The first Mercedes-Benz EV is deliberately free of revolutionary tendencies, but for many of its SUV customers it could be an introduction to a new world of motoring.The first Mercedes-Benz fully electric vehicle (EV) to be sold in Australia has arrived. It's called the EQC and is targeted at the Jaguar I-Pace, Tesla Model X, and imminent Audi e-tron.

Pros
Quiet, wafting driving experience
Loaded with cabin tech
Outstanding safety credentials
Understated design a genuine point of difference

Cons
Moderate driving range
Back seats and boot nothing special
Front suspension can get crashy
Supply appears to be quite limited

Cons
Less cargo space than most rivals

Before the ungodly Trackhawk arrived last year, the SRT was the ultimate high-performance Jeep. While it received mild upgrades for 2018—including the Signature Leather Wrapped Interior package that added new carbon-fiber trim, black exterior badging, and 20-inch satin carbon wheels—there are no updates for 2019.

Pros
Extraordinary acceleration,
aggressive exterior styling,
more practical than the Dodge Charger and Challenger SRT models.

Cons
Poor fuel economy,
steep price for a Jeep,
overshadowed by the bonkers-mad Trackhawk version.
