Spring/Summer 2022
Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV will soon join a new, all-electric era in the upper market segments, which includes the luxury sedan EQS and the sporty executive sedan EQE.
The SUV offers plenty of space, comfort and connectivity for up to seven passengers in its avant-garde, luxurious interior. Thanks to powerful electric motors, responsive 4MATIC all-wheel drive and an intelligent Offroad driving mode, the EQS SUV is also capable of tackling light terrain with ease.
The new EQS SUV shares the long wheelbase (3,210 mm) with the EQS Sedan but is over 20 cm higher.
The second row of seats can be electrically adjusted as standard. Up to four golf bags fit in the boot. A third row of seats with two additional individual seats and extensive comfort features for all passengers is available as an option.
The EQS Sedan is the current aerodynamics world champion for production cars. Its purpose design with smooth underbody and usually closed radiator shutter was a good starting point for aerodynamic measures on the EQS SUV. The optimisation of SUV-typical flow details led to a hitherto unique combination of spaciousness and aerodynamic efficiency.
All EQS SUVs have an electric drive train (eATS) on the rear axle, and the versions with 4MATIC also have an eATS on the front axle. In the 4MATIC models, the Torque Shift function ensures intelligent, continuously variable distribution of drive torque between the rear and front electric motors and thus the use of the most-efficient eATS in each case. The electric motors on the front and rear axles are permanently excited synchronous motors (PSM). The advantages of this design include high power density, high efficiency and high-power constancy.
With the EQS SUV, Mercedes-Benz is taking a major step towards zero-emission mobility and is moving a step closer to fulfilling Ambition 2039. The model is produced in a completely CO2-neutral way. The EQS SUV puts real solutions for emission-free mobility, intelligent resource conservation and responsible circular economy on the road, says the carmaker.
The chassis of the new EQS SUV has a four-link axle at the front and an independent multi-link suspension at the rear. The Airmatic air suspension with continuously adjustable damping ADS+ is standard equipment.
The vehicle level can be raised by several centimetres. In addition to the Dynamic Select modes Eco, Comfort, Sport and Individual, the 4MATIC versions feature Offroad, a further mode for off-road driving.
Navigation with Electric Intelligence plans the fastest and most convenient route, including charging stops, based on numerous factors and reacts dynamically to traffic jams or a change in driving style, for example. This includes a visualisation in the MBUX infotainment system as to whether the state of charge of the battery is sufficient to return to the starting point without charging. Charging stations along the route that have been added manually are given preference in the route calculation.
The highlight of the interior is the MBUX Hyperscreen (special equipment). This large, curved screen unit spans almost from A-pillar to A-pillar. Three screens sit under a common cover glass and merge visually.
