The 2024 Mercedes-Benz EQS is a battery-electric sedan with RWD and seating for 5. It belongs to the V297 generation. The 450+ is the version described here, and the figures below refer to that configuration unless noted otherwise.
Performance
The featured 450+ version develops 360 hp and 568 Nm (419 lb-ft) of torque. Its listed 0-100 km/h time is 5.6 seconds, which is decisively quick for everyday road use. Top speed is listed at 210 km/h (130 mph). Its power output is about 26% below the peer average. Its 0-100 km/h time is about 17% slower than the peer average. The figures establish its straight-line performance on paper, but they do not substitute for measured braking, handling or ride-quality tests.
Battery, range and charging
Battery capacity is listed at 118.0 kWh. The recorded electric range is 784 km (487 miles). Listed energy or fuel consumption is 16.0 kWh/100km. Maximum DC charging power is 200 kW. Its listed range is about 34% above the peer average. Real-world range and charging speed still depend on temperature, speed, wheel choice, battery state and the conditions of the test cycle.
Dimensions and practicality
Its exterior dimensions are 5,223 mm (205.6 in) in length, 1,926 mm (75.8 in) in width, and 1,512 mm (59.5 in) in height, while the wheelbase measures 3,210 mm (126.4 in). Cargo capacity is listed at 610 litres (21.5 cu ft), expanding to 1,770 litres (62.5 cu ft) with the rear seats folded. The cabin is configured for 5 occupants. Listed curb weight is 2,520 kg (5,556 lb). The recorded braked towing capacity is 750 kg (1,653 lb). That cargo volume is about 25% above the peer average. The measurements are useful for comparison, although seat comfort, access and the shape of the load area still need to be judged in person.
The model range
The recorded line-up consists of 450+ and 580 4MATIC. Across the range, the specifications span 360 hp to 516 hp, 4.3 s to 5.6 s, and 676 km to 784 km, while listed starting prices run from $104,400-$125,950. Drivetrain, battery or engine choice, wheels and market equipment can all change the final figures, so the version table should be used when choosing between them.
In perspective
Compared with nearby battery-electric sedan models from the same period, the 2024 Mercedes-Benz EQS is strongest on range and cargo capacity, while towing capacity and price stand out as the principal numerical compromise. That conclusion is drawn from the recorded specifications rather than a road test. A final choice should also account for local pricing, equipment, comfort and a test drive.
