Video Summary
The 2024 Mercedes-Benz EQS580 SUV, starting at RM700,000 in Malaysia, is surprisingly affordable compared to similar vehicles.It is comfortable, decent to drive, and can seat seven adults.
Claims of over 600 km on a single charge are unrealistic in real-world conditions.
Compared to the Mercedes-Benz GLS, this car is cheaper in Malaysia; normally, it's more expensive. It could cost 40% more in other markets.
The EQS SUV costs the same as a Bentley Bentayga in the UK but double the price in Malaysia.
It uses a dedicated EV platform, but uses the slightly outdated 400V electrical architecture.
The EQS sedan is manufactured in Germany, assembled in Malaysia, but this SUV comes from the USA.
Cooper tyres come with the car, which the reviewer does not like, considering it does not benefit a high-end luxury vehicle.
The SUV’s styling has been a particular look for quite some time, which can be seen as a good or a bad thing, depending on the viewer.
It has a closed front grille with a Mercedes star radiating out from the center and a full-width LED light.
The car eschews traditional front fenders and features large panel gaps.
Standard features in Malaysia include massive 22-inch wheels.
Unlike the sedan's "soap bar" shape, the SUV looks better proportionally, though it can appear bloated from certain angles.
The EQS SUV shares the dashboard with the sedan.
Its full AMG line exterior is paired with an Electric Art package interior.
It includes the standard steering wheel rather than a sports model.
The interior boasts many rose-gold elements and a full-width hyper screen with three separate displays.
Wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto looks great on the screens.
Although impressive to show others, one of the displays doesn't do much otherwise.
Construction quality isn't great, with cheaper components present.
Though the seats are pretty comfortable, they aren’t as comfortable as an S-Class vehicle.
It has plenty of legroom and headroom, but the middle seat is not very comfortable.
It does come with rear seat entertainment screens and 4 USB-C chargers in the back, but the headrests for each seat do not offer great quality.
The trunk with all the seats up has almost 200 liters of space for luggage. It is very deep.
Due to the sloping aperture, cabin-size luggages cannot fit vertically. Also, there is no room for a charging cable below the floor.
The 580 version has a dual-motor all-wheel-drive system with 544 PS and 858 Nm of torque.
The acceleration is similar to a true-blue AMG vehicle and the sound dampening is fantastic.
Reaching 10-80% charge is only about 31 minutes.
The lane keep assist is not working very well, as well as lane assist and the steering control is a bit off.
This is where I've tested so so all in all it offers the luxurious electric power consumption I will just what the hey you
All the good things and everything this is one of the new
