Cruisin’ in Style: Mercedes EQE Business Saloon
It’s like the swanky cousin of the luxury EQS, and it’s about to make its grand debut. So, saddle up, and let’s take a ride through the juicy details.
Classy, Sassy, and Electric
First things first, let’s talk style. The EQE is all about “business avant-garde with progressive luxury.” It’s got that snazzy Mercedes-EQ vibe with one-bow lines and a cab-forward design, giving it an oh-so-sensual look. Smooth lines, sleek transitions – it’s all about that “seamless design” life. The wheels, sized between 19 to 21 inches, are like the icing on the cake, giving the EQE an athletic edge.
This ride might be a bit more compact than its EQS sibling, but it’s no slouch in the space department. There’s plenty of room for you and your mates. Think of it as the bigger, cooler version of the E-Class. More space, higher seating position, and a healthy 430-litre boot capacity. Plus, you get all the fancy interior bells and whistles from the EQS, like the MBUX Hyperscreen, automatic comfort doors, and rear-axle steering. It’s so quiet inside; it’s like you’re floating on a cloud.
Now, the heart of this electric beast – the battery. It’s packing a 90 kWh punch and can go up to a whopping 660 km on a single charge, according to the WLTP standards. And, as if that’s not enough, there are two variants on the menu when it hits the market: the EQE 350 with 215 kW and a high-performance model with around 500 kW. We’re talking some serious power moves!
Mercedes is all about keeping things fresh. Just like the EQS, the EQE can update its features through over-the-air updates. Wanna spice up your driving experience with some “Roaring Pulse” sound action? You got it. It’s like your car’s personal glow-up party.
Navigation with Electric Smarts
The EQE isn’t just a pretty face; it’s got brains too. Navigation with Electric Intelligence plans your route, including charging stops, based on real-time data. It even tells you if your battery can make it back home without a pit stop. Smart, right?
Mercedes-Benz is all about clean air inside the EQE. It’s got a fancy HEPA filter that traps everything from fine particles to pollen. Plus, it’s got activated charcoal to keep out nasty odours. The cherry on top? The optional pre-entry climate control to make sure the air inside is pristine even before you hop in.
Mercedes is going green with the EQE. They’re guaranteeing that the charging current comes from renewable sources, so you can feel good about juicing up your ride.
And now, the pièce de résistance – the MBUX Hyperscreen. It’s a jaw-dropping, curved screen that spans almost the entire dashboard. You’ve got three screens under one glass cover. Plus, your co-pilot gets their own 12.3-inch OLED display, and in Europe, they can enjoy dynamic content while on the move. It’s like having your own personal cinema, but don’t worry, the car’s got your back – if you’re getting too distracted, it’ll dim the screen for you.
Mercedes-Benz’s MBUX is a mind-reader. It adapts to your every need and serves up personalized suggestions for your comfort and entertainment. Plus, it’s got the zero layer, which always gives you the most important stuff right in your line of sight. Talk about staying ahead of the curve.
A Car That Wows
The EQE takes a page from its big bro, the EQS, when it comes to looks. The dominant blue and orange colour scheme screams “electric world,” and it can switch to Discreet mode for a more zen-like experience.
Safety is top of mind too. The latest driving assistance systems have got your back. There’s even a microsleep warning to keep you in check if you’re getting a little too comfy.
