    Have an issue that’s hard to shake.
    Did have a C63 and it was an absolute lemon. Had gearbox, rear diff, turbos, sunroof, drivers door, info screen and many more things replaced within first 2 years. We sold it in year 3……and I promised to never ever go back to merc - but this seems to be a good point of difference.
    Am ready for an EV and the EQ range looks the way to go…..

    Fooled me for a second there, got all excited when I read your description below the video, but the video is all EV review....
    "It's time! I filmed my first ever drive in sport+ and race mode in the 2022 Mercedes CLA45s. Feel the excitement with me and listen how the crazy the car is in race mode and of course the CLA45s Exhaust sounds." I think this is the description from your previous video copied and pasted into this one.

    We have a gorgeous GLC. Next car won't be merc. GLA, GLB, EQA etc are really bland, like 1970's Bedford van😮. Next car will be ipace. Beautiful and fast.❤

      Hey Paul, I agree I don't think I'd see myself ever owning one as my main car over petrol, I just love a combustion engine. I do respect the EVs are getting better as practical run arounds though. Think I'm leaning more to a GLB as a second family car. Simple and practical and much more affordable.

    Had one as a courtesy car from MB Newcastle, have to be say the 2 days I had it it did not impress me with regards to range and charging rates especially with the 3 pin charger, overnight it was charged 35%, you will have to plan your routes carefully as charging anxiety will Creep in, not for me diesel all the way with my new 350 glc, fuel station 5 minutes to fill and your on your way with at least 400 miles per tank, I was informed you will be lucky to get 160 miles realistically from eqa🧐🧐🧐🧐

      I have a EQC at the moment Merc have leant me, be lucky to get 200 miles not the 259 they advertise. And at a price of 77k for the one I’ve got I just can’t see the extra 30k over the GLC so I agree with you.
      But the charging comment, you wouldn’t use a 3pin plug in fairness if you owned one, on a proper charger it will do a full charge in 4-6 hours

      you can get 250+ miles from the base battery eqa, the 3 pin charger is basically useless just for situations where it’s absolutely necessary, 7kw charger at home charges fully overnight easily, i agree the fast charging infrastructure isn’t perfect but if you use instavolt, or shell chargers you don’t need an account and they both have contactless payment, they’re the most common id say, some of the other chargers are a chore to use and certainly a headache. once you know what you’re looking for the cars satnav let’s you pick from the nearest charge points so you can go to your desired charger, it’s a small learning curve but doesn’t take long to get used to
