Exactly, whats the point of listing the rules if you are going to break them. I learned nothing from this vudeo other than "which one feels quicker and what sounds they make".

You never floor it while driving to work if you need to get around a truck or a terrible driver

@@alexamayeobu9460 well thats fortunate.

@@Aflooos the EQS imo has better reliability than Audi TT 2007.

@@purwantiallan5089 my Audi TT from 2006 has done 245.000 km’s so far, still no signs of giving up. An electric car basically gives up at about 180.000 due to the battery needing to be replaced.

From my experience,when you go above 120km/h, the comsumption goes up about 10-15% depending on the car. But if you go above 150km/h, it's about 30% more. so if you go 160, i imagine these cars would do just over 200 miles of range.

yeah, good point, I won't drop that kind of cash on a car, just to drive like a geriatric...

A V8 twin turbo on the motorway in the UK will easily do 800km on a tank (60-65l).

@@alexandermenck6609 Bro I drive a C250 and it does 720km MAXIMUM with 65l tank. And I drive mostly highway and not sporty at all.

It's already having a lot of issues, with customers complaining

Dust particles. It would make my OCD kick off

In my MY22 Q7 (liquid gold powered), I find that the fingerprints wipe off VERY EASILY with even a dry microfibre cloth. The piano black is more of an issue due to how easily it scratches. (the screens don't scratch)

All modern cars are junk bar a few Japanese ones. Anyone in denial of this is NOT a mechanic or is easily conned by branding.

Exactly, one would think it makes sense but apparently not so much.

I’m afraid your journey ends here, traveler.

Both EQE and EQS are super ugly.

@@Jorsten YES! I love the normal old ICE mercedes design, but the EV's.. would never want one based on design.

@@Jorsten Make no mistake, the EQA and EQC are also hideous.

Was about to comment, that the I7 actually looks good next to the EQS :D

It's like comparing dog shit with cat shit. Saying cat shit is better is irrelevant because it's still just poo.

@@raybloodypurchase1941 like Tesla... no matter how much you polish it, is still turd. 💩💩

I agree, the sight of the I7 made me sick until I saw it in real life and it's actually very nice and looks grand/expensive

Agree. Having seen a few EQS on the road it looks more E-class when Merc were aiming for an EV S-class. The i7 is nice.

Yep. The rear wheel steering of the EQS looked like Benneton B195.

@@purwantiallan5089 That... is very specific.

Just like normal e class amg and e200

It's always like this

That grill at the front of the BMW makes it impossible to even look at!!!

It’s due too the range calculation method. If you have a less powerful engine, the calculated range is higher. However the aero and battery pack is the same. So if you were to drive both at the same time at the same speed, the range will be very similar.

​@@janikmertens9425normal e class amg...?....there are no amgs made anymore😂😂😂😂....not real ones...this is crap

That's exactly how Thomas and James from Throttle House described the 7 Series.

I belive you don't have a clue about the history of the bmw , look in the past , 40/50. Cars , huge grills

@@bratosin1 I was primarily making a joke about the comment that the design "has grown on me" thing 😅 I know about some of their old designs, 507 etc, but not all. This sounds like a fun thing to investigate 😂

@@abdur-jalil well it has grown to me.

@Abdur Rahman Jalil the bmw of 1930/1940 use to have huge grills , but the people doesn't know the history of the bmw , actually the small grills was a big change in the history of the bmw 80/90/2000 , now they just return at the original logo of the bmw ( just modern look)

Absolutely, that was also a 3 litre twin turbo Diesel. Even Audi said what he was attemping was impossible, however it did it. My 07 passat estate b6 2.0 TDI full of tools and ladders on the roof manages over 700 plus to a tank.

@@digitsictsolutions3790 DS DS3 66 plate / 1.6 diesel / 48L tank - 650 miles in one full and probably can get to 700(till will run out at all of diesel) - meanwhile, I’ve got another DS3 19 plate - 1.2petrol and can get 380(max) out a full tank ( maybe 400..)

I did the same with i7

Errrr no. They are both terrible, the BMW looks anything but elegant.

I am not a fan of EQ’s exterior. It’s ugly. I just want a CLA200 design but electric. That’s it.

@@schrodingerscat1863 BMW only care performance at the expense of reliabilities.

@@erickchandran CLA200 EV maybe costed $210.000.

@@purwantiallan5089 That has been a problem with BMW for some time now, way too many problems with their engines and other issues with their car designs. My last BMW a 335i was a pile of crap in my opinion. It had a whole laundry list of problems while I had it and most down to bad design.

Especially land rovers

The KIA Optima went around 30km with power still left when I had one for loan. Claimed is around 50-60.

and then measure MPG when there is no battery power.

​@@AndrewTSqI had one for almost 4 years. It would do 45-50km when new and about 40-45km in year 4. This is in Scotland. In Spain it would do closer to 50km in year 4. I now have a new MB c300e which has a claimed range of 110km. It does around 95-100 in Scottish summer and ~90km in Scottish "winter". In Spain in the summer, however it consistently does 115-120km and anything between 100 and 115 in the Spanish "winter". I was positively surprised by the c class.

BMW has been like this for over the past 20 years. Nearly all of their models have been hated at launch compared to their predecessors. And the 1 series and original M2 got a lot of hate from BMW fans when they were first released. Of course they all grew to become very popular models.

I've dropped BMW on their design 'capabilities' a very long time ago.

The EQS was never interesting.

If you can’t hit roads speed limit it’s over. Tortoise mode normally reduced power, which is fine. Most cars only need about 50kw to reach legal speeds so they have plenty to reduce from before hitting that.

I've found the merc fan

its weird how the electric guys claim electric is faster yet the electric cars are on the motorway getting overtaken by trucks limited to 56mph. ohh and considering how many Tesla are on UK roads, WHY is it they are the most frequently seen broken down car on our hard shoulders? well Tesla, Audi & BMW usually.

@@bigduphusaj162 the only thing weird is your approach to information and disinformation. Just get better at it already, it’s getting annoying.

​@@bigduphusaj162 I've never seen an EV broken down on the hard shoulder or whatever, always ICE cars. Not a fan of EVs myself (will only get one when I have to) but you're talking 💩

It's got character

The exterior is slowly growing on me like every current BMW model aside from the new 2 Series. The interior though is amazing.

@@snakeeyes9246 Yeah I’m a fan of most of the new models too. The M2 and the XM though? No.

@@CyclingGeo I think people who dislike them have never seen them in person.

@@MuppetsSh0w Yeah context really helps. The M2 is a great example. I personally really dislike it but I recently saw a photograph of one in red and not that atrocious baby blue-it actually doesn’t look that bad.

“Executive Pack - £11,025 “ is the most expensive I see in the configuration process.

they making it up as they go along now because theres still a bunch of people who get a kick out of financing something that they cannot afford full stop. because they ignore figures till the courts order them to pay it all back they dont care about another £11 grand. My mate has a spanking new base model 911 and was tapping me money for his wine for the fishing trip we done. He knows its all fake and will end in tears as he asked me not to tell anyone, he didnt want anyone else to know he was living paycheck to paycheck with a Porsche in his driveway. This is common too as i got told of a McLaren 720 owner i know needed to tap his dad and brother to take his wife and daughter on a 3day trip to IOM.

Yea you both can cry 😂

Yes, that's funny. Over 50 years ago, a stand-up comedian in my country emigrated to Germany because "we" did not think he was funny. "There" he was experienced as very funny and when he died he almost got a state funeral. So, now let's go to Germany, where these two are driving these cars. In the ICE alternative for these cars, on the German motorway ("Autobahn"), their drivers would be on the left-most lane only, drive 250 km/h as long as possible, blink their high beam lights when a slower car is in their way, slow down when there is a speed limit (e.g imposed to suppress noise towards a domestic area near that road), and as soon as the limit is lifted accelerate again. They might have removed the 250 km/h limit one way or another and chances are they want to race another car in their league. As these cars are expensive relative to modal, the drivers think they "own" the road and everybody has to move to the slower lane for them. It's the German form of "polite" that feels very aggressive when you did not grow up in that. E.g. in the wider "Ruhr" (river) area, there is a lot of wealth and you'll frequently be blinked by drivers of supercars trying to do 300 km/h or so. One of the airports in the Ruhr region, decades ago, had to modify the setup of their Air Traffic Control (ATC) radar system for low flying aircraft (like helicopters) because every time these supercars drove by, they popped up as a helicopter or so, in the ATC system and ATC agents tried to contact that thing. To no effect. Because the German motorways are rather crowded, have maintenance works that reduce the numbers of cars that can pas a section per minute, there are traffic jams frequently. Travel from, say, Hamburg (DE) to the Basel (CH) border - about 800 km - and you would be slowed down by some 20 road maintenance stretches, some of which come in clusters. Whatever speed your car can do, you will end up nearer Google Maps's assumption of 8 hours for the trip that probably applies the "German advised maximum speed of 130 km/h" than a lot faster. (Google should give me an option to set the maximum speed I want to drive, where allowed.) Experience with the AMG badge leads me to assuming the driver goes about as fast (aggressive in another culture) as possible, accelerates and slows down maybe every minute, and when possible tries to race another "fast" car. In the beginning of the video, the Wh/km of the AMG is some 3.6 times as bad as a Tesla on a hard day - both in an English polite driving style. There are lots of exceptions to this prejudice, though, where people peacefully drive these cars in a modal mode. It's a bit like trying to get as fast as possible as far as possible with a Bugatti Veyron. That at 400 km/h burns through its tank of fossil fuel in 12 minutes (= 80km/100 litres = 80km/1000 kWh = 12.5 kWh/km as 1 litre equals 10 kWh). Imagine you started with new tyres. So you fill the tank again and start your next stretch at 400 km/h. You cannot complete the 12 minutes because your tyres are wasted after 20 minutes at that speed.

Clean your eyes

LMFAO 🤣

Yep. But still 6.5/10 for me.

The rear screen of the BMW looked like from Daihatsu OFC-1 2007 Model.

Only £27,000 🤣

Probably you are rapper 😂, what an ugly style with metre screen. Oo yes, you can watch your serries 😂😂

I saw one today I'm sure it gets more but not sure what percentage of their claimed ranged.

screens are hideous. Just an excuse for these manufacturers to cut costs. Its just plastic, a nice metal button or knob would be nice with an integrated screen.

What! for the price of a small semi Oop North?

As a chauffeur, I would too, due to the proper limousine rear head room. (although I'd regret not having the wonderful boot space of the EQS)

You can’t afford one 😢

​​@@jeremybarfour-awuah4179 And the ICE vehicles are going to similar path too.

@@jeremybarfour-awuah4179 interesting, how do you know what I can and can’t afford?

Model S is lighter as it has way less kit and is way less luxurious. Adding luxury also adds weight and affects range.
