The 2022 Mercedes EQS is available in two trims, both receiving energy from a 108.7-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery. The base model will be the EQS 450+, which features a single electric motor on the rear axle for a total of 329 horsepower and 406 pound-feet (245 kilowatts and 550 newton-meters). The EQS 580 4MATIC, as its name suggests, is all-wheel drive thanks to a front electric motor. Total system output is 516 hp and 611 lb-ft (385 kW and 828 Nm), good for a 4.1-second sprint to 60 miles per hour.
The styling of the 2022 Mercedes-Benz EQS is a huge departure from other products from the company, a deliberate choice that establishes EQ products as something unique unto themselves. Since the big sedan is built on its own all-electric architecture free of the constraints of a traditional front-mounted engine, designers pushed the hoodline down and the windshield forward. Meanwhile an arched roofline and liftback – with rear quarter windows that look cribbed directly from the GLE Coupe – create what Mercedes calls a “one-bow” shape, generating from a body line above the front wheel arch and extending all the way to the tail of the EQS.
Speaking of, the tech-forward cabin will probably be the EQS’ strongest trait in the eyes of consumers. Headlining the experience is the available MBUX Hyperscreen, a 56-inch-wide pane of curved glass that houses three individual OLED displays. Directly in front of the driver is a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, while a 17.7-inch center touchscreen handles most infotainment duties. The passenger also gets their own 12.3-inch touchscreen, guarded from the driver’s prying (and distracted) eyes by a camera system that monitors distraction and deactivates that unit if it senses the driver glancing over too much.
The zero layer should allow drivers who are less interested in technology features to merely climb aboard and start their journey, while simultaneously permitting the digitally savvy to customize the infotainment system of the EQS to their heart’s content. And for the true Luddites in the room, Mercedes will offer a more conventional single 12.8-inch, portrait-oriented center touchscreen on the EQS 450, paired to a standard 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster.
The 2022 Mercedes-Benz EQS will arrive at US dealerships later this year, with pricing and official EPA dimensions and EV range numbers announced sometime soon. However, Mercedes representatives wink-winked that we could expect the EQS to mirror the S-Class in terms of value – expect a starting price of about $110,000 for the EQS 450+ and $120,000 for the
