  • The 2022 Mercedes-Benz EQS 450 is an all-electric rival to Merc's iconic luxury limo, the S-Class. It's built from the ground up to be an EV, so does it give you all the soft-touch, silent-as-a-church wafty vibes that it should? Or is it too a high-tech dumpster fire? Join me for a full walkaround and driving review - including what it's like to use as a family car.

    I'm a former Tesla owner now. I traded
    it for a 450+ ($102K base price) and it even came with a steering wheel!!!! 425 mile reading at 100% charge and it self-drives on
    par or better in some ways than my Tesla did. And It's plenty fast enough too. This is a car for
    grown-ups who want every possible creature comfort, class, quiet cabin,
    great build quality, long battery range with brick and mortar
    dealerships in every town... It's a dream to drive and turns on a
    dime. And Mercedes even threw in 2 years of free charging at electrify america.... Nothing to complain about. Plus my Tesla-brand home wall charger works perfectly on the EQS with a $150 doller plug-in converter,....

    The EQS is the first EV I've lustily coveted. It just looks like such a wonderful place to be.

    I bought my 450+ in June and after a hot summer I am now enjoying drives with the sunroof open. I also like the Apple CarPlay and satellite radio, all features that are not available with Lucid. The adaptive cruise control works great and it is radar controlled, something Tesla stopped using on the Model Y and 3. i am getting 400 miles of range with a 80% charge. I am very happy with the car. My only regret is that it will only hold 3 golf bags with 4 passengers in the car.

    Very nice my kinda ‘future car’, personally the little iPad behind the wheel as a dash pod spoils it a bit they could have moulded that in as part of dash - but otherwise yeah want one.

    I haven't bought one of these because it's heavy, expensive and looks like a gloopy blob. Glad you got to 'show it some corners' though 😁

    I have bought one of these cause it’s a heavy gloopy blob.. and it transports me in quiet comfort for some distance and has lots of bells and whistles..

    Interior looks bad, as if MB have used some old materials from the yard. What happened to the light interior colour..

    I like that they copied Mini on the colored strips on the doors, but I still object to the lack of buttons for climate control.

      Tim Rodie Drives Stuff Yeah man it’s an expensive car for sure but definitely worth saving up for. The quality is insane. Tesla has the worst and cheapest quality i’ve ever seen in any car.

    Did you tell us the price?.. i must not have been listening.. and they spec'ed it that way just so you could tell us how affordable it is for a lux' German car, theyre going to be mad at you! (unless i wasnt listening). Google to the rescue, starting from £100k.. looks like a nice car but not that nice. Ive no doubt they will rip you off for expensive unnecessary dealer 'servicing' as well, which my electric car maker does not do. Perfect?.. not for me at that price and ruined by the German marque badges and 'what they say about you'... otherwise, nice car.

    Good nonsense. Lovely interior, but I think the jelly-mould styling (as an architect wouldn't say) will date it rather quickly.

    OMG 👿
    Learn how to say Ambience!
    You say it with a French accent for some unfathomable reason.
    We are not in France!
    Educate yourself!
