    'Officially' first B-Class ED buyer was in LA

    I think that would be Mission Viejo...

    2015 B Class?

    If they can't get it fixed by then (and the 2014s updated), they should close up shop and go home...

    Keyless-go option

    Have you looked in a typical woman's purse these days... Apparently not. In any event, until I can get QC and Range Package, it is a deal breaker for ME so irrelevant...

    range package

    I was told I would have to order one to get it, which would take two months...

    2015 B Class?

    If you are leasing, you probably don't care... If you are buying, it might be another story.

    Keyless-go option

    My wife said that it is a deal breaker for her. She has not had to use a key in ten years and doesn't want to start again now.

    152 miles service engine light came on

    Two to three months apparently before engineering in Germany can produce and qualify a software fix...

    Keyless-go option

    There are very few of the SAE DC quick chargers in the U.S. We are primarily a Chademo DC and J1772 AC market at this juncture...

    Car and Driver - BMW i3 vs. Mercedes B Class Electric.

    The majority of the QCs I use are the AV EV50 and they are rock solid and reliable. They will charge to 100% if you let them... I love watching the charge start at 50Kw if my SOC is low enough...

    I am not going to order until QC is available, which is supposed to be next year...

    Car and Driver - BMW i3 vs. Mercedes B Class Electric.

    I've had my Leaf with QC for 3 1/2 years and would never buy an EV without QC... First, most commercial chargers run off of 208 volts because of the way that 3 phase power is distributed, and are limited to 30 amps. Thus, you are limited to about a maximum of 6.2Kw input to the vehicle's...

    What kind of range are you getting?

    I pay little attention to range prediction meters... Experience has shown them to be simply too variable unless you always drive the same speed and on flat terrain...

    Becker Map Pilot

    Everything that I have read certainly indicates that it is a standard and included feature. I think a call to MB is in order... If it is, in fact, not standard, it would certainly seem that there is some truth in advertising considerations...

    Actually, few people manage to do 100 miles in the Leaf in the real world without resorting to some driving compromises... 85 miles in a new Leaf with a fresh pack and 100% charge is much more common...

    Requesting Feedback on MBrace (MB's Onstar equivalent app)

    If it doesn't also work with Android and browsers other than Chrome, which are the majority of systems out there, then it is of negligible value IMHO...

    Or they are at the dealer waiting for the software fix... :lol:

    You are well on your way to a Lemon Law return...

    Charging Station

    The rebate is likely a good idea but whether or not a second meter is cost effective for you depends largely on the particulars of your specific electrical setup and how much it would cost to install the second meter head. I have underground utilities so it would have been prohibitively...

    152 miles service engine light came on

    I wonder how much of the software is Tesla and how much is MB... Unlike the RAV4EV, which is almost all Tesla, I suspect the B EV is largely MB...
