Okay, so, let’s talk about this EQE 350+ SUV. I got my hands on one a few weeks ago, and I’ve been driving it around, getting a feel for it. I mean, it’s a Mercedes, so right off the bat, you know it’s going to be luxurious.
First thing I did was just sit in it, you know, soak it all in. The interior is crazy nice. It’s got all the bells and whistles you’d expect, and the materials just feel premium. It definitely screams “expensive car.”
Power and Performance
Next, I took it out on the road. This one’s got the single motor, rear-wheel drive setup. They say it gives you the best range, around 302 miles on a full charge. I haven’t tested that out exactly, but I’ve been driving it pretty normally, and the battery seems to last a good while. It’s got around 288 horsepower, which is plenty for daily driving, and it’s pretty zippy. I haven’t really been racing, but it has great acceleration for merging or overtaking.
I’ve also heard there is a dual-motor version with all-wheel drive and a performance AMG EQE that makes up to 677 horsepower. I would love to try those out sometime soon.
Price Tag
- EQE 350+ SUV: Starts around $75,445. This is the one I drove.
- EQE 350 4MATIC SUV: This is the all-wheel-drive version, a little more expensive.
- EQE 500 4MATIC SUV: The most powerful of the bunch, and the priciest.
- Used: If you’re looking to save some cash, I saw some used ones going for around $59,000.
Overall, it is a pretty sweet ride. I am still playing around with all the tech features, but so far I really like it. It is a solid choice if you want a luxury electric SUV. Oh, and you can also get it as a sedan if that is more your style, I saw prices starting at around $77,900 for those.
