The 2022 Mercedes-Benz EQS has only just made its debut in Pasadena and Pasadena, but drivers from all over the region are already lining up to get a closer look. Since this model offers superior luxury features, forward-thinking style, and a unique look—not to mention an efficient, all-electric drive—it’s not at all difficult to understand why. The EQS looks and feels like nothing else on the road, but if you still need convincing, just check out the list below! We’ve collected ten of the reasons why the electric Mercedes-Benz EQS is practically guaranteed to please.
Customizable 64-color ambient lighting, massaging front seats, and plush, comfortable headrests—these are just a few of the features that make the 2022 Mercedes-Benz EQS interior such a welcoming place to be. ENERGIZING COMFORT® technology promotes wellness by synchronizing your in-cabin audio, lighting, and fragrance features, and the all-new ENERGIZING NATURE® feature lets you select from a wide variety of outdoor-inspired ambient settings.
The base-level EQS 450+ Sedan offers 329 hp, 417 lb-ft of torque, and a 5.9-second 0-to-60 time—not bad for a vehicle that produces no emissions while it drives. The even more powerful EQS 580 4MATIC® Sedan provides 516 hp, 631 lb-ft of torque, and a 4.1-second 0–60 time. In other words, this all-electric sedan has more than enough power to revolutionize your time on Thousand Oaks and Westlake Village roads.
The 2022 EQS was developed from the ground up on an all-new, absolutely unique EV platform. As a result, it looks like nothing else on the road today! Its sleek, curved, organic design calls the natural world to mind, so you can feel at one with the world around you, even while you’re shielded from the elements.
Of all the highlights in the new Mercedes-Benz EQS interior, few have received more attention than the optional 56-inch curved-glass MBUX Hyperscreen. This unmistakable technology feature combines the functions of a central touchscreen and a digital gauge cluster in order to put all of your most-valued controls in clear view. It pairs perfectly with standard Natural Language Understanding in order to provide seamless voice control on the road.
The 2022 EQS has been built with more than 350 interior and exterior sensors in order to keep you protected at all times, in all conditions. The range of standard features includes Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC®, ATTENTION ASSIST®, Active Blind Spot Assist, Evasive Steering Assist, Active Lane Change Assist, and PRESAFE®—and this list only scratches the surface.
With standard 20-inch wheels and optional 21-inch wheels, the EQS stands tall on the roads of Pasadena. (The wheels also feature unique, eye-catching designs that will help you stand out!) A high ride height is important to ensure a clear view of the road ahead—but we would only be telling half the story if we didn’t mention the EQS sedan’s combination windshield-panoramic roof. When all is said and done, few vehicles can match the level of visibility that the EQS provides as standard.
If you’re anything like most of the drivers we know, you can’t afford to put your whole life on hold every time you step behind the wheel. Every EQS comes standard with Wireless Apple CarPlay, Wireless Android Auto, six 100W USB-C charging ports, Near-Field Communication (NFC) pairing, and even wireless device charging! Rear-cabin wireless device charging is optional, along with in-car Wi-Fi™. What’s more, wireless, over-the-air updates will keep your EQS on the cutting edge for years and years to come!
The 2022 EQS Sedan offers a maximum range of up to 350 miles, and with DC Fast Charging, you can replenish your battery from 10% to 80% in as little as 31 minutes! With AC, at-home charging, it takes just 11.25 hours to bring the EQS from 10% to 100%. Just plug in overnight and let the onboard charging system take care of the rest! Best of all, 30-minute charging sessions at Electrify America DC fast charging stations are complimentary for your first two years on the road.
We’ve already mentioned that the EQS is available with two powertrain configurations, and each of these configurations is offered in three unique trims! The most accessible EQS starts at $102,310 MSRP, while the most expensive model starts at $125,310 MSRP. In other words, you can bring home a fully-loaded EQS for a price increase of just over 20% from the base model!
The EQS is powered by electricity, and unlike gasoline, electricity can be generated using a wide variety of sustainable means. This results in a lower carbon footprint—but it’s also important to note that other features in the EQS are no less sustainable than its powertrain! Recycled and renewable raw materials, including recycled nylon, are common throughout the cabin—and you can rest assured that they leave nothing to be desired where comfort or luxury are concerned.
