FAST FACTS

The base EQB 250+ is hard to recommend given its poky acceleration (especially for an EV) and lackluster DC charging speed.
Adding the third-row seat to the base EQB 250+ costs $1,250, which strikes us as quite reasonable. The problem remains the EQB 250+ itself — its acceleration and DC charging speed just aren't competitive.
Although the dual-motor EQB 300 4MATIC accelerates marginally quicker than the base single-motor EQB 250+, the latter gives you far more driving range, which is arguably the most important thing in an EV. We simply can't recommend the EQB 300 — its 205-mile range rating is not competitive in the market, and its acceleration is underwhelming too.
The third-row seat adds a reasonable $1,250 to the EQB 300's bottom line, but the acceleration and especially the range remain unreasonable for a current EV.
The top-of-the-line EQB 350 4MATIC is the only EQB that's class-competitive in terms of acceleration, or at least not too far off the pace. However, its amped-up dual motors draw from the same 70.5-kWh battery pack as the rest of the EQB models, so the range is abysmal by today's standards. Consider that the Hyundai Ioniq 5 N offers 14 more miles of range while more than doubling the EQB 350's power output — that's how far behind this Benz is.
The optional third seating row only tacks on $1,250, as is the case with the other EQB models. Problem is, you're stuck with barely 200 miles of range whether you get that seat or not.
