Thanks Bjorn for doing this video, I’m in Australia and want to buy the eqa350 soon, and I’ve searched all over the internet for a review of the car, and your video is first I’ve found in English.. so it was great to watch it …awesome !!!
Easily the best car review channel on TH-cam
I never had any problems with my EQA 250 eighter in the winter. And i live in Sweden.
Love Mercedes 💖
Mercedes sux. They are using 10+ years old tech. Not competitive at all.
@@Poxenium what 10 year old tech are they using?
I like this comment on the chargeport cover 19:20, "it´s better than the flimsy buttpluggs on other cars". 😂
Nice video, great work.😊
Dont forget that the Mercedes Me Rfdi lets you charge at almost all stations. A Big Plus for Mercedes.
Good video, thx! And nice results, EQA seems very promising car for winter too.
Blue sky video was very beautiful. Not tropical but still very nice with lots of soft colours.
Thanks for the video as always!
14:45 About the flir cam, I'm a little bit OCD. You can set the camera connector, so that the cam is flush to your phone. The connection will be way more sturdier, lateral forces will be less heavy on the connector.
For a project I had to do for school. I had tested the influence of the temperature of the battery to the voltage of the battery. When a lithium battery get hot the voltage get's higher and when de battery was colder the battery voltage dropt. I tested between -20 an 50 °C. I think the diffrence between the 2 was about 0.15V.
So. a car that got 100 of cells in series, that would mean a 15V drop in the voltage
Love the music you put in the video and keep up the hard work my dude. (Form the U.S.A.)
Thanks! Great job! I have a Fisker Ocean reserved. It will be fun to see you test one once out.
Thanks Björn, very good video. Looking forward to EQB test. EQA is to small for my needs.
Hi Bjorn. Nice video as usual. Just saw an another TH-cam video of EQS AWD consuming 24kwh/100km average at 5 degrees with 21 inch winter tyres with all the heating activated covering Munich to Frankfurt stretch(roughly about 420kms)driven at 140kmh(average 114kmh). It would be great to see you testing EQS RWD during the summer at least without the fat tyres probably.
This looks like a very good EV - big enough and well equipped. Though having checked the price enthusiasm has cooled.
And ... ask your sponsor Stormberg to make online UK orders nice and easy! I'm sure there'd be plenty of UK business for their cool Scandi stuff. We now have a UK-Norway trade agreement (probably one of the biggest since you know what).
My turn to be laid up with Covid so catching up on a few. Nice one, great info 👏🏼
Cool music too! 👍🏻
Loving the content Bjorn🙏🏻👊🏻
Tail wiggle is not only because of torque distribution, it is also affected a lot by wheel alignment and general suspension setup.
A tip would bee to put some black electrical tape over the reflective surfaces when you measure with the Flir as @22.20. You will get more real value from your mesurements.
I just love your videos👍😎
My EQA250 just hit 50.000km a week ago(on 7 month). My experience is when you set the navigation in the car to go to a charger you get 113kw but if not I get about 104kw. I use ABRP instead of the built in, since the built in is to locked regarding stalls.. I want to choose my providers and not let mb lock it!! That is why I use ABRP.. Too many times have I arrived at bad stalls that either couldn’t charge or was broken..
In Finland Tesla heats battery to 3rd party chargers. You can find Virta chargers in Tesla map and heat the battery.
you can now preheat Tesla under 20% too
The Hyundai Ioniq 5 is really the first EV i truly have lusted after. The design and everything I have seen from the reviews of this unicorn just make me want it more. Last time this happened was during the showing of the 2011 (Lancia) Stratos concept..!!!
29:18 always stick to 300kw chargers so if you share you get 150 anyway xD. I love that Deutschland has the best charging infrastructure now in terms of HPC
I hope Audi updates the Q4 with preheating the batteries. When charging in the cold i never get more than 25-40 kw even though it should get 125
The button for the heated steering wheel is on the left side of the steering wheel column (underneath the blinker stock). Of course only if this car is equipped with it (which I would guess by the rest of the available features)
I don't think it is because when you equip the heated steering wheel, you get the steering wheel with the black control panels automatically. Seeing as this one has the silver ones...
@@NicoSchurr Yes, probably... I thought they changed it and you could also get the heating with the "AMGish" steering wheel, but that probably was in a different line (maybe C or E class)
Did you test EQB?
Have a little test trip yesterday with Mercedes EQB.
15:05 The MG Marvel R can simultaneously run the heater and the ventilation for the seats too.
Excellent video, and entertaining as ever. EQA 350 4matic ticks a lot of boxes, comfy, efficient enough, and from a dashboard ergonomics point of view seems truly excellent with really intuitive controls and knobs that can be operated eyes off using tactile feel. Love the distronics ACC and the smart AWD modes. Every control at your finger tips exactly where you expect them to be instead of the new fettish for giant iPads off the drivers eye line. The regan paddles for the regen braking are also really user friendly. Mute button on the steering wheel - yea!!! Considered Model Y but could not stomach the lack of physical controls, nor the styling, so ID4 GTX was high on our list, but delays and those daft haptic controls. Audi limited to soviet black interiors dull as ditch water and not great efficiency. Ioniq5 was high on our list but could not get light colour with light grey interior. IQ5 has great driver aids, But with EQA we can order the colour we prefer with the upholstery colour we prefer. Like for smaller wheels for better ride comfort. EQA reeks of superior cabin ergonomics and better driver aids, all intuitively controllable with out touch screen or haptic nonsense.
Steering wheel heater is on the left side of the steering wheel on a small stick, if the car has it. That’s there it’s places on the EQC.
You only can have steeringwheel heater with amg packade if you have edition one special model :(
@@santerix nah it's different for each country, my EQA300 Electric Art should be delivered this month with heated steering wheel
Are we getting any Xpeng/BYD/NIO test in this beautiful weather?
A towing test would be nice to see. With a trailer or caravan around 1400kg - 1500kg.
Oh, you noticed that too, with the tail-happy Model 3 on slippery roads? I can confirm that.
Can you tell me what heat camera you are using? Is it the FLIR One Pro?
Could the regen be GPS related (a curve -> AWD). Maybe a test on a parking lot ?
Good to see you back in your "natural environment"!!
Hi Bjorn, When we will see the EQB?
I think the reason the car won't get tail happy is because the rear motor is so low powered (which I think you said in a previous video) and the front motor is programmed to kick in before the rear motor is at full power. May very well be different on wet ice.
Probably same with regen. Also, the Germans know you should have front bias under braking
Hi hope your well doing a great job now I got the odb LX and installed this as you mentioned and I have a few things I would like to ask your opinion please I have 2021 Long range Model 3 UK with 74.5 pack now this car I got in August 2021 and only driven 2,300 km and it’s showing in scan my Tesla nominal full pack 72.6 with 3.3 buffer is that correct and for such new car hardly driven ??
29:52 You actually pronounced that correct, soon your german ist perfect. 😄
Hi Björn.
I have not seen any test of MG Marvel R .....When are you going to test it ? Keep on the good work.
Conny /Sweden
Love the video!
I own a 2021 Tesla M3LR and I must say that some of the latest OTA made the car much better in winter driving. When looking at Scan my Tesla the front motor is always active during slippy conditions! Would be interesting if you tried a M3LR and feel the same! Feels like you say, automated "snow mode". I have sooo much more confidence in the car now compared to before!
that charger while you were pointing camera at it, did some weird stuff regarding chademo plug! It was with some warning and then it suddenly disappeared?
Finaly you drive on the right side;-)
No, the right side is the wrong side 😉
Song @ the beginning? Very very cool...
Hi Bjorn if EV take off in Thailand and the big manufacturers start selling in Thailand, would you consider moving over , could you cope with the summer temperature, or come back to Norway for a summer Holidays.
Oh I4!!! I was thinking should I trade in my ML Mercedes for it?
Test the 7 seater GLB fast, please 😁
i hear SHMUTZ i press like! :))
*Schmutz
@@bjornnyland my apologies, the C is silent :)) keep up the great work!
Sounds like Doom music 🤘🤪
Slightly strange music choice for this type of content imo, but I like your vids anyway Björn🙏
entry lvl mercedes, that got me with its 70k€ in germany :D
That section of video between 2:05 and 3:55 was rad. Nice to have some spicy music montages!
whats the song that starts at 2:04?
0:05 and Bjørn
If do like the EQA ,still can't afford one 😭 do like the fact it calculates the range using Trip navigation data. Strange no heated steering wheel bet it's an option., Not a fan of the chrome vents in the cabin.
It's a German car. You're lucky you get seats as standard.
On q4 you have to pay extra for keyless entry and standard cruise control. Who would buy a car without those things? And yes, heated steering wheel is also extra.
Share the intro song? 😍
is it this car like ff fossil car?
You can make the point that kWh/h is a right unit for consumption, while kW is a unit for power.
So lightyears/year is the unit for speed? lol
@@bjornnyland Yes it is a unit for speed. distance/time
@@felixklusener5530 He is pointing at that that there is no such thing like kwh/h. It is just kwh. It is like saying kilowatt hours hours...
@@ivanvarcek2814 I know what Bjørn is pointing at, but his example isn't good. Lightyear is a unit for distance and year is a unit for time, so lightyears/year is a unit for speed. You can't just name the speed unit 'light', because lightyear is not equivalent to light x year.
@@ivanvarcek2814kwh/h is a rate of consumption and consumption is not a standardized measurement. Of couse the consumption at any given point in time is power. However, you'll be shocked how many people don't understand that pulling 1kW power one hour long will result in 1kWh
interrupted charging is almost as inexcusable as unsafe lane keep assist failure mode
Good morning for my side sound it is not for my. Please 👍 Best regards Kay
Quite affordable, well equipped, very good long range and winter car for the price
geilo in german would be awesome :D
Why does it creep? No way to one pedal drive.
conclusion are a bit arrogant: it s not testla thAt discovered that awd brake better with just motor under snow. it exist since awd exist …
(kWh/h) these unit make me laughing. 🤣
Bjorn Mercedes do not make a car with a heated steering wheel! They told my wife to wear gloves
I’m patiently waiting for my 300 premium 4matic. I see in the one your driving has electric seats. The guy I spoke to in the merc garage says you can’t get electric operated seats. Does anyone who owns one confirm for me…
I just ordered my EQA 300 today, including electric seats for driver and passenger, both with memory.
@@leifhenriksen5449 what country are you in, it’s maybe different spec. Apparently in the uk the 300 premium plus which has electric seats has been discontinued.☹️
I am in Norway, @@rudeboysccmanifesto3331. If it could be of any help, the option code is 275 for driver's seat and 242 for passenger's seat. The two of them add around the equivalent of GBP 500 here.
@@leifhenriksen5449 thank you for that. Appreciate it
OK, thanks for making me think of buttplugs every time I'll charge my car from now on... :P
👍🚙
The name of that town in the test destination may be funny in German, it's rather vulgar in Dutch - the fun
What does it mean in Dutch if you don’t mind tell me? 🤣
The EQA 350, a car with A-class quality, with 19 inch wheels and Advanced-Plus-Paket (would have analog dials, no phone charger, no backup camera, no keyless go, etc. without) costs the same as a Model Y, a much larger car, in Germany.
For that price you are still missing:
- front seat heaters: 345€
- seat ventilation: 1060€
- leather 1535€ (includes front heaters)
- heated steering wheel 190€
- radar cruise (no lane-keep!!) 1440€
- park assist + 360 cam 488€
- alarm (no video recording) 760€
- etc. etc.
What the...?
Well if you want seat ventilation, leather, a 360-camera, etc. the Model Y isn’t really an option. I guess it is a question of what you want. I’d happily treat 0.5 seconds of acceleration of my Model 3 for every one of these options.
@@christianurban So the EQA is 15-20,000€ overpriced because of the slightly better customization options?
Is that your point?
@@NO3V go drive a Model S and an EQS. You will understand the difference.
@@NO3V I don’t choose cars based on their list price. Monthly rates are what matter.
And what I meant is, that your complaining about the price of extras which aren’t even offered on the Model Y. Less options lead to less complexity, which make the car cheaper.
If those options are important to you, you might want to choose that car if you get a good deal. Everybody has a different taste.
I drive a Model 3 myself and still think it sucks that they don’t even offer a 360-degree-parking-camera for that price or at least as an upgrade.
@@muffinb5446 hehe. Have you been in A-Class, GLA/GLC or even a C-Class recently?
If Mercedes makes EQS and S Classes so they must all be great is your point than the marketing works..
When Thailand becomes more efficient on EV stations 200-350 km EVs would be no problem also
"It feels as if it was constant winter mode". Indeed it does! But I am sorry to cause you a disappointment. The Mercedes engineers did not need to watch your (superb!) videos to arrive at this conclusion. It's just that EQx 4Matic is programmed with the traditional feel of ICE Mercedes 4Matic. On my test drive of EQA 4Matic I was surprised by how well they programmed the traditional 4Matic feel in it. If you have ever driven E-class 4Matic, you will feel home in EQA.
Mercedes 4Matic is like an English butler. Always present, always at your service, always perfectly correct. And without any sense of humour whatsoever. Fun & games with lift-off oversteer and powerslides are somewhere else. 4Matic does not shout out loud, but it conveys a clear message "Ordnung muss sein!".
You should say Well done Elon, instead of Well done Mercedes 😀 Great vid tho 👏 as usual
What a nightmare…plug in your charger and run inside to a restaurant for half and hour, then return to your car to see it’s been stopped charging for most of the time and you still need to recharge!
...or check the mobile app
"geilo"? :-D
Sooooo expensive.
24 kWh consumption with an average speed of 79 kmh ? What the frick is up with Mercedes, that is far too high imo.
Compareble EV´s for example BMW IX3 uses far less power.
Headwind and uphill...
Its my first winter with an EV and luckily no below below zero degrees until now. Maybe i underrastimate the consumption , im sorry.
Ah ah ah make me laughs that a consumption is in kWh/h!!!!! The engineers are coming from the fossils car!!!! LOL
