 Mercedes-Benz unveils the all-new, sleek 2022 EQS electric vehicle:

German carmaker Mercedes has now ventured into the electric vehicle market with the 2022 Mercedes-Benz EQS. In a launch event held on Thursday, the exquisite Mercedes EV model was showcased with many exciting features to give established electric vehicle manufacturers like Tesla a run for the market. The design of the Mercedes-Benz EQS reflects the company’s track record of luxury and excellence combined with beauty and top-notch technology.

Mercedes-Benz hopes to redefine the EV segment for luxury sedans with the new EQS, which comes with features that can measure with some of Tesla’s premium EVs. The release of the Mercedes-Benz EQS is a bold indication that the German automaker intends to pursue the acquisition of a proportion of the market share in the EV market, as the EQS debuts in the United States next fall. The 2022 Mercedes-Benz EQS will be part of the S-Class family.

To underscore the bold intentions of Mercedes-Benz, CEO Ola Kaellenius, in an extensive release document, says that the EQS was designed to exceed the expectations of its teeming customers, and this desire is reflected in all aspects of the EQS, brimming with excellence through and through.

The interior of the 2022 EQS is adorned with gadgets and designed like the cockpit of a spacecraft, with several screens offering operational and entertainment support. The appeal of the futuristic interior of the 2022 EQS is bound to draw enthusiasts for closer scrutiny and even comparison with the overtly simplistic interiors of Tesla’s latest luxury sedans, and this could be a stand-out feature of the 2022 Mercedes-Benz EQS.

The 2022 Mercedes-Benz EQS electric vehicle could cost up to $100,000 according to industry watchers who expect the EQS to be more expensive than the latest Mercedes-Benz S-Class and also to be marginally more expensive than Tesla’s Model S large sedans.

The 2022 EQS is the first step in Mercedes-Benz’s “Ambition 2039” initiative to get EV versions of more than half the cars it sells by 2039. The car is the first EV running on a new vehicle platform for Mercedes-Benz and features more efficient batteries with significantly higher energy density and a higher range (about 770km) before needing a recharge. The EQS is also packed with several techs, safety, convenience, and entertainment features that places it at par with current EV sedan models.

Tesla remains the industry leader in EV sales in the US and globally, expanding to other markets, including China. Hence Mercedes-Benz has its work cut out for it as it aims to prise the leaderboard position out of Tesla. The level of acceptance of the 2022 EQS in the US market when it arrives in the fall of 2022 will determine how well it has moved.

But if you like it clean and straightforward, the 2022 Mercedes-Benz appeals to minimalist senses with optional white or cream upholstery, genuinely sustainable wood trim, and quilted leather fabrics. The all-new 2022 EQS electric sedan is essentially a battery-powered S-Class, but the former is riding on a new dedicated platform. The EQS previews the brand’s swoopy ‘one-bow’ design language offering best-in-class aerodynamics and unprecedented interior room in the luxury sedan category.

The all-new 2022 Mercedes-Benz EQS will officially debut this April 15. It will be the first all-electric Mercedes-Benz to arrive in U.S. showrooms following the abrupt cancelation of the EQC SUV’s production debut last February. Also coming this September is the EQE sedan, an all-electric derivative of the popular E-Class sedan to rival the Tesla Model S.


The EQS450+ features an electric motor mounted on its rear axle that generates 329 horsepower and 406 pound-feet of torque. The EQS580 4Matic has an electric motor on each axle, which translates to all-wheel drive and a total system output of 516 horsepower and 611 pound-feet of torque. Mercedes estimates the rear-drive variant will accelerate from zero to 60 mph in 5.5 seconds. Opting for the more powerful all-wheel-drive model is said to drop the zero-to-60-mph time to 4.1 seconds. Every EQS rides on an adaptive air suspension and rolls on rims that range in size between 19 and 21 inches. Standard rear-axle-steering system can angle the rear wheels up to 4.5 degrees, and there's an optional upgrade that can turn them 10 degrees. This technology is intended to both make the 205.4-inch-long sedan easier to maneuver in tight spots and increase its stability at high speeds. We expect the EQS to exhibit a quiet cabin and silken ride quality, but we'll have to wait until we get behind the wheel to confirm those assumptions.




The 2022 EQS comes packed with standard driver-assistance technology, including adaptive cruise control and self-parking assist. For more information about the EQS's crash-test results, visit the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) websites. Key safety features include:

  •  Standard automated emergency braking with pedestrian detection
  •  Standard lane-departure warning and lane-keeping assist
  •  Standard blind-spot monitoring
