Mercedes-Benz EQS (2021-2025)

Saloon2021-2025Discontinued

Mercedes-Benz EQS 450+

The Mercedes-Benz EQS 450+ travels further between charges than most competing saloons, around 378 miles on the motorway. It also offers more luggage space than most competing saloons.

By eight years on the road it should still hold about 84% of its battery health, roughly 459 km of real-world range, which is a useful yardstick if you’re buying used. What owners say: Owners report 400 to 450 miles in mild conditions, with a dependable range estimate. Deep, confusing menus are accompanied by frequent failures of face recognition and voice control.

What Owners Say

Balanced

Owners Love

  • Owners report 400 to 450 miles in mild conditions, with a dependable range estimate.
  • Even at motorway speeds, the powertrain is nearly silent.
  • Rear-wheel steering delivers a much tighter turning circle than the car’s size suggests.

Watch Out For

  • Deep, confusing menus are accompanied by frequent failures of face recognition and voice control.
  • Cabin quality is disappointing for the price, with flimsy-feeling air vents, door cards and dashboard.
  • Peak charging of 200 kW trails rivals, with 10-80% taking about 31 minutes.

Owner Tips

  • Before buying, request a battery health report and ask about the car’s charging history.
  • Check that car’s battery warranty cover, as owners say Mercedes altered the terms in 2024.
  • Use the regen paddles rather than the brake pedal, which sinks before it bites.
