This is Hyundai Kona Electric Vs Mercedes Benz EQA comparison for 2022. Electric and Hybrid\u00a0 SUVs are the next battlefield for customers and they are difficult to compare directly, at least for the time being. So we considered our own transition to electric or battery powered cars and SUVs to write about. Buying a new or used vehicle is often not a completely logical purchase where 1 or 2 features of even the sale person can change your mind. With that in mind we are comparing the Kona to the EQA because they are similar in price and size.<\/p>\n

Hyundai Kona Electric Vs Mercedes Benz EQA exterior comparison: The Kona is a cheap and arguably awkward looking SUV. In comparison the EQA while is the cheapest electric vehicle from Mercedes looks like the cheapest Mercedes electric SUV. It’s not in the same league as the C class for a premium exterior look. Nonetheless it looks better than the Kona.<\/p>\n

Hyundai Kona Electric Vs Mercedes Benz EQA interior comparison: While the Kona has a relatively nice a interior it is basic and cheap compared to the EQA. That’s the problem with basing an electric SUV on and existing model that is primarily designed to be cheapish transportation. The EQA is $7000 more than the Kona but it shows where the extra money has gone and that the Hyundai Kona is quite a budget interior even if it didn’t cost $70000.<\/p>\n

Hyundai Kona Electric Vs Mercedes Benz EQA engine and technology comparison: In base trim the electric systems are pretty much equal in terms of power and range which is a good start. However the level of standard safety systems and gadgets in the EQA really make the Kona look way over priced.<\/p>\n

Hyundai Kona Electric Vs Mercedes Benz EQA drive report and Street Cred : No question a Mercedes Benz badge still has some cred in the driveway although not as high end as it used to be.<\/p>\n

The conclusion and winner of the Hyundai Kona Electric Vs Mercedes Benz EQA comparison is the Mercedes Benz EQA. We didn’t think it would be so easy to reach a definitive decision on which electric small SUV to buy. The Mercedes EQA has the exterior, interior quality and features beyond the price difference of about $7000. Yes – the Hyundai Kona is overpriced in every way.<\/p>\n
