The Mercedes-Benz EQA is a five-seat, five-door electric SUV with a 70.5 kWh battery and up to 345 miles of WLTP range in its longest-legged form. It's aimed at drivers who want a compact, calm, properly premium EV rather than the fastest or the roomiest one.

The choice here is refreshingly simple. One body style, one battery, and three trims - Sport Executive, Urban Edition and AMG Line - with front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive depending on the version.

It sits below the larger electric Mercedes-Benz SUVs as the entry point to the brand's EV range, and it drives like it: quiet, unfussy and easy in town. If you want the wider line-up, browse all Mercedes-Benz lease deals.

About the Mercedes-Benz EQA

The EQA is a 4.46 m compact electric SUV with five seats, a 340-litre boot with the rear seats up and a three-year, unlimited-mileage manufacturer warranty. The current EQA has been on sale in this second-generation form since 2023.

Reviewers are consistent about what it does well: the cabin feels expensive, the twin-screen system is one of the easier ones to live with, and it's refined and relaxing at motorway speeds. Road testers are equally consistent about the trade-offs: rear legroom and boot depth suffer for it.

So it's a car for one or two adults up front, children or occasional adults behind, and a driver who values quietness over sharpness. Nobody buys it for the handling. Plenty of people buy it for the way it feels on a wet Tuesday commute.

Why lease a Mercedes-Benz EQA?

Because the standard specification is unusually complete, which matters on a lease: you're choosing a car for two to four years, not building one you'll keep forever. Every EQA gets heated front seats, built-in navigation, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a digital instrument cluster.

Safety and parking kit is standard across the range too - autonomous emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, self-steering parking assistance, a rear-view camera with front and rear sensors, automatic high beam and LED headlights. The EQA holds a five-star Euro NCAP rating, with 97% for adult occupant protection.

Practical touches run through the range as well: a hands-free tailgate, roof rails, privacy glass, climate control and rain-sensing wipers. Braked towing runs up to 1,800 kg on the strongest versions, and the boot opens out to 1,320 litres with the rear seats folded.

Which EQA powertrain is right for me?

There's only one: a 70.5 kWh battery-electric drivetrain with an automatic transmission, available with front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. No petrol, no diesel, no hybrid.

Electric

Power runs from 187 bhp to 225 bhp, with 0-62 mph in 7.7 to 8.6 seconds depending on version, and WLTP range of 273 to 345 miles. It needs charging - rapid charging peaks at 100 kW, giving 10-80% in 35 minutes on the best version, while a 11 kW home wallbox takes 7.3 hours for a full charge. New to EVs?

Which EQA trim should I choose?

Three trims, and the real differences are wheels, seats, keyless entry and styling rather than big jumps in technology - the core kit is shared.

Sport Executive

The entry version: 187 bhp, front-wheel drive, 18-inch Multi Spoke alloy wheels and artificial leather upholstery, with heated front seats, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a driver monitoring camera and a three-spoke multifunction sport steering wheel in ARTICO man-made leather. A powered tailgate, automatic parking assist and lane-keep assist are included; adaptive cruise control, rear cross-traffic alert, traffic sign recognition and a fixed towbar are options.

The Sport Executive is currently available from £791.98 a month.

Urban Edition

Also 187 bhp and front-wheel drive, the Urban Edition adds keyless entry and start plus front sports seats over the Sport Executive, and moves up to 20-inch AMG 10 Spoke alloy wheels. Upholstery stays artificial leather, and the same option list applies.

The Urban Edition is currently available from £837.94 a month. Against the Sport Executive, that is currently £45.96/mo more expensive.

AMG Line

The AMG Line is about appearance rather than added equipment - the standard kit matches the Urban Edition, on 19-inch AMG 10 Spoke alloys with artificial leather upholstery. Mechanically it's the one that changes most, though: the entry version here is 225 bhp with all-wheel drive, which is the better bet if you regularly drive in poor weather or tow.

The AMG Line is currently available from £858.14 a month. Against the Urban Edition, that is currently £20.21/mo more expensive.

Mercedes-Benz EQA FAQs

It works well for a family with younger children. There are five seats, a five-star Euro NCAP rating with 90% for child occupant protection, and standard blind-spot monitoring and parking sensors. Rear legroom is the limit - road testers consistently note that taller adults find the back seats tight.

340 litres with the rear seats up, rising to 1,320 litres with them folded. That's modest for a compact SUV and it's the most common criticism reviewers make of the car, so if you routinely carry buggies, dogs or golf clubs, measure before you order.

Between 273 and 345 miles on the WLTP test, depending on version - the front-wheel-drive cars on smaller wheels go furthest. Efficiency is quoted at 3.4 to 4.3 miles per kWh. Expect less in cold weather or at sustained motorway speed, as with any EV.

On a rapid charger the EQA accepts up to 100 kW, taking 10-80% in 35 minutes on the best version. At home on an 11 kW wallbox, a full 0-100% charge takes 7.3 hours - an overnight job. Our guide to charging an electric car explains the connector types.

Yes, braked towing is rated between 1,500 kg and 1,800 kg depending on version, with 750 kg unbraked. A fixed towbar is a factory option on all three trims, so it has to be specified when the car is ordered - it can't be added to the contract later.

Three years with unlimited mileage, which suits high-mileage lease drivers. The drive battery is covered separately for eight years or 100,000 miles, guaranteeing 70% of capacity. Servicing falls due every 12 months or 15,500 miles.

It depends entirely on what's available at the time - rentals move as stock and terms change, and the entry trim isn't automatically the lowest monthly figure. The Sport Executive is currently from £791.98 a month. Check the live EQA deals below for today's position, or ask our team.
