2022 Mercedes EQS 450+ Review

[@danielmeans4415]

I have owned my EQS for 2months love the car ….great driving car over 350 miles per charge

[@steveclifford5227]

How do you charge at home? Do you need an electrician to set up a whole electric setup? I’m getting one soon but am confused.

[@danielmeans4415]

@@steveclifford5227 you need to have 220 and plug you need an electrician… charge point is expensive but I think it is worth it…

[@steveclifford5227]

Daniel Means By charge point, do you mean buying a Mercedes Wallbox, i think it’s around $1500? And also, in USA, all outlets are 110/120 so how would i get 220? I’m sorry if these questions are dumb.

[@danielmeans4415]

@@steveclifford5227 you need an electrician for the install also need 50amp breaker … 1500 is about right for price for a charge point wall charger.. once it gets installed it is really easy

[@chadhaire1711]

350 miles in warm weather only 140 in cold weather--stop spreading BS

[@laloajuria4678]

0:38 common mistake. charging rate is kw, not kwh. thats capacity.

[@rupertpearce9158]

Solid review. Fit and finish on the Mercedes is off course top notch. Exciting to see all these new EV’s coming out.

[@chadhaire1711]

fake review....LOL..takes it out for 5 minutes.....350 mile in the heat...only 140 miles in the cold......

[@ayushmalpeddi2793]

I think the EPA has to redesign their range test ASAP. Currently they offer 2 different cycles and allow manufactures to rate their own cars for any number at or under what the car achieved on the test. Instead, there should only be one test that all manufactures use and whatever the car achieves is what they should rate the range. Tesla likes to promise max possible range, other companies take the max possible range and reduce it 10 all the way to 20% in some cases and advertise that as their range.

[@Chrisb8s]

So nice. Why would anyone buy a lucid when this exists on the lot in Gilbert right now ?

[@laloajuria4678]

The same people who have eyes....

Gjeebs gett’n paid - good for you buddy 👊🏻

[@BlackoutTinting]

We just had one of these come through the shop. Didn't get to test drive but we weren't thrilled with the look. Very nice entry into the EVs though! Thanks for showing it to us in detail.

[@paulspitsen3581]

Another very nice review of what would appear to be a high quality EV. You looked a little stressed while driving probably due to the high cost of the EV.

[@coboarders]

He drove a Model S Plaid, so I doubt this holds anything to that in performance or cost. More likely the threat of a good review from the dealership representative off camera ;)

[@AUav8r05]

Probably had to do with the salesman next to him. Great review!

[@GraysonA]

The pop out in the rear seat is to hold a pen. If you push it again, 2 cup holders pop out.

[@patrickiocunningham]

glad to have come across your review. thanks. thanks Mercedes Benz for the quality. Suspension eats the road and the power is there. perfect.

[@lenimbery7038]

Beautiful car. I can take some comfort in that it's not quite as fast as my Model Y SR even!

[@mdrudholm]

Cool car. Maybe I'll go check one out. A point about terminology though, a quantity of electricity would be energy, measured in kilowatt-hours (kWh). The *rate* at which energy is dispensed is power. Electric power is usually measured in kilowatts (kW). So a battery holds a quantity of kWh, while the rate at which you can charge a battery would be measured in kW. Or, to put it in ICE terms, the amount of gasoline can be measured in kWh, but the rate you burn it (or put it in the tank) can be measured in kW.

[@Gjeebs]

Thank you!

[@earlessroboticcat7102]

Why is the miles range so low? In Europe they’re 450-480 miles range

[@christophertilley4297]

I really like that car. Great review.

[@MaestroWenarto]

great review, first one with no hyper screen because the car I want is this one (no hyper screen) - thanks for the review

[@Gjeebs]

Glad you liked it!

[@RyanMoffitt]

I just watched the RS E-Tron GT video you did. When you said carmakers shouldn't release a car until range it about 300 miles, I couldn't help but think "unless the car is as sexy as the Audi."

[@Gjeebs]

Hahaha this is true

[@danielmartini3229]

animates rear wheel steering... YES!!!

[@bengals098558]

Once you go hyper screen you can't go back lol. The screen on here looks so small and incomplete compared to the 580 hyper screen.

[@windjunky]

Interesting car for sure. Seems super quiet in the cabin too, very nice

[@leaflover3497]

Really beautiful car - love the blue color. Way beyond my price range though.

[@phat_gunpla_etc]

but how the charging for the mercedes ev cars? telsa you can supercharge or home charging

[@abricot68]

An interior with old-fashioned look like Europe

[@darriontunstall3708]

Great video!! I’m saving up for my all electric Mercedes eqs or all electric Chevy Silverado, can you do a review on the all electric Chevy Silverado when it comes to out? I have cerebral palsy I use a walker and wheelchair

[@davehaller6477]

Gotta have the hyperscreen. Nobody does a better interior than Mercedes.

[@alanmay7929]

The hyperscreen is way too overkill.

[@coboarders]

This is a real matter of taste it seems. Way too much going on inside that car already.

[@dave11686]

Well done review

[@kentgabriel3572]

gentle second press on that thing you weren't sure about in the armrest of the backseat lets that piece out further revealing cup holders....jfyi

[@christophertilley4297]

You’re a much better reviewer than you are at destructive analysis 😂

[@iPigee]

Well done! So are you ready to leave Tesla for one?

[@Gjeebs]

If I was spending 100k on a car I wouldn't get this. Maybe a Tacan GTS Sport Turismo

[@iPigee]

@@Gjeebs dang!!! 200k price tag.

[@jdmoney1000]

The driver lane assist distronic extended restart in stop and go traffic (auto pilot) is better than Tesla in some ways... Very impressed so far. Yes, I own one of these.... and traded my Model 3 performance for it... And it even came with a steering wheel! The trolls whining about the exterior looks are the same puppets that used to dis the Tesla model 3 by saying it looked like a Dodge Neon... Move on already!

[@guyg2005]

Should I trade in my 2022 Y for the 450+EQS? Thanks for your review.

[@Gjeebs]

I personally wouldn’t do that but I’m not you. Do whatever you want!

[@bengals098558]

I would but I'm not a tesla guy, heck I'm not even an mercedes guy but this eqs is the best EV I have seen.

[@TheMeatSlab]

Any self driving features?

[@jdmoney1000]

Yes!!!! on par or better than Tesla... I've owned both.... currently own the 450+

[@CryptoJoeTrading]

Great review Gjeebs! Its a nice car but I'd buy a Plaid instead

[@Gjeebs]

Yea if I was spending my own money I agree.

[@alanmay7929]

Lol... this is not even the AMG version

[@Robin-es3os]

Gjeebs if they Mercedes is forcing you to say things that you know won’t happen, just say “this car has nice vents”.

[@alanmay7929]

Lol....

[@physicslawyer9845]

That thing in the back is to hold a pen. The car you are in is pretty low optioned

[@KitsTech]

Well there’s a speed limit for a reason. Tesla used the speed limit to give you the estimated miles per charge. Same thing with ICE cars, the more your flow it, with other conditions, you don’t get what you expect 😂

[@parsnips800]

Great car. I do wonder why these legacy car manufacturers don't get together and invest in a (reliable) charging network. Most EV's are great now and batteries are only going to get better, but the charging network is what let's every EV down. Certainly in the UK, chargers are so hit and miss unless you have a Tesla .

[@laloajuria4678]

Imagine pulling up in your EQS to the electrify America station outside of Walmart at 9:00 p.m. for a road trip 😂😂😂

[@alanmay7929]

Lol..... The charging infrastructure is actually growing in Germany for example they are even taking steps further to accommodate all EVs as possible.

[@alanmay7929]

@@laloajuria4678 what's the problem?! Lol.... some mals offers free charging.

I just noticed you are at Mercedes Benz of Gilbert. I am a sales associate at that dealership. Let me know if you need any assistance with future videos and test drives. 👍🏼

[@AeroDude73]

“Well upholstered car” ?? You mean Well APPOINTED car? (3+ minutes in)

No I meant what I said

@@coboarders Not surprising. That's who has the money.

[@foobar5853]

Honestly I expected more from Mercedes. The only thing I like about this car is the interior materials. The performance, technology, price, and general appearance are a huge disappointment. So ugly.

[@alanmay7929]

Nonsense, vehicles aren't just about performance, its a mercedes, made to drive very comfortably way better than other vehicles, mercedes on the Autobahn in Germany are like private jets on wheels super fast and comfortable.

[@alanmay7929]

I've seen a German business that tested a tesla model s but electric simply doesn't cut it, he had to get a mercedes sclass diesel for constant road trips.

[@chaowang6917]

tbh those graphic makes me think about like 80s,90s stuff. its just way more useless stuff there. For any software, the UI should be as much clean abd simple as possible instead of something like this. This isnt the future

[@coboarders]

Cool to see more EVs coming out, but at a $100k+ price point, with less performance and charging than the MY, they still have a way to go. I do like some of the look of the exterior a bit, and the interior trim is a step up from the MY. However, WAAAAAAY too many buttons for my taste. Keep it simple. PS - You look like you have a gun to your head in this review. ;)

[@USNEM]

You can't compare this car to a shit Tesla. This screams quality, proper QA, proper paint, quality driving etc. Tesla's are like Fisher Price toys.
