The name
The new naming convention for MB electrics (confusing, but simpler)
EQS…and then specify bodystyle
This has the same platform and wheelbase as the sedan
But obviously taller and larger
Not an electric GLS
This may be the S version, but it’s not an electric GLS
This is about 4 inches smaller than GLS
Also has OPTIONAL 3rd row
So it’s more GLE in that way
The electric stuff
This is the 580
Dual motor and bigger power
540 hp to be precise
285 miles of range
Charge 10-80% in 30 min
Hood
Doesn’t open
Cuz there’s a mega air purifier in there
Air quality screen?
Little slot on front fender for washer fluid
Ambient light
Best in the biz
Multi colors
Animations
No one else is even close
Fingerprint reader
Driver profiles
Sliders
Sunroof
Volume
I dinged the VWs for this, but here it works better

Since it’s all about the screen

Huge trunk space

More like sunroofS
Wheels
Aero built in to max range
Rear wheels steer as std
Makes it feel smaller and more maneuverable

No grille, but a giant slab
Covered in little stars…kinda cheesy but i vibe
Door handles
Recessed into body
Deploy and have little click

Awesome interior - and great to use - Loving it!

[@Fluterra]

These US spec cars are odd - 580 with the hyper screen, rear seat heating but no rear seat temp controls?!
