  • As Mercedes-Benz continues to expand their electric portfolio, the #MercedesBenzEQESUV is the next chapter of the #MercedesEQ family. This #EQE500 with #4Matic AWD takes the #EQE sedan and transforms it into a more practical SUV. The result is a midsize electric crossover that is roughly the EV equivalent to the very popular #MercedesBenzGLEClass.

    Range needs to be at least 400 miles before anyone would consider this. 269 probably means 240 to 250 with the A/C or heater going.

      I agree with you I have the ioniq 5 range isn't bad but when you turn on the ac or heat it kills 10 to 20 miles. If it had 300 mi, it would be a great mileage car. I do use all the miles from my ioniq.

    I'm frustrated the majors don't seem to believe making the cars truly beautiful and desireable is important. MB themselves have been saying dealers are telling them the EQ cars dont elicit the same passion in their customers as their S class and others- I fully realize beauty is subjective, but by most peoples' opinions these cars are at best boring and uninspiring. Until they fix that most people will not pay the huge amounts of money these cars cost.

    Plus, the monumentally superior supercharger network. Four built-in dash cams with the option to request accident footage from Tesla for the other 3-4 cameras.
    And at least a dozen other things that is adjustable in the car, and from the Tesla app, that isn't even user adjustable on most other cars.

      Mercedes needs to realize that, once a car is sold, it no longer belongs to them. Mercedes has absolutely ZERO rights to that car whatsoever from the second the purchase is made, and the consumer is legally free to do absolutely anything they want with it. Im surprised this hood bullshit isn’t considered illegal. They have no right to control or put restrictions on your personal property.

Also LESS stress purchasing from Tesla than dealerships.

    Yes we get you don’t like the styling but what you call jellybean I call sleek, classic and aerodynamic and when it comes down to it people want range. Nice it’s fast but you focus way too much on that esp in this segment. Here people want luxury and utility that should be most important.

      Im American so I don’t know what a nob is but I think it means a superior person so thanks! He noted the drag coefficient was low that is what they are going for for the best range for the battery pack they use. And while a 300 mile range seems ok to me, trading off some of that unneccesary acceleration for more range is probably what most buyers prefer: not long ago 5.5 seconds was very fast for any vehicle of this type so what rich (nob) soccer mom needs 4.x seconds?

It's relevant now with the booming electric car market. So why not?
