this is the only electric 7 seater out there that is not a mini van. it's perfect. the 3rd row will be fine for children or a baby seat. I much rather drive this than a Yukon or navigator.
1:07 It's a tow loop - there should be somewhere in the front of the car, usually underneath the "grille", where you can screw it in straight to the chassis.
Anhängerkupplung is not available for the EQB According to Finnish Mercedes-Benz website. EQA and EQC can be equipped with the hitch. Maybe the full potential of the compact platform is used to the max in EQB. Bear in mind it's basically an A class Mercedes stretched to fit 7 persons + heavy batteries. So if you need a hitch, go for an EQA or an EQC. No 7-seater with tow hitch Mercedes available yet, unfortunately. Not even EQV can be fitted with the hitch.
Our old 535d from 2005 had an electrically movable steering wheel, it even moves to steering wheel fully in and up if you remove the seat belt so for easier ingress/egress.
I don't know about this feature. I always find the ideal position for myself and keep it like that. If the stearing wheel is in the way when exiting the car, it's an indicator that I need to loose some weight 😊. If you have any common sense you don't let your wife drive your car, you buy her another car.
Hi Björn, just to be correct: tesla did not invent electric adjustment of steering wheel. You could find that in upper class cars much earlier. I.e. in my old 2003 Jaguar XJ - she had also electric adjustment of the pedals!
I don't know if any of these SUV type cars have easy access 3rd row seating. I tried the humongous Tang and did not find that to be so much better. My impression was more that a small person would feel it's a bit cave like cos of the poor view. I could be mistaken on the last. Anyway my 13 yo was okay with both. I would not buy a car like this if I need 7 seats every day, but it's nice option to have and the space is good when it's not in use.
if you want a real 7 seater then you have to go with a huge car like a navigator or Yukon, those cars are ugly and feels like you are driving a tank. I much rather driver smaller SUVs like this. the 3rd row is fine for children
Model X is really expensive nowadays and deliveries are taking some time for the EU now. So now all these german alternatives are becoming a good thing. They are gonna sell it like hot cakes.
"plenty of height if you need it" LOL :D :D I love your comments, really funny. Keep doing these videos, there are excellent, helping people choosing the right EV for their preferences..
It’s gotta be considered a 5+2 - not a ‘true’ 7-seater - in it’s current size. Perhaps they should have stretched the EQB by about 9-12 inches, to create a much more useable 3rd row? It’s a shame I’m unable to consider it as an electric people carrier, as there’s quite a bit to like with EQB… especially more at entry level!
Similar to my petrol Outlander. OK for emergency children transport but I always worry about safety in an accident. To call these cars a 7 seater is a bit of a stretch bordering on deception. Rather like calling an upturned bath an air raid shelter, yes you could hide under it but not safe.
Can you please review Citroen ë-berlingo/Peugeot e-rifter/Opel combo-e-life, preferably in the 7-seater configuration? In France its MSRP starts below 45000 euros mark, which is eligible for the biggest gov't incentive (5k euros), but the somewhat lacking 50kWh battery might be a big hindrance...
Excellent interior space review. Its just to small. 3 row does not work. Why oh why not add 30cm???? Would have made the 3 row acceptable and added maybe 10-15cm for storage behind the 3rd row, which would have made a difference. Also No airbag for 3rd row which Volvo has. Sorry mercedes you messet up!
I remember the old GM Zafira 7 seater and how a buddy had a huge wad of compensation after a relatively minor shunt up the ass, he was in the 3rd row "boot seat" and had one of his legs guillotined. The leg space in these 7 seaters are awful, bring back the rear facing Scandi Seats that used to be in the volvos of the 90s.
From the owners manual: "The seats on the third row are approved only for people up to 168 cm in height. Observe the information regarding height on the information label."
That metal weapon is in the Tesla also, I have heard you ask twice about that … LOL. It screws in the front bumper, there should be a small cap in the front of the facia so that if you need to pull the car out of a situation. You make my day every video!!
Just assume the "what the heck is this thing" is a towing hook. Small rectangular plastic decklids in the front and the rear bumper where the towing hook can be screwed into.
”The rest of the world we use metric”, then goes on to use 1 Woman as the unit of measurement for the amount of available cargo space… 😂😂😂

He knows. It’s a running gag in which he tries to catch new viewers. He got ya. 😉
It's a inside joke. He does it with almost every car that comes with a loop.
what if we tell him the truth that it is a penisenlargement with comes standard with all german cars? 😁😂
@@notofinterest Why is it so small then? 😛
@@dingdong2103 cause they can’t handle bigger things anyway. Good enough for them to play on.

Soon the EQS SUV will be launched, which probably will have a trailer hitch.

A 1999 BMW 535i had one also.

Mercedes S-class is electric since the 80s
It would be good if the rear row of seats could be removed to give more room in the trunk?

The joke went right above your head ;)
R/whoosh
Can you fit some small stuff like shoppinf bags under the third row seats when they are in use?
The exact video I was looking for 😊 Thanks for uploading this!
Plz don't answer what that thing is 👈
The rear seat review I've been waiting for, even if used for babies and young kids .. even I saw the real car already too, diesel version.. too tight

3:56 You are so crazy 🤣
+1 for Kansas reference.
-Kansan
Can you remove the 3rd row altogether? Doubt I'd ever use it.
then go for EQA?
Visor test fail 🤦 Like the physical buttons though 👍

Exactly- remove the 3rd row and increase the legroom for the 2nd row. Make it more luxurious!
omg Bjørn, have you never used a tow hook are you a very lucky man 😂
I love ur reviews man,
We also don’t care for imperial measurements.
has nobody told Bjørn the the thing he keeps finding is a towing hook?
Has nobody told Max yet? 🤣
@@bjornnyland oh it's a joke?
Hehe, first time I seen this I was like.. huhh? He don't know, but I soon understood that this was a regular joke 🤣
@@frode_channel8774 ya he got me
it is a joke to trigger people to make comments
#two women 👌🏻this guy deserves millions of subscribers 👏🏻

How much boot space do you sacrifice when ordering the rear 2 seats?

volvo xc90 2015+ seems to be the only SUV I seen that I can accept as a 7seater. Rest either cheat on leg space or trunk space.

It's safe to say that the extra 2 seats are for kids.
There is nothing funnier then repeating the same joke over and over again 🙂

what?
Plenty of height. LOVE it

Come on, why would you wanna put an extra seats on a Honda Civic 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 it's. Full Electric compact suv ( more space than a Q4 Etron...similar price)
imma buy you aa 4k camera soon.
No need to. I already own 3 cameras that can shoot 4k.
You’ll need to buy me a 4K TV to watch on
Bjorn, I'd like to like give you permission to say like
Those 3rd row seats are so ridiculously tiny even little kids won't fit. What's the point?
All chinese / korean brands for this price would let you have ventilated seats in the front :/
And you would get that Chinese/Korean made cars with heated seats...
Shiiiiiiitttttt👍👍
That metal weapon is in the Tesla also, I have heard you ask twice about that … LOL. It screws in the front bumper, there should be a small cap in the front of the facia so that if you need to pull the car out of a situation.
You make my day every video!!
You know it is a joke, right ?
😂 no I did not, makes it even funnier
@@Reddylion it is designed for SIM card slot on very BIG phones 😂
Like orlando
I’ve red that you can’t spec the aheurduebsban (trailer hook).
Witch is bad.

Love the comedy value in this amateur review channel… Apart from that… woeful
