AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)05/02 Report--

As the first electric model under the Mercedes-Benz brand, the EQC is also a new model under the domestic Beijing Mercedes-Benz. A few days ago, some netizens revealed that the Beijing Mercedes-Benz EQC completed the national first collision, although it was only a side collision, but its performance was still good.

According to this group of pictures revealed by netizens, the accident occurred in a Mercedes-Benz's first electric SUV, and the car was also a test drive, presumably encountered an accident during the test drive.

From the point of view of the collision, a white Volkswagen Sharon hit from the side of the Mercedes-Benz EQC, and according to the scene, the collision accident was relatively serious, in which the front of the Volkswagen Sharon showed a small collapse, so that the front cover was raised and deformed, as well as the front bumper was also bent, and the missing liquid from the ground could be guessed that the water tank and other accessories were also affected. At the same time, the airbag in the driver's seat was also exposed.

The side of Mercedes-Benz EQC also has a big impact, the door of the left driver's position is seriously bent, which directly leads to obvious deformation of the front wing and pedal, and the airbag pops up from the side, so it can be guessed that the collision speed of both sides at that time is not small.

Although the collision was relatively serious, there should be no casualties in terms of the safety of the two vehicles. However, from the on-site "measured" situation, the performance is not as good as that obtained by Beijing Mercedes-Benz GLCs in PICC research, it can be seen that Mercedes-Benz EQC doors are seriously deformed and protruding, but Mercedes-Benz GLCs do not appear, perhaps because the collision surface is different. Besides,

Although EQC is also owned by Beijing Mercedes-Benz, its overall performance is OK. In this regard, many netizens said that "B-pillar should be fine, if nothing happens, it is another PGGG model", "this quality is no worse than fuel cars." Of course, as sales of the models have been negligible since they were launched, some netizens said that "it is very strange to see them." After all, since its launch at the end of last year, EQC has sold only 589 vehicles, compared with 207,2 and 60 from January to March, in contrast to current Mercedes-Benz models.

In addition, for Mercedes-Benz EQC in Europe NCAP also won a five-star safety level. In the front 40% offset collision test, except for the front row occupants' legs, all the other parts got full marks, and finally got 7.8 points (out of 8 points). In the 100% frontal crash test, the chest protection of the rear occupants was slightly inadequate, which was evaluated as "marginal", while the rest was rated as "good".
