  • MotoMan drives the first ever EV from Mercedes-Maybach, the @MercedesBenz Maybach EQS 680 SUV. Yes, based on the Mercedes EQS 580 SUV, yet one with a number of changes starting with more output, slight exterior changes and most importantly, a complete renovation of half the interior - which is where we learn the entire point of the Mercedes-Maybach EQS SUV in and around Vancouver Island, British Columbia . . .

      Yeah It doesn’t look bad but it kinda has a weird shape, the could’ve gave it the GLS Body, it would look amazing like that.

    "What does the aggregate of the disparate modes mean?" There's a sentence most reviewers won't come up with. Good idea to show MotoMan being Chauffeured as that's how this car will probably be used.

    I know that Maybach’s are very high end but externally they never had me drooling as compared to other high end brands like Bentley, RR, or to a lesser degree MB, BMW, Porsche and even Cadillac. They look kind of gaudy to me.

    • @MercOne

      There is nothing high end about a Cadillac.

    This car is absolutely amazing inside and out. You still get all of the luxury, amenities and prestige from a Rolls or Bentley but way less expensive.

    @leerosky Před 7 měsíci +4

    I agree with you saying it needs some personality on the exterior. I like their interior, always have, but there’s something missing outside. It is just too bland, maybe?! And, honestly, all these new MB electric cars are looking super similar. That’s my opinion, and as much I love cars, I’m not a professional car journalist 😁

    • @2bunphettered788
      @2bunphettered788 Před 7 měsíci +1

      You're right. Then again, knowing MB's enthusiasm for uniformity, that's probably idea. In which case, some of these EVs become too expensive and lack the distinction to justify a higher sticker price. 💰

  • @night5091
    @night5091 Před 7 měsíci +2

    If you put a sliding door on that, would look like a minivan. Very $ minivan at that. Who is going to buy these? Got me, but I know MB lots are overflowing with $117k-$130k ish or so models.

    Not for me. No need for an SUV. However I did drive a 22 Santa Fe and 21 Cadillac XT5 last year as rentals. Strangely I liked the Santa Fe better even with the underpowered naturally aspirated engine. It was smoother and quieter than the Cadillac.

  • @garyclark6747
    @garyclark6747 Před 7 měsíci +2

    I would add to the length of the wheelbase add some kilowatt hour capacity in the battery. That should keep a 3 to 4 hour round trip attainable. They need to increase the AC charging by roughly double and add another 20% charging ability to its DC profile. Then it’s rear occupant will be not pestered with the details or limitations of the trip. 13:20

    It´s the first SUV that i find somewhat luxurious. Seems very well executed and i´m sure it has to be a joy to drive or be driven. I rather be driven in a S-class Maybach but for an SUV is not a bad take overall. Scenery just stunning. love it.

    These ultra luxury models should use solid state batteries since scale isn’t as much a factor given the limited production.

    The Rolls Royce Spectre has convinced me that the first electric Maybach should have been the vision 6.

    6:32 mark...I didn''t like all the shaking of the car going over them train tracks. It's just as bad a my regular EQS SUV. Maybe my expectations are high... but the price will be high too. Air Suspension is too stiff.

    • @user-um3fx2vk8r
      @user-um3fx2vk8r Před 7 měsíci +1

      thats the body frame of the car absorbing the impact, if you pay attention his seat actually barely moves. the force is distributed away from the passenger...its not like the bump magically disappears lmao. and the suspension absorbed the majority of that bump 100%

  • @timothyburnside3229
    @timothyburnside3229 Před 7 měsíci

    If they get too much Premium, they get too close to Bentley and Aston Martin but if it too near the price of 580 why buy it, it is a tough issue but not for the Mega wealthy, they are buying the Bentley while the new money buys the Aston for performance!

    Yes. It needs to be a long wheelbase vehicle. At least as an option.
