Mercedes-Benz EQE 500 SUV Review / This is the Mercedes EQ to get

When I previously reviewed the Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV, I said that the smart thing to do is to buy the EQE SUV instead. Sure, it’s slightly less powerful and has slightly less range, but it’s available with almost all of the same options and same level of comfort but at a lower price. So now that I have the Mercedes-Benz EQE 500 SUV on demo, was I right?
The EQE 500 is powered by two electric motors that are mounted at each axle. In total, it produces 402 hp & 633 lb-ft of torque (300 kW & 858 Nm). Mercedes claims a 0-100 km/h time of 4.9 seconds which is still very brisk considering the 2,404 kg (5,300 lbs) curb weight. Just like many other EVs, this EQE provides instant power the moment you press on the accelerator pedal. It sheds all of its weight and becomes relentless in its acceleration. The rate of acceleration does slow down the faster the SUV goes but that’s normal for most EVs and gasoline powered vehicles.
The Mercedes-Benz EQE 500 SUV has an estimated driving range of 433 km (269 miles). During my time with the SUV, I averaged 24 kWh/100km (2.59 miles/kWh). That is a little bit high which meant that if I had not recharged the battery, I could have driven the car for only 377 km (234 km).
While the Mercedes-Benz EQE SUV is less expensive than the EQS SUV, it’s still going to cost you a pretty penny to own. It starts at $104,900 CAD ($89,500 USD) and this demo car is equipped to a price of $117,930 CAD. These are prices for the 2023 model year. Mercedes-Benz, for some reason, has not advertised the prices for the 2024 Mercedes-Benz EQE SUV.
