By applying all the technology possible to make the most of the energy available, Mercedes-Benz has made an unexpectedly fun-to-drive concept car.
If you follow Formula E—or any kind of motor racing, really—you know that behind the drivers, teams, and cars that win the races, telemetry is what drives everything.
Yes, this is the futuristic Vision EQXX, the most efficient car Mercedes-Benz has ever built. It covered Vision EQXX project manager Malte Sievers notes that this is the only rear-wheel-drive EQB because it had to match the EQXX’s layout. Single-motor production versions of the EQB are front-wheel drive.In the EQB, Mercedes engineers can stretch the range of the vehicle to more than 700 km of range with the ~100-kwh battery pack. Sievers says that figure emphasizes the point that just having the best possible electric drivetrain isn’t enough.
Driving the EQXX didn’t require learning a new interface; the switchgear and shifter stalk are in about the same places as in the EQB, while the haptic controls in the steering-wheel hub are merely a simplified new generation of the current layout. Little much else whirred underneath, either. The cabin is kept cool with a modern climate system driven partly from a 12-volt system that’s fed mostly by a rooftop solar panel. A “cooling on demand” approach down below funnels air past the air-cooled battery pack only when necessary, while a liquid-cooling system manages only the power electronics and motor.
