The Mercedes EQV will be updated. Mercedes has started the process of developing a major update for its 100% electric van. A facelift that will allow this generation to face the rest of the commercial life that lies ahead. The new EQV has been photographed for the first time in broad daylight.
Mercedes has got down to work to carry out the renovation process of one of its electric vans more relevant. The time has come for the Mercedes EQV to catch up. Underway is the development of a facelift. A mid-cycle update that will allow this generation, the first, to be able to face the rest of the commercial life that lies ahead.
The new Mercedes EQV 2024 has been hunted for the first time. A sighting that confirms the fact that the brand is already working on this project. At the moment the German manufacturer is in southern Europe carrying out the very important summer tests. Thanks to this, our spy photographers have been able to immortalize a prototype in broad daylight. Let’s go into detail.
Spy photos of the new Mercedes EQV 2024
Just take a quick look at the images that illustrate this article to discover that we are facing a “facelift”. As this is a mid-cycle tune-up, the aesthetic changes will be concentrated in the front and rear. That is why the camouflage only makes an appearance in these two parts of the exterior. A camouflage with which to try to avoid prying eyes.
The front, if we leave aside the hood, we can say that it is practically completely covered. The light groups will be renewed and both the grille and the bumper will receive a redesign to adapt to the new design philosophy that Mercedes is applying to all the models that make up the EQ family of electric vehicles. You can also see that the badge on the top of the front fenders has been covered up.
In the rear area there is also camouflage, although in less quantity. The rear lights are partially covered, which indicates that they will be updated. The middle and lower sections of the huge tailgate are covered up, so we have to prepare for possible changes. By the way, we can not ignore that the third brake light, integrated in the small roof spoiler, also has camouflage.
The autonomy of the new Mercedes EQV 2024
It is too early to venture changes in the propulsion system. However, it is something that we cannot rule out. Remember that, at present, the EQV is only available in EQV 250 and EQV 300 versions. The first with a 60 kWh battery and the second with a 100 kWh battery. In the best case, autonomy reaches 356 kilometers. It is not ruled out that Mercedes takes advantage of this update to make small adjustments to improve the efficiency and, therefore, the autonomy of its electric van.
When will it hit the market? Taking into account the type of update we are facing and the timeframes set, we should prepare to meet the new EQV sometime in the summer of 2023. In any case, it will arrive in dealerships as a 2024 model.
