Van life just got EXTRA! | Mercedes VLE First Look

Описание: On a long-haul flight you’ve got two choices: turn right and fight for elbow room… or turn left and someone hands you a drink.
In this video we take a first look at the all-new electric Mercedes VLE, a luxury people carrier designed from the ground up as an EV using Mercedes’ brand-new VAN.EA platform. It replaces the old EQV and promises more range, faster charging, and a huge leap in luxury.
With a 115kWh battery, up to 397 miles (WLTP) of range, and 800-volt ultra-fast charging up to 315kW, this electric MPV is built for serious long-distance travel – whether you’re using it as a luxury family car, executive shuttle, or airport transfer.

In this video we cover:
✔ Exterior design and aerodynamics
✔ Battery, range and ultra-fast charging
✔ The Superscreen cockpit and tech features
✔ Rear seat luxury and entertainment system
✔ Performance and driving impressions
✔ Boot space and practicality
✔ Expected UK pricing and release date
Is the Mercedes VLE the ultimate electric luxury people carrier? Watch the full walkaround and let us know what you think.

And tell us in the comments: would you rather drive this… or be chauffeured in it?
