Mercedes EQE 350

The Mercedes EQE 350 is a model based on an electrical architecture developed specifically for electric vehicles.

After the Mercedes EQS AMG model, which we wrote about earlier, at the IAA Munich Mercedes will unveil its sports sedan, the EQE 350. It is a car with a short wheelbase equipped with a new larger grille, redesigned headlights with LED accents.

Inside, the first thing drivers will notice is a full-length MBUX Hyperscreen with a 12.3-inch digital instrument panel, a central 17.7-inch touchscreen and a 12.3-inch passenger-side screen. The sports seats are upholstered in fake leather, which can be seen on the steering wheel and doors.

The Mercedes EQE is powered by an electric motor with 290 hp (215 kW) and 391 lb-ft (530 Nm) of torque. It has rear-wheel drive, while the 4Matic all-wheel drive will be available as an option. The engine is powered by a 90.6 kWh battery pack that gives the vehicle a range of 410 miles (660 kilometers). Thanks to the fast charging, the battery can be charged up to 80 percent in just 31 minutes.

Thanks to the adjustable suspension, the car can reduce its height by 1 inch at speeds less than 75 mph (120 km / h). It will reach 60 mph in 5.6 seconds with a top speed of 130 mph (210 km / h). It will ride on 19-inch wheels, and 21-inch and 22-inch wheels will be optional.

2022 Mercedes EQS AMG

At this year’s IAA in Munich, Mercedes will unveil the AMG version of the EQS model. The high-performance car will arrive on the American market at the beginning of 2022.

The all-electric sedan is powered by an electric motor with 751 hp and 752 lb-ft of torque. It reaches 62 mph in 3.4 seconds with a top speed of 155 mph (249 km / h). EQS achieves this performance thanks to the AMG Dynamic Plus Package in Race Start mode. For comparison, the standard EQS has 649 hp (483 kW) and 700 lb-ft (516 Nm) of torque. The AMG EQS has the same battery pack as the standard EQS. The range of the AMG model is not known. Given that the base EQS has a range of 478 miles (700 kilometers), we hope that AMG engineers have worked on this segment as well.

The AMG package brought several new things such as 21-inch alloy wheels with 17-inch front brake discs or a high-performance ceramic composite brake system as an option, while retaining the standard body. There’s also a new front splitter, a bigger rear wing, and a diffuser.

Inside, heated massage seats upholstered in the finest materials, a full-length MBUX Hyperscreen, sports pedals, a panoramic roof and a lot of AMG branding are some of the standard equipment brought by the AMG package.

The price of this model is not known. It is certain that the AMG equipment package brings improved performance compared to the standard model and that it will not be cheap.
