I am looking for the one with the best overall value. Dont really care much between the 250 or the 300. This will be a daily driver, pick-up drop off kids.

TIA!

IMO, if a dealer is charging you $1,600 to ship a EQB, that’s going to destroy whatever upside you may have on negotiating the rest of the deal.

Agreed… thats what is bothering me. he shipping cost is not from the eals, its my estimate as the car is almost on the west coast. Shipping might be $!400, but not lower, from the quotes I have seen.

What are the payments and DAS?

Is there a difference in battery range for these? What’s the monthly prices?

6

These prices are with $500 for SC taxes

7

About 10 miles diff… negligible for my need

8

I think he was asking what is the monthly lease price for each? The msrp doesn’t really say anything about how a car can lease.

9

Yes that’s right… trying to figure out the best lease price I should pay for these

10

Goodness, look at the dealer charging hard on doc fees

11

Presuming you’ve already determined that these are both good deals…

If you have no preference, it will be the one with the lowest total lease cost.

12

Which is 250. Much lower payment.

13

Total cost is a better metric for making significant financial decisions, so that’s my default.

I know this flavor of reality doesn’t make it easier to sell cars. :slight_smile:

14

Mystery payments? :mage:

15

What’s the % off MSRP that you’re seeing in Marketplace and Share Deals & Tips ?

16

Hi all. Sorry I cause some confusion. Just to clarify
250vs 300: I meant that I did not care between EQB250 or EQB300. Not payments :slight_smile:
Discounts:: Both cars about 16.7% discount (including Fleet) + $7500
Payments: EQB250 at $489 and EQB300 at $520 for 3 year 36K with 10 MSDs and 0 down.
EQB 250: Includes Sight Sense (to read traffic signs), Heated Steering wheel and Multifunction steering (no one can tell me what is different between that and a regular steering wheel) and Drover Assistance Package
Both cars have the Exclusive and Advance Plus packages.
Offocurse, EQB250 is FWD and EQB300 is AWD.(4matic)
Is the EQB worth the extra $30-35/month?

17

Torque steer and wheel chirp get old really fast on a FWD car even on a ICEV. Can’t imagine how bad it would be on an EV which has instant torque.

Isn’t Aq fee $795? is it different for different regions?

Is your discount here (before incentives), 49945-47925, so roughly 4%, or is it 16.6% ?

19

Did you figure it out as I started to look into this car too. A lot of demo models for 45k range

20

If you have Amex or PenFed get the $2500 discount on top of the $7500
Aim for at least 10% (if not 15%) off MSRP before the 10k. many dealers are mixing the $2500 into their numbers.
