FIRST LOOK: 2022 MERCEDES EQS

EV Channels Review

The 2022 Mercedes-Benz EQS is presented as a near-perfect blend of S-Class luxury and cutting-edge EV technology. The reviewer highlights its striking 'one-bow' design, exceptionally low drag coefficient (.20), and practical hatchback utility, which surprised many. Inside, the standout feature is the massive 56-inch Hyperscreen, offering an immersive and highly customizable user experience with haptic feedback. The reviewer praises the exceptional NVH levels, creating a near-silent cabin, and the advanced air filtration system. Practicality is addressed with a spacious rear cargo area and convenient charging port placement. While the reviewer notes the car is a German-spec pre-production model, they are impressed by the build quality, advanced driver assistance systems, and the innovative 'Energizing Comfort' features, including a 'Power Nap' mode. The rear-wheel steering and extensive customization options further enhance its appeal. The EQS is positioned as a no-compromise electric vehicle, offering the comfort and quality of an S-Class with a leading electrification system, potentially making it the best electric car, and perhaps the best car, on the market.
