The new Mercedes-Benz EQE SUV will be released in Australia in Q3 2023, likely from around $150,000. Today, we sample 3 EQE SUV models: the EQE350+ SUV RWD, EQE350 SUV 4MATIC AWD and EQE500 SUV AWD 4MATIC.
Power for the EQE SUV ranges from 215kW to 300kW, while driving range falls between 375km for the forthcoming AMG EQE53 version all the way up to 590km for the longest-range RWD model.

If i had the money, this would be the ev i would go for, i feel the eqs suv is a bit too much for my liking, but this is perfect for me. Also i would probably buy the hyperscreen option.
I am warning you all. Please do not buy this car based on its outside beauty. They do not have spare parts in stock for this vehicle. If something bad like an electrical part is not working or some minor accident happens, you may keep your vehicle for months in workshops. My vehicle has been sitting in a workshop for the past 60 days since they do not have a spare part, and the funny thing is they do not have an ETA for that. I have knocked on all the doors and even wrote a letter to the CEO MB. They do not have customer sympathy; eventually, we will waste our hard-earned money. German company does not care about Americans. I suggest buying a TESLA even though they have issues with the car is better. They are customer friendly modern company.
We dont care if you like or dont like the look of the car, that’s subjective.
Happens to be the third EQE SUV review I've watched (??) and by far the best, most informative, least repetitive one from Mr Stevens. Nice one.
I'd sacrifice a few km of range to drive something that doesn't look like soap.
CNET to Car Confections to Chasing Cars. All Start with C 😅
From CarFection to Chasing Cars. This guy has some good experience.
not bad looking but a stupid car. ev nonsense. now super heavy and super expensive. yay! (NOT)
Any issues with the inconsistent braking as mentioned in some reviews on the EQE sedan?
Caption about power for 350 model is wrong, it should be 215KW I believe
Terrible looking car.
