MERCEDES EQS 2022 REVIEW – WE PUT MERC'S POSH EV THROUGH THE TOUGHEST LIMO TEST

EV Channels Review

The Mercedes EQS 2022 is reviewed as a luxurious electric saloon, aiming to be the ultimate chauffeur-driven experience. While praised for its spacious interior, advanced technology (including the optional £8,000 hyper screen), and quiet cabin, the review highlights several drawbacks. Notably, the absence of a heated steering wheel on a £122,000 vehicle is deemed astonishingly poor value. Build quality issues with loose switches and a slightly disappointing ride on broken surfaces are also mentioned. The reviewer found the driving experience surprisingly agile and nimble, likening it to a large Mini, which deviates from the expected ultra-smooth limo feel. Despite these criticisms, the rear passenger experience was rated highly (9/10) for comfort and amenities, while the front driving experience received a 7.5/10, suggesting it's fun but not the ultimate relaxed cruiser anticipated.
