<\/use><\/svg><\/use><\/svg>Only the 4MATIC model will come with the 56-inch Hyperscreen. Those who opt for the less expensive trim will still get a digital gauge cluster and a 12.8-inch portrait-style touchscreen. (When I tested the EQS sedan last year, I marveled at the hugeness of the Hyperscreen but also worried about the lack of physical knobs and the possibility of distractions. The company claims drivers can find \u201c90 percent\u201d of what they\u2019re looking for on the first layer of the screen without having to scroll through menus or use the voice assistant.)<\/p>\n
Obviously, a major difference between the EQS and EQS SUV is size. The EQS SUV is an SUV and, by definition, is larger than a sedan. While both have the same sized wheelbase (126 inches), the ESQ SUV is over 7.8 inches higher than the sedan. At 202 inches long, 77 inches wide, and 68 inches tall, the EQS SUV is slightly slimmer and shorter than the 2022 Mercedes GLS-Class. <\/p>\n

Obviously, a major difference between the EQS and EQS SUV is size<\/q><\/aside>\n<\/div>\nAnother thing that distinguishes the SUV from the sedan is off-roading capabilities. The EQS SUV will come with an OFFROAD driving mode, in which the AWD distribution is \u201coptimized for unpaved roads, inclines and terrain.\u201d Hummer EV with Crab Mode this thing ain\u2019t, but it is cool to think about bouncing along some gravel roads while fully ensconced in a German-made luxury interior. That said, most people who buy this EV aren\u2019t the types to seek out challenging back-road drives. <\/p>\n
Like the EQS sedan, the SUV will come with Plug and Charge capabilities. That means the EQS SUV will be compatible with about 90 percent of the public charging stations in the US without the need to download an app or sign up for an individual charging service. Mercedes didn\u2019t provide information about SUV architecture\u2019s voltage, but it did say that the battery will charge from 10 percent to 80 percent in 31 minutes when plugged into a 110kW-or-more DC fast charger. The EQS SUV\u2019s peak output is 265kW. <\/p>\n
Something that caught my eye in the 55-page (!!) press release about the EQS SUV is the description of the SUV\u2019s interior as \u201cavant-garde.\u201d Apparently, the contrast between the massive Hyperscreen and an ultra-thin vent band that spans the width of the dashboard, as well as \u201ccircular ambient lighting,\u201d are the two interior design elements that qualify as avant-garde to Mercedes-Benz. I\u2019ll leave it up to the art critics to determine whether that meets the standard from their perspective. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
