Mercedes EQS Blows Every Other Car Out Of The WATER And It's Not Even Close...

  • Mercedes didn't bring a facelift to their existing model line, they bulldozed the whole thing and replaced it with Las Vegas. It is mind blowing seeing every centimeter of the interior bathed in ambient light, contrasting colors that make it look like a painting, animations that make you smile every time they start, and the entire dash made of displays with some vents woven in. The Hyperscreen makes a Tesla look like a first generation iPhone but you're driving a 14 Pro. Now the Mercedes-Benz EQS 580 isn't flawless, it still needs some help in the driver assistance department, but at least it's an incredibly fun place to be.

      I doubt it depreciates that much. A three year old model x is still worth 75 of original purchase price. So long as the cars do well which by the way they probably will and software updates come out people will pay for them. Only electric cars that are abandoned or cut off by the manufacturer drop. In general they hold their value quite well.

This vehicle is a marvel of technology, and I am a computer guy like you, and I have NO interest whatsoever in owning this thing. It is nothing but a rich person's car to buy and have professionally maintained, and will likely be thrown away in 10 years when some motor inside breaks and costs more to replace than the whole car is worth. I see nothing but a HUGE list of problems to solve, and soon. I'm curious what type of tech support the dealerships get when they need to service these! I'd love to know if you find out.

    Hey JR, I may be wrong, but isn't there a scroll wheel on the steering wheel that will adjust the audio system volume? I don't think you have to reach over to the touchscreen to adjust the volume. Well, I just downloaded the User Manual PDF, and there's no scroll wheel, but there's a rocker under your right thumb on the steering wheel, but I'm sure you knew that but preferred a rotating knob.

    I spent 12 years driving nothing but new Mercedes Benz and this would be a great lease vehicle but you would have to be a fool to buy one. Sadly Mercedes has followed so many other auto makers down the disposable market. In 10 years this will be a brick in a junk yard.

    Great looking car. Being from Mercedes you can count on it costing a fortune to maintain after about four years. It will go through suspension components faster than the gas cars. No doubt it will need seals and bearings and all those fancy actuators on the rear wheels.

    Can't say I'm a fan of all the capacitive controls, looks cool, but the lack of tactility is a huge problem for distraction-free driving. That said, also not a fan of all the LEDs, again cool, but distracting and that's a completely unnecessary load on the battery for aesthetic. Lack of serviceability is a concern for me, and I wouldn't describe the 12v battery as easy to get to, especially if it dies.
    Screens are cool too, but just give me a double-din with an iDataLink kit... All that tech is going to be outdated in varying degrees five years down the road, and at least that way I can update it later on.

      Thanks for your reply. Probably best to make it clear why and on what basis you are testing the car, otherwise it looks like you are just putting out a video whilst being a shill for some dealer.
      Having said that, I have really enjoyed your videos, and been inspired by your tenacity and technical competence when faced with difficult problems. Keep it up!
