VISION EQXX: Efficiency, Style, Power

Bnn The People's Network stated that the VISION EQXX was not your typical electric car. Efficiency was redefined by it. It can travel over 1,000 kilometers and use less than 10 kWh every 100 km with a single charge.

Its design included a lightweight bionic construction, a drag coefficient of 0.17 that led the world, and a software-driven user interface and experience. As a result, it broke new ground in the field of electric car technology and expanded the definition of digital luxury with its cutting-edge game engine-powered user interface graphics.

The VISION EQXX recently broke its own efficiency record.

According to a ZAWYA's report, Mercedes-Benz's VISION EQXX is a very creative interpretation of Sensual Purity and contemporary elegance for the digital and environmental era. With a real-world electric range of over 1,000 km on a single charge and an energy consumption of less than 10 kWh/100 km, the VISION EQXX is a standard for future efficiency.

Aside from its 0.17 drag coefficient, lightweight bionic design, and powertrain technological advancements, it also represents a revolutionary shift towards a software-driven user interface/user experience. The use of a game engine elevates the UI graphics. Thus, showcasing the potential of real-time graphics in creating new digital experiences that respond immediately to the driver's requirements and integrate the real world inside the vehicle.

By setting a new standard in electric efficiency, the VISION EQXX recently surpassed its own efficiency benchmark, achieving 8.3 kWh/100 km during a 1,202 km journey from Stuttgart (Germany) to Silverstone (UK) on a single battery charge.
