Mercedes-Benz is giving a sneak peek of an electric van that’s among the models broadening its battery-powered range over the next year.

The electric iteration of the Mercedes T-Class, dubbed EQT, will accommodate as many as seven passengers and launch in 2022, Daimler AG’s main division said Monday. It will flank the Citan commercial van due to be introduced later this year, a version of which will be battery-electric.
