Electric Mercedes Car Leasing

Why choose Mercedes?

Mercedes has more years of car-building history than most, and its reputation for quality, luxurious products is upheld today. Few manufacturers are as acclaimed or desirable in the premium car world, with its high-quality interiors standing out for all the right reasons, and these days they have the technology to go with it thanks to Mercedes’ top-tier MBUX infotainment system.

The Mercedes range is one of the most extensive around, with the firm offering an astonishing 43 different products, from the A-Class hatchback to high-end Maybach models and the brand’s highly-regarded AMG performance division, which has produced some stunning sports cars over the years. These days Mercedes is also offering a wide range of electric and hybrid models under its ‘EQ’ division with its EQS saloon boasting the longest range of any EV on the market.

So, if you value quality, craftsmanship and opulence, regardless of the sector you’re looking at, it’s worth looking at a Mercedes-Benz.

What is the warranty and breakdown cover like for Mercedes? What does it cover?

Of all the premium brands, Mercedes offers one of the most comprehensive warranties. New models are supplied with a three-year warranty, but unlike other companies, there is no cap on the mileage limit, making a Mercedes an ideal choice for drivers doing lots of miles. Providing the car hasn’t been modified, Mercedes will arrange for the repair and replacement of any parts necessary to get you on the road as quickly as possible.

The warranty is slightly different for plug-in hybrid (PHEVs) and electric models. For PHEVs, the battery is covered for up to six years or 62,500 miles, whichever comes sooner. For electric models, the EQC, EQV, EQA and EQB have a battery warranty lasting up to eight years or 100,000 miles, while the battery in the flagship EQE, EQS and EQS SUV are covered for up to 155,000 miles or 10 years. Again, whichever comes sooner.

As for roadside assistance, Mercedes come with three years of complimentary cover, supplied by the RAC, across the UK and Europe.

Mercedes also continues to lead the way when it comes to technology. Its cars have introduced many innovations over the years, and its cars continue to lead the way when it comes to the latest safety advancements.

When fitted to the EQE and EQS models, it truly propels the cabins up another level.

Quality runs throughout the Mercedes line-up too, from its more affordable cars like the A-Class through to the upmarket EQS and S-Class, you’re guaranteed an upmarket interior filled with the highest-quality materials, from the seats through to the dashboard trim and the digital displays as well.
