Really liked the Electric Art base model. With some added features such the 21 inch wheels,the air suspension and side steps, makes it a really attractive car. Also the 450km of range looked impressive. Hope you enjoyed your visit to Portugal! :D
As always really good video from Thomas. Just watched also the review of the new vw id7. I just find the EQ Line and especially this Electric Van especially ugly - even Chinese cars are far more attractive - a shame for Mercedes … but good review!
Thank you Thomas. as usual, a great thorough review. Hate the ambient lighting. With all those customizations on the screen, is there just an OFF, lol? Reminds me of a rented limo in high school. Great SUV though and E size seems right as opposed to the EQS, but obviously based on your needs.
Hi I like your videos My only problem is there isn't always a summary at the videos , and that's the most important part ! please add a summary at the end of each video if possible , thanks !
I do quite like the styling of this one especially without the AMG-line, and in my book one big upside it has over the more expensive EQS SUV is for whatever reason, Mercedes allows you to get ventilated seats in the EQE and EQE SUV if you go for Artico leatherette. In their more expensive models you have to get full leather for seat ventilation, which makes no sense to me.
Compares favourably with the iX - much better looking (not hard), better range and more trunk space. But the hyperscreen is ridiculous, the only reason is MB to say it has more inches than BMW and Tesla. Shame the charging port is on the right. If you come from a hybrid with left port then you have to hope your home cable is long enough.
Thanks for the video Thomas. Personally I like the SUV version more than the sedan. Do you by chance remember what type of tires were provided for the 21" and 19" wheels? I could spot that the 21" wheels had Goodyears and the 19" Continentals, but I couldn't spot the type.
I have been driving EQC for the last three years and I am struggling with Mercedes E and S range of EQ cars. They all look similar with only minor differences but considerably more expensive as you go from each class. I haven't seen enough to justify choosing and E or S over C unless you are really worried about the drive tech and promised range. In my opinion they should make distinct differences between the classes like it was in the good old days.
At last, you have a review of the EQE SUV. I've been waiting since you reviewed Genesis GV70 Electrify the previous year. Thomas, now please tell me which one you would choose, EQE or GV70? And tell me why? Thank you😉, Thomas.
It's insane that we have to have everything reset at each start just because the manufacturers would cheat otherwise. On the other hand, is it cheating if the car should be driven in a more eco friendly mode? And all these chimes for speeding etc that has to be there and then they "fix it" with a button to silence it and that is okay?! Idiocy. For some reason my year-old BMW iX1 doesn't chime when speeding and retains the adaptive recouperation setting between starts. Thank god.
Is Taycan CT better than EQE SUV 43? I’m thinking of moving to electric car. Hard to chose! I have GLB35 family car for now. Please help recommend taycan CT or EQE SUV 43?
I would buy this one. It's more versatile like your GLB. and more reliable. Both offer the same luxury. And if I'm not mistaken, it has better range/economy. Make sure it has a heatpump. They are going to introduce it if they haven't already.
I hate the chime. Why is that a safety feature in the first place… It was always a thing in the asian vehicles that everything beeps and chimes and makes sounds, always really appreciated the german vehicles who just let you do your thing. Shame that the law is ruining it for no real reason.
The generally very disadvantageous body shape of the pudgy tank looks much more harmonious than that of the e-limousines, at least visually. However, beautiful is still different. Unfortunately, the trunk is also too small to offer an alternative to the sedan. The absolute knockout criterion is the interior, though. Visually, I still like Mercedes' interior much better than the competition, but the really lousy steering wheel and a lack of high-quality controls that can be operated blindly even while driving then clearly outweigh the vehicle's weaknesses. I want a vehicle that gives me pleasure. That one would frustrate me again with every drive. Mercedes remains unbuyable.
For what these things cost and consume, I think the battery is just too small. Yes, batteries are horrible for the environment no matter how you love your greenwashing, but come on, it's supposed to be a premium vehicle. Don't let it be outperformed by the bottom of the barrel Tesla.
Ich hatte dich vor paar Tagen gefragt, ob der Hyperscreen 3D Display (Fahrerdisplay) hat. Danke für Deine schnelle Antwort erst einmal. Habe noch mal bei Mercedes gefragt. Ist leider nicht möglich den HS mit 3 D auszuliefern auch nicht als Option. Nur das Display der S Klasse und jetzt auch für EQE und EQS haben die Option bei der „kleinen“ Variante des Displays leider. Glaube das werde ich nehmen. Der HS ist schön aber er ist so schräg, vor allem das Display vor einem. Und so viel Mehrwert gibt es da nicht. Klar Nachts bestimmt toll. Ich überlege noch. Zum Glück Leasing immer nur 1 Jahr.

Recent Mercedes design really sucks!! How is it that Hyundai/KIA are designing some of the best looking cars while Merc and BMW are getting inspiration from potatoes...🥴😵💫🤑🤮
Thomas I almost always agree with you, but the speeding chime is not annoying, and we should not care about when the poor "driver is annoyed" xD Come on, who cares? 40 is 40, so drive 40 or less. Why look for an excuse?
This grey colour was horrible, it should be like Skodas Mamba Green i would buy it.❤ I would like the hyperscreen but did not like on the right side i could not do anything on it if i am alone in the car. It was okey on the outside but hoped it would looked cooler. I Will always love Mercedes, comparing this to boring Tesla with just one little screen and bad seats not good for me anyway. Thomas you do a fantastic video as always, take care🤘
The passenger screen is absolutely useless. Buy instead a pair of AR glasses and the passenger will have a giant private screen at his disposal. For less than the price of the option at Mercedes
I've watched and enjoyed this video plus the other video you made 53 AMG vs 500 4Matic AMG line. I'm attracted to the EQE model, especially the AMG53 model. We looked at the EQS but found it much too large for European roads. However, having checked several online sites it's been impossible to locate an EQE SUV. On the official Mercedes webpage, only an AMG 43 is listed. ( delivery time??? ) Do you know of any reason ( apart from the so-called chip shortage ) why EQE SUVs are in such short supply?
Hallo. Weißt Du ob der Hyperscreen beim EQE immer den 3 D Fahrer Bildschirm dabei hat? Oder gibt es den nur als einzelnen Bildschirm? Im Konfigurator ist er verfügbar jedoch nicht in Zusammenhang mit dem Hyperscreen. Nur ich kann mir nicht vorstellen, dass für 8150 Euro kein 3 D dabei sein soll im linken Bildschirm des HS. LG aus Hamburg.
Nice review, again. Not a fan of MB design at all but the car seems nice still. The only thing I'd say is - the designers that put "non-integrated" cockpit panels (odometers, central navigation) that look like a carpenter had 5 minutes to cut and afix some flat board into the car (no matter the brand) should be sent to jail. It's soooo ugly and looks just like a cheap and fast solution. Nothing premium about it. And while about it, I don't appreciate oversized glossy screens either. It makes screens dirty and touch functions are bad for safety anyway. "Give me my volume button back!"
Thomas you have stopped showing the base models in your reviews. On colours I think the grey looks great but it would be too expensive for e and I am really disappointed in Mercedes for still using animal cruelty materials when most Chinese car manufacturers are all Vegan interiors as is Tesla
Interior is beautiful but the exterior looks like it was designed for grandparents. I don't see the "sportiness" of the exterior whatsoever. Excellent grandpa or grandma SUV though. Nonetheless, great video and thank you for uploading/showing us the new EQE SUV.
One of these has just burned down a million dollar house in the states after leaving it parked in their garage!!!!! Pity that feature isn't mentioned by Mercedes? You know the one where these things spontaneously combust at any moment!!!!!!!
Thank you very much for your interest in this topic. I also bought cars with animal skin leather seats before I did my research and got to know the industry. The most important thing is: With today's modern materials, you have nothing to lose, just to gain. You achieve the same kind of luxury and comfort or even better while having the same or better durability with less impact on humans, animals and the environment. You can use fabric/cloth, microfibre or leatherette. They can be made from recyclables (e.g. from PET-bottles or old fishing nets) or even from plant-based materials (like Pinatex from pineapple leaves or Desertex from cactus fibre or the mixed-plant-based Mirum). Or the Polestar 3 e.g. is using pine oil. And even if you still create a leatherette seat the classic way with petroleum base without a recycling share, the amount of oil being used for that is very little in comparison to how much oil is used for other car parts or how much oil is burned for fuel or heating. By ditching animal skin leather from car interiors, the amount of emissions (CO2e) is reduced by 85 (!) % (www.press.bmwgroup.com/africa-dom-easteurope/article/detail/T0403389EN/on-the-market-from-2023:-bmw-and-mini-models-with-vegan-interiors?language=en). So it is the most important thing you can do to make car interiors more sustainable.

Actually the EQE SUV is a solid looking car with good traits like good rear passenger space, while the EQE sedan imo is a failed horrendously looking product with a tiny trunk and barely any rear passenger head room. I wouldn't buy the EQE sedan if it were half priced, but am seriously considering the EQE SUV, although im not an SUV type of guy.
The design of the EQ range has a lot of skeptics, but I do think that this "boring", round design will age better than the sharp angles & broken lines of BMW, or even Audi. Mercedes curves feel organic - organic and boring is actually good in the long run.
@@Kenyon712 Mostly a matter of taste I presume - I've seen both the i7 and EQS in my neighborhood (Amsterdam Oud-Zuid), and the curvy lines of the EQS are elegant and attractive, while the i7 feels like a chinese Rolls-Royce ripoff - but again, matter of taste :)
Good review, thank you! Here goes my problem with Mercedes EVs: they've lost focus. It's so overengineered it does not make any sense. The door handles would start to annoy you after one month, and the hyperscreen for 8k EUR? WHY? To look at your pet's picture while driving? LOL. So, my problem with them is, that EQE SUV with similar figures as GLE SUV Coupe (horsepower, trim line etc.) is so friggin expensive! In Czechia, GLE SUV Coupe with a parking camera etc. would set you back a little over 2,5 mil CZK (110k EUR), whereas this blob on wheels would be 3,5 mil CZK. Who opts to buy it is entirely beyond my comprehension, especially if the sunroof cannot be used at higher speeds due to annoying sound! BTW, what is a higher speed? This car cannot go fast, so is it speeds over 100 km/h? If so, the designers must be stripped of their Christmas bonuses for at least five years. - Regarding the colours: In dark single tones, the car looks awful. The blue was hideous on this one, sorry to say.
@@pwelele the s might be fine, but their suvs look like blobs and the 3 is showing its age design wise. They also all look the same because there’s no customization
Okay I just have to say it. Why does a upscale brand like this think that pink, blue and green interior lights look classy? The interior of all modern Mercedes look like a neon nightmare Reno casino from the 1980's. Just awful. Is the backseat a waterbed?
Mercedes started this terrible ambient lighting trend and make their interiors look like cheap strip club at night. It's for females and social media influencers/sport players.
You are aware that you can change the color, right? I have mine set at a yellow/gold color, which I prefer. I suspect the reviewers may set them to very bright colors because of the video-cameras.
EQS SUV is way longer and 10cm wider between rear wheel arches. Which I prefer. Boring from the outside, sure. Might as well get a Rivian or Hummer SUV. This EQE is much smaller though, barely longer than a Model Y when you look at the percentages. I bought this thing has more luggage room than a non-hybrid E-Class Estate which is longer and wider (no rear steer). SUV used to be about sport and utility. Both are wearing off.
Every single modern Mercedes look exactly the same It's a joke but they still sell due to their badge and past image. If a Japanese/Korean sold cars that looked like modern Mercs, no-one will look at them twice
@@rg6982 that hyperbolic statement only makes you less credible - ‘exactly the same’? 😂 The EQE looks nothing like the 2023 E-class or the upcoming redesigned E-class; the S-class looks nothing like the EQS; this vehicle looks nothing like the GLE; etc., etc. Clearly you aren’t a Benz fan, but no one really cares. By the way, no one does look at Japanese or Korean cars if you’ve not noticed.
I personally don’t like the side steps on ANY of the Mercedes SUVs. It may serve for aero purposes but on vehicles like the GLE 53/63 and GLC, it seems pointless based on their step in heights. If Mercedes did more power running boards that tuck away when not in use would seem more fitting for a luxury brand.
280mls or 450km is simply not a good enough range for the price you have to pay & all the pitfalls along the way !.....Hybrids are still the better option currently !
