MERCEDES EQE 2023: WHERE ELECTRIC INNOVATION MEETS LUXURY

EV Channels Review

The 2023 Mercedes-Benz EQE 350 4Matic sedan impresses with its luxurious and comfortable cabin, packed with technology. The reviewer highlights the generous trunk space (15.2 cubic feet) and the clever button-operated folding rear seats. Rear seat legroom is ample, though headroom is noted as slightly tight. The interior materials are generally excellent, particularly the MB-Tex artificial leather. However, the reviewer cautions against optional cosmetic trims like the "540 trim" and the "piano black with matte dots" center console trim, deeming them not worth the extra cost. The MBUX infotainment system is praised for its responsiveness, ease of use, and features like the "Zero Layer" interface and excellent voice controls. While the absence of the Hyperscreen in the US market for 2023 is noted, the reviewer prefers the dual-screen setup for its aesthetics and functionality. Seat comfort is high, with standard heated front seats, but ventilation and massage functions are costly add-ons. A significant drawback mentioned is the intrusive center tunnel, which may affect driving ergonomics for some. The HEPA filtration system is a standout feature for air quality. Overall, despite the numerous optional extras that drive up the price, the EQE 350 4Matic is considered a well-built and technologically advanced luxury EV that justifies its price point.
