How does it compare?
Mercedes EQT slides in with substantial elegance and modernity. However, how does it stack up against its electrified counterparts like the Nissan e-NV200, Citroën ë-Berlingo, and Peugeot e-Expert? Let’s break down the brass tacks—speed, range, power, charging time, and price.
Speed
The Mercedes EQT brings a respectable top speed of 134 km/h (83 mph). Comparatively, the Nissan e-NV200 manages a slightly lower 123 km/h (76 mph), making the Benz decidedly swifter on highway sprints. The Citroën ë-Berlingo clocks in at 130 km/h (81 mph), providing a close but not quite equal rival, while the Peugeot e-Expert impressively reaches 130 km/h (81 mph) too.
Range
With a range of 282 km (175 miles), the Mercedes EQT doesn’t necessarily dominate but certainly provides respectable distance. The Nissan e-NV200 lags behind with its 200 km (124 miles) range. The Citroën ë-Berlingo offers a slightly better 275 km (171 miles), and the Peugeot e-Expert matches closely at 300 km (186 miles).
Power
Pushing out 121 h.p., the Mercedes EQT shows solid oomph. Meanwhile, the Nissan e-NV200 trails at 109 h.p., making it the least powerful. The Citroën ë-Berlingo and Peugeot e-Expert each deliver 136 h.p., which allows them to show off a bit more muscle under the hood.
Charging Time
Charging the 45 kWh battery of the Mercedes EQT isn’t the speediest affair. Consider the Nissan e-NV200, which with a 40 kWh battery, gets up to 80% in about 40-60 minutes with rapid charging. The Citroën ë-Berlingo and Peugeot e-Expert, sporting their 50 kWh batteries, require around 30 minutes to reach an 80% charge.
Price
Priced at $52,350 (£45,440 / €50,000), the Mercedes EQT positions itself as a premium choice. The Nissan e-NV200 comes as the budget-friendly option at $45,000 (£38,000 / €42,000). The Citroën ë-Berlingo sits at an approximate $48,000 (£41,000 / €45,000), and the Peugeot e-Expert rounds up the list at $50,000 (£43,000 / €47,000).
Mercedes EQT takes the stage firmly with remarkable specs and a slightly higher price tag, justifying itself with Mercedes-Benz heritage and engineering prowess. Competition is close but distinctive, making each of these contenders viable choices in the electrified van arena.
