At the Munich Motor Show in early September 2021, Mercedes-Benz brought a variety of electric vehicle models, not only the Concept Mercedes-Maybach EQS and Concept EQG, which communicated in concept form first, but also the first pure electric Mercedes-AMG EQ 53 4Matic+, which was still set for mass production at that time, and the EQE series of the second work of the new generation electric platform. Recently, Mercedes-Benz announced the pre-sale of the Mercedes-EQE series in Europe, and it is expected to be officially launched and delivered in April 2022.
The first wave of the EQE series revealed a total of Mercedes-EQE 350+ and Mercedes-AMG EQE 43 4Matic, with the pre-sale German suggested price of €70,626.5 and €103,827.5, which already includes 19% VAT Value Added Tax.
Even in the cumulative sales results of the whole year in 2021 (including the Smart brand), pure electric models accounted for only 2.3% of them, even if the Plug-In Hybrid is included in the proportion of 11%, Mercedes-Benz is still quite active in responding to the future trend of electropower, compared to the previous rhythm of the establishment of electric sub-brand EQ in 2016, now Mercedes-Benz electrotechnical pace is faster and wider, after the advent of EQS mass production, it has also successfully changed its name and officially hung up mercedes-EQ The sub-brand name is also positioned flush with Mercedes-AMG and Mercedes-Maybach.
The reason for choosing the timing of EQS mass production is not only because pure electric combat power has become a major brand to compete for future technology, but also because EQS is built using its own new generation electric vehicle platform, and EQE is the result of the second new generation of electric vehicle chassis; just like the S in the name of EQS, it represents the flagship representative of pure electric series works, introducing many of the latest technologies and the latest electric power technology, but the high product positioning also means that it is not the main force of sales, and the mass production of EQE is more meaningful Mercedes-EQ's attempt to make a big splash in the sales market.
After all, from the perspective of EQC, EQA, EQB and other works regardless of performance, endurance, charging efficiency, etc., they have not been able to keep up with the mainstream demand of today's market, and have also caused Mercedes-Benz to be a bit thunderous in the electric field. And EQS from the premiere, to the official mass production and sale, there are good reactions in the market, EQE is with EQS to fight side by side, to expand the market performance of Triangs in the field of power, which is not difficult to see from the product settings, Mercedes-EQ for the EQE series of power settings can be connected with EQS, the current EQE has a total of EQE 350+, and Mercedes-AMG EQE is 53 4Matic+ and 43 4Matic ( This time the European price is only announced 43).
The EQS SUV camouflage car is previewed for the first time in April 19, European time, and the third row of seats is included in the optional
In addition to EQE announcing the European price, Mercedes-Benz also took the lead in exposing the camouflage test photos of the EQS SUV and the fixed photos of the interior space by introducing the new battery production base in Alabama, USA; Mercedes-Benz specifically mentioned in the news content that the third EQ pure electric work built with the chassis of the new generation of electric vehicles is the EQS SUV that locks the luxury large-scale travel market.
Mercedes-Benz currently only publishes EQS SUVs in various weather conditions, and includes snow, sand and other terrain environment test photos, the power configuration has not yet been disclosed, whether it will be the same as the EQS, equipped with a lithium battery pack that supports up to 200kW power, 108kWh, and the introduction of rear drive (rear axle single motor), four-wheel drive (front and rear axle each 1 motor) and other configurations, there is still to be further revealed by Mercedes-EQ.
The interior of the carroom is actually familiar, that is, the contemporary EQ family style, the high-end model standard with a curved three-screen hyperscreen system, including a 12.3-inch driver's seat digital instrument and a 12.3-inch semi-driver's touch screen, with a 17.7-inch center console touch screen in the center. Echoing the name of the flagship combat power, the S word, the rear space naturally has excellent comfort and texture, so the MBUX rear seat system is naturally not less.
In addition, the original factory news materials also mentioned that the owner can be separately selected with the third row of seats, but the product setting should be in response to different market needs, and there is a corresponding configuration plan, it is estimated that after the original factory is revealed on April 19, there will be more details to reveal, when the domestic time to be imported, it should be necessary to make a distinction with the version of Mercedes-Maybach after that, to avoid too much overlapping coverage of the product.
