Oh no, not another EQ #MercedesBenz! I know what you’re thinking – #Mercedes make some butt ugly #ev ‘s don’t they? I mean seriously, they all look like eggs with car shapes painted on them. Utterly boring on the outside – yet annoyingly brilliant in terms of range, luxury and the superb interiors.
But with the EQE SUV, it might be the most normal looking of the bunch! I actually really think it looks decent. Maybe this is the Electric Mercedes we’ve been waiting for?
We have 3 different variants of this car, all of them use the same 96KW battery, and magnet based PSM electric motors — First the EQE 350 + A RWD version with 292bhp and 565NM, and a 4Matic all wheel drive version of same. These are slow, with 0-60 measured at 6.8 or an eye watering 7.3 in rwd car.
The one we are testing today is the sweet spot — the EQE 500 4matic – with 402hp it does 0-60 in 5.2 secs! Of course, if you want more power, AMG will sell you the EQE 53 AMG. This has 685HP, 1000nm and a sprint to 60 of 3.5 seconds, thanks to the AMG specific motors, fully variable 4matic and amg’s active ride control suspension.
The EQE SUV also brings changes like decoupling of the front axle (not unlike the 63 AMGs drift mode) in order to reduce energy consumption and increase range — this is of course in the 4Matic versions of the car.
Today we will compare the car to the normal EQE sedan, the GLE, rivals like the IX and more. We will also look at the Hyper screen and basic screen variants of the interior to see which is better!
