![]() That's easy to say about a concept car that may never even touch public roads, but the EQXX is no typical concept car. The goal was to create an electric vehicle that could travel as far as 620 miles on a single charge. ![]() The whole point of this concept can be distilled down to one word: efficiency. The Vision EQXX is a different story, though, and we had the rare opportunity to go for a ride in the one-of-a-kind EV on the French Riviera. Normally, we don't give much attention to concept cars because few are functioning vehicles and they're often mere suggestions for where a carmaker may be heading. Mercedes-Benz unveiled the Vision EQXX concept car virtually at the Consumer Electronics Show just this past January. ![]() The company even created the first electric vehicle in 1906, as well as features that we see in almost every car today (four-wheel independent suspension, safety crumple zones, antilock brakes, etc.).Īs we head into the most transformative period in automotive history, with electrification and self-driving vehicles on the horizon, Mercedes has given us an in-depth look at its interpretation of what's to come: the Vision EQXX. Few carmakers have been as historically innovative as Mercedes-Benz, which should surprise nobody since Carl Benz essentially created the first automobile in 1886.
