Overview

• The EQB is no longer listed or configurable on Mercedes' German website, effectively ending local sales of the electric SUV launched in 2021.
• Mercedes is processing outstanding EQB orders at its Kecskemét plant in Hungary before retooling the factory for new models, according to the JesMB site.
• A successor is widely reported to arrive in early 2026 on the MMA platform with an 800‑volt system that targets faster DC charging and more than 600 km of range.
• EQB demand trailed rivals in Germany, with fewer than 3,800 registrations in the first half of 2025 versus more than 7,400 for BMW's iX1, and observers have labeled the model a flop.
• Dealers have criticized Mercedes' recent pricing strategy as overly aggressive, raising questions about how the replacement will be positioned in the market.
