Mercedes EQB

Starting at a touch under €69k! https://www.mercedes-benz.ie/passengercars/mercedes-benz-cars/models/eqb/suv-x243/explore.html

They look a bit "squashed" to my eye, but if you need a 7-seat MPV / EV .. it's that or the Model X right now (or the occasional old Model S with jump-seats).

I was looking at one in the dealer last week. Nice car, not really a 7 seat full size, more like 5 seats plus luggage or 5 adults + 2 kids seats.

It's probably between X1 and X3 in terms of size, rather than X5 or Q7

Brother in law just bought one, he's very happy with it. 7 seats and only the youngest of their 4 children fits in either of the 2 rear seats, but they aren't all 6 in the car all that often, so a good choice imho

Forget about it then. Only suited for small kids and when both are in use, there is barely any space for luggage left. Far less than there was in my Porsche Boxster 2 seater LOL

Unless they are dwarfs, 14 year olds will not fit comfortably or safely in the third row of an EQB, going by my 10s look into the back of one 😂

But you are right to try it for yourself. I might have assessed that wrong.

I don’t think anyone would be too safe in the 3rd row seating of an EQB if unfortunate enough to be rear ended. There is very little distance between the headrests and the glass in the tailgate.
