Overview
- A Mercedes spokesperson confirmed the EQB will not be offered in the U.S. or Canada after the 2025 model year.
- Reporting indicates a broader wind‑down by late 2025 with production prioritizing existing orders, though a global halt is not officially confirmed.
- Mercedes says it remains committed to electrification and plans two upcoming SUVs on the new architecture as part of a larger product push.
- U.S. EQB sales fell 36% last year to 8,885 units, underscoring limits of the older MFA platform such as roughly 100 kW DC fast charging.
- Reports suggest a redesigned GLB “with EQ Technology” could succeed the EQB in early 2026, potentially using the MMA platform and borrowing from the new CLA.
