This is the all-new Mercedes EQS!
It’s Mercedes’ answer to the Tesla Model S and Porsche Taycan, and we think it might be one of the best-looking EVs we’ll see all year!
For starters, it more than looks the part… But then again, would you expect anything else from what's effectively an all-electric S-Class? What’s more, the performance stats are more than good enough. Powered by dual-electric motors, the EQS can deliver 523hp & 835Nm of torque! Not only that, but with an 108kWh battery pack hidden under the surface, it can also apparently provide you with 478 miles of range.
Ok so it may be a bit down compared to the Model S Plaid+, but let's face it, most electric cars will be! However, we think there’s one area where the EQS has the Tesla beat… The interior! Not only will you find high-quality materials throughout the cabin, up-front the dashboard is dominated by the Mercedes Hyperscreen, with a HUGE 18-inch touchscreen down the middle which is flanked by two 12-inch displays!
Surely the Hyperscreen is enough to convert you to an EV fanboy, right?! There's only one way to find out... Join Mat for this all-new review!

Hi Mat here. Come on tell me... Are you a Mercedes fan or a Tesla fan? Pick a side!
Tesla forever
Mercedes and Porsche are my favorite brands, so Mercedes all the way :D
if its between this and teslas.. teslas. the exterior is just horrendous
Hyundai, KIA
Merc any time
I have a hunch that those touch sensitive buttons are actually cheaper to make than the physical ones, but they present them as a cool feature.
Totally correct. Plus it shall appeal to the tech-savy generations - until they find out, that physical buttons are way better on the road, then make them pay extra for it ;-)
Very well pointed
Yup. Cheaper to make, and less likely to stop working. Just like an electric motor with 1 moving part is less likely to break than an ICE, with a million moving parts.
German cars ........Tesla cars all with same Parts from TAIWAN.
It just looks sooooo cheap!
Mat will literally get more views than Mercedes live video launch right now
true
I was watching that launch then came here
I confirm
No
Nearly double the views at the moment and ofcourse it's in favour of Mat.
I'm so glad it has cup holders, I can buy it now without any hesitation.
You can afford it?
I belive is called sarcasm.
Damn you are rich
Are you an american? Just a wild guess...
Is it even On Sale?
I can't imagine how big this car is until 15:47. Matt really looked like a kid standing next to this car.
That EQS is so smart it hit Matt on the head knowing that he was going to throw water in the charging port. 😂
Yeah
Mat is jealous it’s a German
Good
Mercedes Benz of course Mat
WHEN MATT THREW WATER IN PLUG I WAS FREAKING OUT!! ELECTRIED ON THE AIR🤣🤣🤣🤣
Mercedes officials must've been grinding their teeth when they saw Mat pour water around the charging port. Like, "Mat I swear to god if you break this car, we will break you."
True. but his sense of humour is a huge plus tho.
looks horrendous

Thorough car reviews without egos, great stuff and funny.
I used to have a car like this at uni in the late 80s. Yes. My Opel Manta GT Hatch back also had frameless windows. It did. And it was electric. You needed to hot wire it to start. And a Rick James cassette was stuck in the player for 2 years, which boost the overall electricity. A real Super Freak. All true.
One feature you missed with the door mirrors, you dont have to choose which mirror to adjust. You can look at the mirror you wanna adjust, then adjust it.
Yeah that's exactly what I was thinking. MKBHD showed that feature.😁
I saw it in MKBHDs video
@@tamaraanuradhawijesundara754 yes that's where i saw it too.

DRAG RACE WITH THE S CLASS

Drag race with Mat and Yanni running race
I'm genuinely impressed with the interiors and the drag coefficient, absolutely love those wood trims mixed with technological features like the screens and leds.
However the exteriors leave me kind of "meh", I wish they retained that luxury throwback design they've been using on the S-classes of the last decade, with the iconic hood adornment and chrome grill. I just hate that every car manufacturer making an EV has to exaggerate with the futuristic look, can't we just have a model S with Mercedes interiors?
So actually like the exterior of the model S??
@@maximiliankalff9096 Yeah, that's what I wrote in the last paragraph
@@seigma5340 Okay. I was just surprised. I don't know anyone actually liking it haha
This! I hate how every electric car has to look like a prop from a low budget sci fi novie.
@@maximiliankalff9096 anyone who can afford it, like it ;)
Didn't realise how long it was until I saw Mat stand beside it at the end. This thing is huge: 5216mm! Here in Sweden the standard garage size used to be 5100mm some decades ago...
I hate the fact, that MB is getting rid of all the buttons.
I love the feel of a quality aluminium buttons in my car.
Happy S213 owner.
Hear, hear! I truly despise this car
They will get rid of buttons and in a few years time they will reintroduce them as a new feature coupled with a lot of marketing
@@wavavoom I'm betting within a couple of years
Especially with this awful UX/UI.
It looks like a copy of Window Vista (2006)
I also hate that Matt says Mercs aren't as bad as VW's. Why? Is he not allowed to say Mercs are bad but VW let's him be honest or is it just more badge elitism? Tell us why they aren't as bad. Bad journalism.

What a camp smile after the doors auto-shut :-)
your Chanel is always the best. you have all the news. eqs is a great project
I definitely want to see a range test between the EQS, Model S, and a Taycan! The big 6 digit baddies of the EV world!
I mean the Taycan is not even comparable to the other two in terms of range. But likely blows them out of the water when it comes to driving dynamics and handling...
The Taycan has lower range but is by far the best drivers car, the EQS is the most luxurious and well made out of the 3 and the Tesla is the most practical.
Add in the Lucid Air and you will have a four car test
First talk about the EPA range the most conservative range test wltp is quite impossible to reach . Until you compare the EPA Vs epa range it won't be quite fair. I think in EPA terms the eqs is ~400miles or maybe less
@@Christs_Apologet lucid interior is fucking rough
Mat, I would love to see a comparison of the EQS vs the EQS SUV. Which rides better, which has better suspension etc. The reason is that many times the EQS has such low ground clearance, the bottom scrapes a bit due to it being a long wheelbase. My only apprehension of not diving in. But the EQS 580 Sedan vs the EQS 580 SUV (or like for like engines) would make a great video as I'm sure a lot of people would want to see this comparison - even though they are two different car segments.
When that hyper screen is up to date, this is the one
I'd like to see both a range test and a charge test. Also feel free to show off the autonomous parking feature in a busy parking lot. That feature is amazing.
Watch the German video from Carmaniac...about 450 km at 150km/h on German Autobahn...10 to 80% in 32 mins and 84kwh loaded in this time...and this values were measured at 0° Celsius. Will be much better in Summer temperature.
With lower speed it will be for sure 600km in real live.
@@josefv8708 8% to 80 % 32 mins
Don’t forget the drag test!!
@@klausb.3849 what about 1 -100% ?
@@Thawhid I don't know. But 8 % to 90 % 40 mins (at temp. 0 °C)
Please do a group comparison between the EQS, E Tron GT, Taycan and Model S. Adding a drag race to the comparison would be a superb add-on
You forgot to mention the i3😢
@@gameisgame3000 the i3 is an antique now. The newer cars are far better. It was good but underrated in it's time.
Yess Pleas!!
It’s would be a quiet one tho 🤫
Drag race with Lucid Air and Tesla Model S Plaid Plus.
Nobody buying a EQS is interested in drag race.....
I'm loving the interior and hating the exterior while wishing the performance matched the price tag. There's literally no reason it can't unless Mercedes is saving that for the ultra-expensive forthcoming AMG version. Mixed feelings
AMG version confirmed, Autotrader said so.
4:40 -- I am SO OVER touch-sensitive controls on the steering wheel already. Dammit. WHY are these in our future? Is it an option I can delete? Or is it just easier to not buy cars with them?
It's more reliable, they don't break over time. No mechanical parts
It's not just cars, don't like them on my headphones either. There's no practical value to touch-sensitive controls, they're just annoying.
The worst is if they have no feedback. It just feels so wrong
@@perspectiveflip Exactly - no tactile feedback means I won’t know if I’m actually using the control.
And touch sensitivity means that I could accidentally activate the control when I don’t want to, too. My car has just one touch-sensitive control - a radio volume slider - and it was easy to activate by mistake. Thankfully it can be turned off, which I did by the second day of owning the thing.
Matt just splashed some water into the charge port? My goodness!!!! Lol
Darwin Award Nominee 🏆
I was like wtf when I saw that. Mercedes engineers spewing right now. Hahaha
I'm sure its somewhat water resistant. Otherwise charging in the rain could be dangerous.
@@SoCalFreelance pretty sure that connector is not live at the time since its got its own data channel.
@@hagestad Pretty sure? Why even go there?
Love that Dacia face-mask mate! 😀

For the comedy yes. But other than that it's irritating as hell as you can't really hear him and didn't seem necessary.
Would love to see a drag race between the Mercedes and Tesla!
a Tesla would absolutely floor the EQS but I'd still love to see it
Hilarious review...thanks Matt!
Lovin' the DACIA mask, Mat! Cheers from Romania!
Kind of short looking at Matt's ears, but good product placement
Salut prietenas
Nice that the Review is coming so short after the premier
Yes
I’m guessing it’s prerecorded
Nice that the car is not such a disappointment like the E-Tron :D
I liked how you edited it so it looked like Mat was being driven down the Amalfi Coast, then it cuts back to the cabin interior and you can see a duel carriageway barrier out of the window. Ha! 👍😂
3:10 fun fact about the Mercedes door mirrors adjustment. It will adjust whatever mirror you look at while pressing the adjust button.

Omds yeah you're right 🤣🤣🤣
Love the interaction with Mark
5:48 ✨ Hey Merceydis ✨
I can't believe he didn't talk about one of the coolest thing in this car. There isn't a separate left and right mirror adjustments. It's just one and it adjusts the miror that your looking at at that moment using sensors. Mind blown...
The normal S class has it too tho
@@fouzisekkal5560 cool. Didn't knew that
Truly an incredible oversight 😂
Sooooo necessary... This feature will not impress you when, after the warranty runs out, YOU will pay to fix it every time it breaks, which will happen a lot.
@@tbn22 Oh, shut up. Only broke kids like you moan about stuff like this. If your complaint is cost of maintenance and service then you can't afford the car. Go buy a Corolla.
In the press conference they said that they’ll make a performance EQS with 750hp, awesoms
Tesla still beats it by a mile🤓
@@drdoomgoat38 But Mercedes has better build quality, comfort and looks by a mile :)
@@nuky_999 Tesla fanboys don't wanna hear it. Ever since the Porsche Taycan came out they just shit talk other electric cars.

As they say : ''Real beauty is inside''
They should watch the MKBHD tech review, there is a feature where it recognises to which mirror you are looking and changes that! Super cool
There is also a feature about the integrated 7 year old Samsung Tab 4 tablet in the back 😂

Wow, it’s so huge when you stand next to it at the end of the video. Definitely a real world range test, and proper drag race sould be in the works.
Yup drag race, that's defenitly the way to test a luxury boat. When I see a Rolls Royce the first thing that comes to my mind is drag strip and Nurburgring lap time
@@wailfaridi2070 I feel like Rolls Royce would do just fine at Nurburgring. Sure, it's not made for lap times, but it has crazy advanced suspensions which eliminates bodyroll and keeps it stable. And it has decent pick up for being a boat.
@@naseeb46 lmao no, it's heavy af, soft af suspension and a power curve optimised for comfort rather than performance. It would NOT do well on the Nurburgring
@@wailfaridi2070 I never said it would set lap records, I just said it would do fine at the Nurburgring.

When you test the EQS do a Motor Trend figure 8 for time and lateral Gs.
Then take it to a British race track with a loooong straightaway (or an old airport runway) and test for top speed.
Then try it out for drifting ability (;o) - or not.
Finally test out that trunk with rear seats laid down for "fooling around" and see if it is feasible with the trunk privacy tonneau cover on. Gives "privacy cover" a whole new meaning. .

Range test and group test against the model S, please! Those range tests are some of the most informative videos on these cars.
From german autobahn testing. Person driving it 150 km/h on autobahn in 2 celsius got a consumption of 25 kwh/100 km. 👌 Considering it was still winter, that person presumed that during sommer the consumption would be ~5 kwh lower.
Which is really unbelievable for an BEV. They really have done a great job.
Long mile test and the stick of truth test are the things i want you to do on your proper Review
Long mile test? So... range test!

I don't think it's a model S rival... This is just another segment altogether. This is luxury
Indeed. This car is 5.21 meters long. The EQE would be Model S rival (~4.95m)
It's what the model S claims to be though. And same price range. If the model S isn't a true luxury sedan, it shouldn't be a six figure car. Tesla either needs to step up the S or drop the price a lot. It'll be interesting to see what happens.
comparing to the plaid here. the long range I think you're right about.
@@banks8692 Yeah, the model S would have never have been considered a luxury sedan had it been an ICE car. Some people just think quality and comfort magically equals the performance of a car... The model S is simply a performance sedan with lots of tech. These days you are also basically paying premium money for a really dated, 9 year old exterior design.
"This is luxury"
This is mid-20th century opulence in it's most vulgar form. As opposed to modern "post-luxury" of Tesla and Lucid.
