I've always really loved the Mercedes-Benz EQS, but for the most part, the public does not have, it goes for all the whole EQ sub-brands Mercedes has tried to realize. People didn't feel the atmosphere in the ultra-aerodynamic, egg-y styling or screen-filled interiors, and the global EV market was fluid to say the least. That's why Mercedes is returning to a more traditional design and layout with new EVs like the CLA sedan and GLC Crossover, but still giving up the EQ.The 2027 eqs sedan will undergo an overhaul almost as big as Mercedes gave to the face-up 2027 S class, with the automaker saying that more than a quarter of all components are new and more than 50% are new in the S-class. The biggest upgrade is that it now has an 800 volt architecture with a larger battery, let it charge a lot faster and can go a lot more. Mercedes says the 2027 EQS will have a range of 575 miles in the European WLTP cycle, almost 100 miles more than the current model.
The current rear-wheel drive EQS450+ is rated at a range of 390 miles by the EPA, so if U.S. agencies get a new EQ later this year and at least a range of 450 miles, Mercedes is working on a solid-state battery, with one EQS prototype that goes 749 miles in the real world, if that's not enough for you. I am sure It will be. The battery size of EQS is currently 122 kWh, up from the 400 kWh of the current EQS 118 volt pack, and there are many other changes to the battery as well.The cell features an anode where silicon oxides blend with graphite. This allows more energy to be stored per kilogram as gravi metric energy density has increased compared to previous generation batteries with conventional graphite anodes. At the same time, a larger range was achieved within the same battery dimensions, due to the increased volume energy density of cell chemistry. The proportion of cobalt has also decreased further.

The big pain of existing environmental standards is the 200 kW DC fast charge rate, but the new one is responsible for up to 350 kW and has nearly 200 miles of WLTP range in 10 minutes. If the plug-in car 400 type turbo charger is charged, the environmental standard value of the computer is practically divided into half of the batteries, each of which has 175 kW. The power applied to the recuperation of the Mercedes spark plug, sensor and regenerative brake is 290kW-385kW, and the good atmosphere introduces the current more than the ability of one pedal.Mercedes now makes its electric motors in-house, with new ones being smaller and more efficient. The front motor of the all-wheel drive model has an automatic cutting function, while the rear motor has a 2-speed transmission, like the CLA and other new electric benzes. We don't have full specs or performance figures yet, but we expect the face-lifted EQ to be faster and more powerful.
For better or worse, the design of the EQ has not changed much. In 2024 Mercedes environmental standards value counted for requiring the renovation of the hood decoration and traditional Le grille panels standing option front design. As in the Liberal Arts Department "Grill" is now completely separate headlights, ranging from ancient to modern, about the star design. Between the pole grille lights up the bunch, and the ornament of the animated star hood is a lit ceremony. If it's too much, you can get the AMG line with a large Mercedes logo in the center and a lot of lit-up stars on the black panel.The hood has a bruffer shape and a pair of power domes, and the rear diffuser has been styled. If you have a real sharp eye, you will notice an extra loop of helix tail lights, but you will definitely notice that the car Op Mercedes in these photos micro LED headlights have a higher resolution and are 50% more efficient, and the adaptive high beam will be available in the US for the first time. I will not be able to do it.
Inside, things are getting even less. The hyper-screen of the display becomes the standard, and the design of the interior looks the same year after year. However, EQS is now using a brand new MB.OS operating system with a new supercomputer. Many technical features have been improved, from AI voice assistants to augmented reality navigation systems. You can get a new heated seat belt eqs now includes a power adjustable seat with a standard effortless headrest. Rear seat comfort package Mercedes offers more customization options through its Manufaktur department, from elaborate color and leather options to fully one-off specifications and details. The company also installed 10 external cameras, 12 ultrasonic sensors, and up to 5 radar sensors in the car, which operate in MB.OS system to unlock new driver assist features like aggressive car line changes.

Oh, you may have noticed a yoke-style steering wheel. If you spec the EQS with the new steer-by-wire option that Mercedes has been teasing us for years, you get it. The EQS already comes standard with rear-wheel steering that rotates up to 10 degrees (one of the biggest reasons I like to drive them), and it gives a new steering wheel with rocker and roller controls, even if you don't get a facelift yoke.Some automakers believe that Steer-by-wire is a driving experience that sets a new standard with Mercedes–Benz precision, transforming the interaction between the vehicle and the driver. The all-new steering feeling offers a unique experience and offers a wide range of driving dynamics as well as the benefits of everyday driving situations that benefit steering and parking. The steering effort needed from the driver can be further reduced and the driver no longer needs to adjust the grip on the steering wheel when rotating.
It can eliminate vibrations caused by uneven road surfaces that were previously transmitted to the driver through the steering wheel. An accurate and intuitive steering feel is maintained. The steering-by-wire also gives the interior a new look. The flatter steering wheel significantly opens up space for the driver, improves the view of the driver display and facilitates entry and exit. The EQS now combines sportiness and comfort even more effectively while further enhancing driving stability and lateral agility. Chassis experts have flexibly adapted the steering ratio to different driving situations. In addition to this, there is a perfect interaction with standard rear axle steering. At higher speeds, the rear wheels steer parallel to the front wheels to increase driving stability.
In order to ensure that the steering-by-wire meets the brand's stringent safety standards, the design includes high-precision sensors and powerful control units, as well as redundant 2 signal paths to ensure that the steering function is always guaranteed. Lateral control is also possible via rear axle steering and targeted wheel-specific braking intervention via ESP.Mercedes says the 2027 EQ will reach U.S. dealers later this year. The face lift of the EQS SUV should follow soon. EQE sedans and EQE SUVs are also likely to undergo a facelift soon, but I don't think these small models will continue to be sold in America. I wouldn't expect the EQS AMG to stick around, either.
