Hi everyone.

So I just purchased my first EV, namely an EQB300 coming from a BMW320d, and I am really struggling with the range on the Mercedes, I primarily use it on roads with speed limits of, 50/80/90kph. My last full battery charge got me roughly 230km. With the outside temperatures of somewhere between 7 - 10 degrees Celsius. With a few days of rain.

I very rarely use the brakes to regenerate as mush as possible and I don’t have a heavy foot, and I turn off the AC everytime I drive, and only use the heated seats

I would like to hear other owners experience with the range, because I really don’t find the low range usable, if this is a general problem with the model then I might swap it for something else.

Also am I just unlucky to have had a bad customer service at Mercedes dealerships, compared to BMW, I actually felt ignored when I had questions and I was at two different dealership with the same experience, I never had any experience like this with BMW.

Is the poor range to be expected?

    Little update.

    The last 62% has gotten me 158km with speeds at 50 - 90kph

    I have requested a battery check from Mercedes, my last charge only charged me 35% before stopping with no indication or message of any sort.
