The Mercedes-Benz EQE (V295) is a battery electric executive car produced by German automobile manufacturer Mercedes-Benz Group. It is part of the Mercedes-Benz EQ family, and was presented at the Munich Motor Show 2021. The only model available at launch has been the rear-motor EQE 350. Its engine has a peak power of 215 kW (288 hp), and it has a range of up to 660 km (410 mi). More variants are said to follow later, including a 4Matic AWD dual-motor setup with a peak engine power output of up to 500 kW (671 hp). The U.S. will get one version simply called the Mercedes AMG EQE which is the same 617-hp EQE 53 4matic+ seen in Europe.
Technical features[]
With a single electric motor mounted on its rear axle, the EQE350+ generates 288 horsepower and 391 pound-feet of torque. Mercedes says this setup will allow the sedan to accelerate from zero to 60 mph in 5.6 seconds on its way to an estimated top speed of 130 mph. An all-wheel-drive version EQE500 will be offered with a second electric motor powering the front wheels and producing 402 horses. Both configurations will be available with an air suspension and a rear-wheel-steering system for what should be a very smooth ride and improved maneuverability in tight spaces. We experienced the quietness and swiftness of the EQE350+ during our first drive. A set of 19-inch wheels are standard, but we expect larger rims to be offered, likely with the optional AMG Line appearance package.
Performance model[]
In 2022, the high-performance EQE 43 & 53 4Matic+ versions were unveiled. Changes include power bumps of up to 687 PS (505 kW; 678 hp), 1,000 N⋅m (738 lb⋅ft) of torque, upgraded internals and AMG touches inside and out.
