Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV – Review, Specs, Pricing, Features, Videos and More

Power comes from a single motor powering the rear wheels or a pair of dual motors that drive all four wheels. Being a cutting edge electric, the vehicle’s styling is anything but contemporary.

2023 Mercedes-Benz EQS 580 SUV Review
Agent Smith would like the 2023 Mercedes-Benz EQS 580 SUV. After all, it was inevitable.
When the EQS sedan came out last year, it signalled the electric future of Mercedes-Benz. Here was an EV worthy of the luxury badge, one with a radically different look inside and out. The EQS deleted the idea of range anxiety too: we drove it 417 miles (671 kilometers) in the summer.
But that was a sedan. Ask anybody what the market wants and the answer is the same: SUVs. Thus the EQS SUV has arrived, a stretched high-rider packing three-rows, and sitting atop the sprawling Merc crossover lineup. Does the recipe translate to the SUV world? Mostly, yes—but with some additional compromises.
