Long time lurker but first time posting. Hoping I did good.
2024 EQB300 with AMG Line/Night + Winter + Moonroof
New (Not Loaner)
MSRP $64,555
Location: NorCal
Duration: 30 months
Miles: 10K
Monthly: $223 + tax = $242
DAS: $2200
Discounts: Not too sure exactly but I think there was Fed + Fleet + Preferred Employer (via work)
Other: Chose the MBZ Wallbox instead of charge credits.
I wasn’t able to put all the numbers from MBZ Financial into the Leasehackr calculator. It does show the $7500 as (Rebates and Noncash Credits). Other data points. Gross Cap Cost $40795/Cap Cost Reduction $8012.28/Adj Cap Cost $32,782.72/Residual $30,340.85
It’s a great EV as long as you don’t care about range. Coming from a Chevy Bolt EUV which was overly optimistic on range prediction so far the EQB seems conservative or accurate so we seem to be getting more than the EPA 205 miles
Re: range. Having had 2 EQSs I can attest that MB is fairly conservative on range estimates. A nice change coming from the joke estimates on my old Tesla.
Not sure if you’re going to instal the wallbox but there are much better chargers out there for about 400-500. You can easily sell it on eBay for 800ish further sweetening your deal
Did you get free electrify America charging for 2 years? I know they were going to pull that offer any day now.
Our EQB came with a Webasto charger, so we chose the $1000 charge credits. There are two DC charging stations near my home and their rates are cheaper than charging at home.
The EQB comes with that charger the guy above you posted but it is not as good as the wallbox (not as much power and its a dumb charger, doesn’t schedule with an app etc)
I think you will get more like 230-250 miles in real life. I have an EQB250 and i’m seeing close to 300 real life range with my use and i’m constantly using the pre-conditioning from the app to cool the car down a few times a day before I leave (without being plugged in), I constantly use A/C and do not drive for max range (I just drive however I feel like).
Pretty sure it’s not customer location specific. You would just need to negotiate remotely then pick it up. There were similar pre-negotiated deals for SoCal. I believe last day would be 6/30.
