Mercedes EQS SUV price, battery, specs, range, rivals, features


Mercedes has launched the EQS SUV in India at an introductory price of Rs 1.41 crore, just days after the introduction of the Maybach EQS SUV. This is the sixth EV in Mercedes’ Indian line-up and is positioned between the EQE SUV and the Maybach EQS SUV. Moreover, the EQS SUV will be locally assembled here in India, just like the EQS sedan. Mercedes says India is the first market outside the USA to produce the EQE SUV.

Mercedes EQS SUV exterior details

On the outside, the EQS SUV gets a blanked-off black panel grille that extends into the lower section of the front bumper, flanked by LED headlamps connected by a light bar running across the nose. The chrome-laden fascia of the Maybach version has been toned down on the standard EQS SUV. 

The rear end features the same overall design as the Maybach EQS SUV, with full-width LED tail-lamps. However, the rear bumper has been redesigned, and just like the front, features lesser chrome elements. The EQS SUV is 82mm shorter, 3mm wider, and 105mm lower than the Mercedes GLS.

The EQS SUV is available in a single, fully-loaded 580 4Matic spec, which offers features such as the Hyperscreen setup comprising a 12.3-inch instrument cluster, a 17.7-inch touchscreen infotainment system, and a 12.3-inch front passenger screen, all conjoined.

It also gets soft-close doors, puddle lamps, illuminated running boards, a 15-speaker Burmester sound system, five-zone climate control, dual 11.6-inch rear entertainment screens, ADAS Level 2, 9 airbags, and more. Mercedes is offering the EQS SUV in India with a standard 7-seat configuration. Mercedes is offering the EQS SUV with the AMG Line styling package that brings sportier bumpers and 21-inch alloy wheels to the mix.

Mercedes EQS SUV powertrain, specs and range

The EQS SUV comes equipped with a 122kWh battery powering the dual electric motor setup. Combined, the electric SUV produces 544hp and 858Nm of peak torque and offers all-wheel drive. It can sprint from 0-100kph in 4.7 seconds. The India-spec EQS 580 4Matic has an ARAI-certified range of 809km on a single charge. The battery supports up to 200kW DC fast charging.

At its introductory price, the EQS SUV is only Rs 2 lakh costlier than the EQE SUV (Rs 1.39 crore). Like the EQE SUV, the EQS SUV will face competition from models such as the BMW iX (Rs 1.4 crore) and the Audi Q8 e-tron (Rs 1.15 crore to Rs 1.27 crore). The company says that it has received over 50 bookings for the Maybach EQS launched earlier this month, while the EQS sedan has registered a sale of over 500 units in the country so far.
