech concept car with a range of 1000 km

mercedes-benz.com

Mercedes-Benz has created the VISION EQXX electric sedan with which it takes mobility, performance and efficiency to a whole new level. It has a range of at least 1000 km on a single charge, superb aerodynamics and record low energy consumption, and an impressive 47,5-inch display in a recycled interior. This is definitely the best electric car in the history of Mercedes-Benz and a completely new word in the industry.

At the moment, Vision EQXX has the status of a concept car and it is impossible to buy it anywhere else. However, in the future it will become a production car and it will definitely be one of the greatest electric cars on the market.

The power reserve of the show car is 1000 km and allows you to comfortably cover the distance from Kyiv to Riga or from Paris to Berlin. Impressive potential, especially considering that the electric car is equipped with a fairly compact battery with a capacity of less than 100 kWh. And besides, the battery is very light: it is 30% lighter than the new Mercedes-Benz Vision EQS (read about it here ☛).

One of the main qualities of Vision EQXX is the minimum level of energy consumption: only 100 kWh is consumed per 10 km. Also, the concept sedan is equipped with a rather modest electric motor with a power of just over 200 hp. Carbon fiber is abundantly used in the design, so that the body itself turned out to be quite light: the car weighs 1750 kg, while its length is 4,63 meters and the wheelbase is 2,8 meters.

To power the climate control and the rest of the electrical equipment, a separate energy source is used – solar panels located on the roof of the electric vehicle. With them, the sedan can get an additional 25 km of electric range.

Another impressive quality of the Mercedes-Benz Vision EQXX is its aerodynamics. The drag coefficient reaches the reference value – only 0,17 Cx.

The interior of the concept car has comfortable separate seats for four people. An impressively large display with a diameter of 47,5 inches stretched almost the entire width of the front panel. The decoration used plastic recycled from diapers, as well as artificial leather obtained from mushrooms.

Ola Kallenius, Chairman of the Management Board of Daimler AG and Mercedes-Benz AG, stated the following:

“The Mercedes-Benz VISION EQXX is how we envision the future of electric vehicles. Just a year and a half ago, we started this project which has resulted in the most efficient Mercedes-Benz ever built – with an outstanding energy consumption of less than 10kWh per 100km. Its range is more than 1000 kilometers on a single charge using a battery that can even fit in a compact car. The VISION EQXX is an advanced vehicle in many dimensions that even looks amazing and futuristic. By doing so, he highlights where our entire company is heading: we will build the most desirable electric vehicles in the world.”

The Mercedes-Benz VISION EQXX is an exciting, inspiring yet realistic way forward for electric vehicle technology. In addition to pioneering energy efficiency, it offers meaningful answers to pressing questions. For example, the use of environmentally friendly materials significantly reduces the carbon footprint. Its user interface features a radical new one-piece display that comes to life with responsive real-time graphics and spans the entire width of the vehicle. Other UI/UX elements help the car and driver manage traffic effectively, and even use technology that mimics how the human brain works. And the software development process that led to this revolutionized the design of electric vehicles.

Breaking the rule book of automotive engineering, Mercedes-Benz has built a software-controlled electric vehicle that reimagined travel in the electric age. At the same time, it represents a highly progressive interpretation of the fundamental principles of modern luxury and the sensual purity of Mercedes-Benz. Instead of just increasing battery size, the cross-functional international team focused on maximizing performance over long distances. They went above and beyond in terms of transmission efficiency, energy density, aerodynamics and lightweight construction. The technology program behind the VISION EQXX will define and leverage future Mercedes-Benz models and features.
