The luxury automaker, Mercedes Benz, which is known for its impeccable vehicle offerings, has announced the pricing details of the all-new 2023 EQB SUV, as per a news story by CNET.

It would be the latest addition to the growing list of offerings in the aptly named EQ lineup of Benz, which houses its hybrid plugin and all-electric vehicles.

The newest vehicle in the electric series of Mercedes, the 2023 EQB, pleases the growing market of compact electric SUVs, which the Tesla Model Y currently undisputedly reigns.

The upcoming 2023 EQB comes with a total of four specs, sporting two trim and powertrain levels.

The luxury automaker unveiled that the starting price of the upcoming 2023 EQB electric SUV starts to the tune of $56,800, which already includes the destination charge that goes up to $1,050.

The base model of the EQB is the 300 4Matic Exclusive. It comes with a dual-motor all-wheel-drive system that pulls up to 225 horses, paired with 288 pound-feet of torque.

The entry-level spec is followed by the Pinnacle nameplate, which retails for heftier $59,350 pricing, justified by its panoramic roof, more sophisticated camera system, and premium audio system.

On the other hand, the other variant, the EQB 350 4Matic Exclusive, flaunts more power than the two other offerings, thanks to its dual-motor system that achieves up to 288 horsepower and up to 384 pound-feet of torque. But it comes with a more expensive price tag of $60,350.

The top of that line offering carries the 350 4Matic Pinnacle badge, and the most expensive pricing of all, selling for $61,400. It gets more power, as well as upgrades like a sunroof and premium audio.

CNET notes that both the EQB 300 4Matic and the 350 4Matic 2023 of Mercedes Benz are seeing the light of day in United States dealerships sometime this summer.
