Winter holidays are fast approaching, and if you’re not heading overseas this year, a trip closer to home is definitely in order. Did somebody say road trip?

That’s why we’ve put together a special package to give one lucky reader and their family a chance to indulge in a weekend getaway, driving the all-electric EQV from Mercedes-EQ to one of the outdoorsy escapes available on Riparide!

If you haven’t had the opportunity to drive an electric vehicle yet, the EQV will set the bar pretty high. It has all the same luxuries you’d expect from a Mercedes-Benz (including voice activated features if you say ‘Hey Mercedes’ and ergonomic seats) but now electrically powered.

The van has also been designed with family adventures in mind, with plenty of room for seven people and an indicative driving range of 418km. Plus if you do need to charge it up, it only takes approximately 45 minutes at a rapid DC charging station.

Whether you want to stay in a mid-century retreat in leafy North Warrandyte, or a secluded hideaway in New South Wales’ serene Blue Mountains, a Riparide stay will help you unplug and unwind. Just enter our giveaway to test drive the EQV yourself to a destination of your choice!

To go in the running to experience the all-electric EQV from Mercedes-EQ and a $1000 Riparide voucher, fill out the entry form below. The EQV is only available for travel in VIC or NSW only.

Please note this competition is now closed. The winner was drawn and notified on June 20 via email. See here for the T&Cs.
