2022 Mercedes-Benz EQS Range Test Review: 417 Miles in Comfort
This was not going to be a 2022 Mercedes-Benz EQS hypermiling exercise.
No, if I was going to test the limits of the EQS’s range, I was going to do it just like a normal owner might. No turning off the climate control to eke out extra mileage. No annoying fellow motorists by going 15 under on the highway. There was a plan.
This simple impetus resulted in my driving some 400 miles in 24 hours. The EQS didn’t just beat its quoted range (340 miles / 547 km), it demolished it, pulling off 22-percent more distance between charges. Spending that long in Merc’s EV flagship gave me plenty of time to get to know the car; what works, what doesn’t, and if it really deserves the S in its badge. Here’s what I learned, broken down into 100-kilometer (62-mile) chunks.
