The 2026 Mercedes-Benz EQS is a battery-electric sedan with AWD and seating for 5. It belongs to the V297 generation. The 580 4MATIC is the version described here, and the figures below refer to that configuration unless noted otherwise.
Performance
The featured 580 4MATIC version develops 544 hp and 858 Nm (633 lb-ft) of torque. Its listed 0-100 km/h time is 4.3 seconds, which is seriously quick. Top speed is listed at 210 km/h (130 mph). Its power output is about 9% above the peer average. Its 0-100 km/h time is about 8% quicker 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 686 km (426 miles). Listed energy or fuel consumption is 17.2 kWh/100km. Maximum DC charging power is 200 kW. Its listed range is about 17% 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 2,585 kg (5,699 lb). The recorded braked towing capacity is 750 kg (1,653 lb). That cargo volume is about 29% 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+, 580 4MATIC, and AMG 53. Across the range, the specifications span 360 hp to 658 hp, 3.4 s to 5.6 s, and 586 km to 806 km, while listed starting prices run from $106,400-$148,550. 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 2026 Mercedes-Benz EQS is strongest on cargo capacity and range, while price and towing capacity 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.
