The 2025 Mercedes-Benz EQB electric SUV remains mostly unchanged, retaining its position as the entry-level EV in Mercedes’s U.S. lineup and the only one sharing a platform with an internal-combustion vehicle.
The EQB is an electric version of the Mercedes-Benz GLB-Class, featuring smoother styling details that improve the GLB’s coefficient of drag to 0.28 while maintaining similar packaging. The 2025 model introduces a new Exclusive grade with upgraded features such as a surround-view camera system, Burmester surround sound with Dolby Atmos, and heated front seats.
A new Design Package offers different exterior and interior styling cues, along with the option of Manufaktur Mountain Grey Magno paint. Customers can also choose from new 18- and 20-inch wheel options.

The powertrain options include a single motor delivering 188 hp and 284 lb-ft of torque to the front wheels in the EQB 250+, as well as dual-motor all-wheel drive in the EQB 300 4Matic and EQB 350 4Matic. The AWD models feature permanent-magnet motors in the front and induction in the back. The EQB 350 4Matic offers 288 hp and 384 lb-ft, while the EQB 300 4Matic is limited to 225 hp and 288 lb-ft.
All versions are equipped with a 70.5-kWh battery pack, providing an EPA range of 251 miles in the EQB 250+. This range decreases to 205 miles for the EQB 300 4Matic but increases slightly to 207 miles for the EQB 350 4Matic.
Introduced in 2022, the EQB received a refresh in 2024 that included Plug & Charge compatibility, allowing for automatic billing after plugging in.

With a peak 100-kW DC fast-charge rate, the battery allows for a 10-80% charge in 31 minutes. The 9.6-kW onboard charger in U.S. models enables a full overnight charge with a common Level 2 setup.
Pricing remains consistent, with the base 2025 Mercedes-Benz EQB 250+ starting at $54,200 including destination. The EQB 300 4Matic and EQB 350 4Matic are priced at $58,150 and $61,800, respectively.
The EQB is expected to be replaced by a new model based on the Mercedes Modular Architecture (MMA) in the near future. This new model could offer both all-electric and mild-hybrid powertrains as Mercedes transitions away from dedicated electric models.
