The 2025 Mercedes-Benz EQS is the brand’s flagship electric model, available in both sedan and SUV forms. Representing the peak of Mercedes’ EQ lineup, it combines next-generation electric performance with the luxury, comfort, and technology that define the S-Class heritage. Offered in EQS 450+, EQS 580 4MATIC, and the performance-focused AMG EQS 53 4MATIC+ trims, the EQS lineup is designed to cater to a variety of preferences, whether for quiet daily comfort or dynamic high-speed capability. In Saudi Arabia, where demand for prestige and performance intersects with a growing interest in electric mobility, the EQS holds strong appeal.
The EQS 450+ is offered in both sedan and SUV body styles, featuring a single rear-mounted electric motor producing 360 hp. The sedan accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in about 6.2 seconds, while the SUV does it in roughly 6.5 seconds. It offers a class-leading WLTP range of up to 481 miles.
The EQS 580 4MATIC adds dual motors and all-wheel drive, delivering 536 hp and accelerating in 4.3 seconds for the sedan and 4.6 for the SUV. Range is up to 456 miles.
The AMG EQS 53 4MATIC+ produces up to 658 hp. With the AMG Dynamic Plus package, the sedan reaches 100 km/h in 3.8 seconds, and the SUV in 3.9. It still maintains a range of up to 378 miles.
Both the EQS sedan and SUV feature a “one-bow” design with smooth curves, flush surfaces, and a futuristic look. The sedan has a sleek, aerodynamic silhouette, while the SUV offers a taller stance with similar styling.
All models come with LED lighting, a black-panel grille, and full-width rear lights. AMG variants add sportier bumpers, larger wheels, and black accents for a more aggressive appearance.
The interior is luxurious, with leather upholstery, metal trims, and wood or carbon fiber finishes. A standout feature is the optional MBUX Hyperscreen—a curved glass panel stretching across the dash. Standard setups still include large digital displays.
Heated and ventilated power seats, ambient lighting, and multi-zone climate control enhance comfort. The SUV variant adds more cargo space and optional third-row seating, making it practical for families.
The EQS includes the latest MBUX system with AI learning, AR navigation, voice control, and OTA updates. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto come standard.
Driver assistance features include adaptive cruise control, lane keeping, emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, and a 360-degree camera. AMG models offer enhanced performance modes, sound design, and AMG Ride Control+ suspension for a dynamic experience.
As an EV, the EQS requires less maintenance than traditional vehicles—no oil changes, fewer moving parts, and less brake wear due to regeneration. This lowers long-term ownership costs in KSA.
Mercedes-Benz offers a 4-year or 400,000 km warranty. With growing EV service support across Saudi Arabia, the EQS is a reliable and forward-thinking luxury option.
In the high-end EV market, the EQS competes with Tesla’s Model S/X, BMW i7/iX, and Audi’s e-tron range. While Tesla offers quicker acceleration, the EQS excels in comfort, craftsmanship, and interface quality.
Compared to BMW, the EQS offers a smoother ride and unique screen tech. Against Audi’s e-trons, the EQS pushes further into electric luxury and innovation.
For KSA buyers who value luxury, refinement, and electric performance, the EQS is a standout choice.
