Mercedes EQA: specs, engines, weight and versions

The Mercedes EQA is an electric compact SUV 5-doors. In this catalogue it is listed as 1 generation, in production from February 2021 with no end date given, plus a restyling from August 2023 that stays inside the same generation. All listed versions use Electro fuel, an Automatic gearbox with 1 speed, and a stated CO2 figure of 0.

The Mercedes EQA is an electric compact SUV 5-doors. In this catalogue it is listed as 1 generation, in production from February 2021 with no end date given, plus a restyling from August 2023 that stays inside the same generation. All listed versions use Electro fuel, an Automatic gearbox with 1 speed, and a stated CO2 figure of 0. Power in the data runs from 188 hp (EQA 250, EQA 250 Plus) to 292 hp (EQA 350, EQA350 AT). Every version is limited to 160 km/h. There is no Mercedes EQA AMG, no EQA 260, and no price in this dataset.

Mercedes EQA generations

1 generation (from 2021-02-01, still listed as current). Body: SUV 5-doors. Four versions: EQA 250, EQA 300, EQA 350 (all from February 2021) and EQA 250 Plus (from January 2022). Front-wheel versions are FWD; EQA 300 and EQA 350 are AWD. Wheel sizes on these four versions: 235/55 R18, 235/50 R19, 245/45 R20.

1 generation, restyling (from 2023-08-01, still listed as current). Same SUV 5-doors body, four versions with names as in the database: EQA300 AT, EQA250 AT, EQA350 AT, EQA250 Plus AT. Wheel sizes for the restyling are not measured. Kerb weight is lower than on the matching pre-restyle cars: EQA250 AT is 1965 kg versus 2040 kg on EQA 250 (75 kg less); EQA300 AT and EQA350 AT are 2030 kg versus 2105 kg on EQA 300 and EQA 350 (75 kg less); EQA250 Plus AT is 1980 kg versus 2040 kg on EQA 250 Plus (60 kg less).

This catalogue therefore covers one generation and one restyling, not a second generation.

Mercedes EQA specs and engine

There is no combustion displacement, cylinder count, cylinder layout, valves per cylinder, boost, engine position, or fuel-system type in the data. Those fields are not measured on every version. “Engine size” searches do not have a litre figure here: the power unit is labelled Electro. Horsepower, kilowatts and torque below are the measured outputs.

Mercedes EQA performance, 0-100 and mpg

City, highway and combined consumption are not measured on all eight versions, so there is no mpg figure in this catalogue. CO2 is 0 on all eight. Top speed is 160 km/h on all eight.

0–100 km/h:

Range is not in the data. Reliability, typical problems, engine-bay layout, coolant, engine cover, engine sound and engine-number location are not in the data.

Mercedes EQA dimensions, weight kg and wheels

Exterior length, width, height and wheelbase are not measured. Tank capacity is not measured (electric versions; no fuel tank figure). Ground clearance is not measured.

Which Mercedes EQA version to choose

If the brief is the entry FWD car from 2021: EQA 250188 hp, 375 Nm, 8.9 s, 2040 kg.

If the same power with a slightly quicker 0–100 from January 2022: EQA 250 Plus — still 188 hp and 375 Nm, 8.6 s, same 2040 / 2470 kg.

If the restyled FWD pair from August 2023: EQA250 AT (190 hp, 385 Nm, 1965 kg, 8.6 s) is the lightest Mercedes EQA in this list; EQA250 Plus AT is the same 190 hp / 385 Nm / 8.6 s at 1980 kg (15 kg heavier than EQA250 AT).

If AWD at 228 hp: EQA 300 (from 2021, 2105 kg, 7.7 s) or restyled EQA300 AT (2030 kg, same 228 hp, 390 Nm, 7.7 s).

If the strongest listed output: EQA 350292 hp, 390 Nm, 6.6 s, AWD, 2105 kg. The restyle counterpart EQA350 AT keeps 292 hp and AWD, raises torque to 520 Nm, cuts 0–100 to 6 s, and kerb weight to 2030 kg. That is the largest torque and the shortest 0–100 in the catalogue.

There is no AMG Line Premium, no EQA 260, and no price in these figures. Spec levels beyond the eight named versions are not measured.
