The Electric Vehicle (EV) sector is all the rage these days, with some exciting new prospects lined-up to make their global debut within the next few months. Some new on-road passenger cars and a few vehicles in the SUV and truck segments like the Hummer are also poised to make waves in the market.
One of these heavy hitters is the new Mercedes-Benz EQC 4×4 Squared.
The EQC is Mercedes-Benz’s first fully-electric crossover SUV that will be launched for the masses next year. It is one of the most highly anticipated vehicles in the international market and promises to feature the most modern tech ever installed in an EV.
Although the standard EQC is a graceful-looking crossover SUV, Mercedes-Benz has added a little dash of off-road madness to the original and has teased the 4×4 Squared concept of the vehicle to the enthusiasts.

The EQC concept reportedly stands even higher off the ground than a standard Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon, which is a staple in the off-road SUV segment. It has a better approach and departure angles, a roof rack, fender flares, and a tow hitch, which further emphasizes that it is a proper off-roader.
Furthermore, the EQC 4×4 Squared concept is based on an all-wheel-drive EQC400, which means that it generates 402 horsepower from its two electric motors. The vehicle is also fitted with portal axles. These portal axles enable the wheels of the vehicle to sit below the center of the axle. further enhancing its off-road capabilities.

However, with this concept, Mercedes-Benz has offered an interesting insight into its ability to create a powerful, imposing, hyper-capable, fun, and environmentally friendly SUV that can be everything to everyone.
