Video Summary
Here's a summary of the YouTube video about the electric Mercedes EQS:- The EQS is the first electric Mercedes to be built on proper EV architecture.
- This car is a big luxury four-door sedan, designed for both front and rear-seat passengers.
- It's a rival to the Mercedes S-Class.
- Exterior styling can be underwhelming, appearing as a bit of a “blob.”
- The car has excellent aerodynamics.
- It features a monster range and uses a 107 kilowatt-hour battery; real-world range is likely north of 400 miles.
- The car has a boot space of 610 litres and 1770 litres when the seats are down.
- Interior is a sight to behold, with premium materials never seen before in an electric car; the leather is from soft cows.
- This EQS has an excellent steering wheel, and has “the most premium-feeling electric car interior we've ever seen”.
- There is the three-screen Hyperscreen, while you do need tech skill to understand the customization options.
- The car lacks manual climate control, and has touchscreen buttons, that are described as “design over functionality.”
- There is an option for different electric drive sounds.
- Rear seats are comfortable but have limited manual control adjustments.
- The rear-wheel steering helps maneuvering, and can be turned as much as 10 degrees.
- The EQS includes features with an excellent degree of precision.
- Standard on all EQS models is an over-the-air update capability.
- One optional paint treatment is a two-tone treatment where the top of the vehicle is black, and the body color is silver.
