Direct sales model just builds markups into the MSRP. If we use the Model X LR as a comparison, that went from $79,990 at the start of 2021 to $120,990 by June 2022 for a whopping $41k increase across the board with zero room for negotiation.

I like your ability to keep the topic moving without repetition of your actual points. When you do your cross country “races” , I would like to see an ICE or hybrid as a control for a reference for those of us with no actual EV experience. Best wishes for continued success, actually.😊

Hey Kyle, is a used $8000 Chevy Volt any good? PS: Nice review of the EQS! Excited to see them on the road!

[@TecnamTwin]

Yes it is. I just bought one for $10K and I love it! My wife does too since she keeps stealing it. Looks great, drives well, seats are comfy, and is surprisingly quick. I’ve also been able to work on it myself so not an overly complicated vehicle either. The hatchback trunk is also quite large and practical. I got two baby car seats in the rear so they can ride in Daddy’s spaceship. L-mode increases regen to give a sort of one-pedal driving experience and Sport mode measurably sharpens throttle response. Buy it. You won’t regret it.

[@peterjorgensen3]

[@jeffwilliams7351]

Much better looking than the EQS sedan!! I have test driven the EQS 450+ and was not impressed by the exterior looks, the too small and too high rear seats, and the ease of entry/exit. I did love the acceleration, rear wheel steering, and the front seats. I have an S550 with the AMG package now and feel it adds quite a lot to the appearance of both my car and this new EQS SUV. I am disappointed that MB USA has NOT yet added this vehicle to their website so we can see the various colors and option packages that will be available in the US. I have the 19" AMG wheels on mine and am hoping I can order smaller wheels with decent sidewalls on this vehicle. Thanks for this preliminary review - eagerly anticipating your usual thorough driving review!

Thanks for all the reviews you do. I watch them frequently and find them helpful. I'd like to suggest a little tech help as this is somewhat a Tech channel. Your Audio get's a bit hard to listen to for 50 min. A different placement of your wireless lav mic. to a lower position on your chest will dramatically improve your audio.(nipple level, center of chest). Audio is everything when we're listening to you for 50 min. Please take this as a friendly helpful suggestion vs some smart A.. trying to be a jerk. P.S.

I don't think this would apply because Mercedes is not Tesla. Maybe you should wait until crash ratings come out for the EQS SUV, but the EQS Sedan got a perfect score in Euro NCAP testing. And also, Mercedes is typically very strict about safety.

Great video guys! I own a MYP and my friends say that it’s not a luxury car, and it’s not. MB is about luxury and Tesla is about Technology. Tesla is iPhone of cars simple to use menu/settings etc, MB is the android phone of cars where only computer developers own cause they like to tweak settings etc. I prefer Tesla menus/infotainment better. Teslas charge 11kw/h on level 2 charging, disappointing that MB does only 9kw/h; Tesla recommended max charging limit is at 90%, MB @ 80% - hence tech vs luxury. I strongly believe that the traditional automakers are making EVs as a ‘we can do it too’ movement and their efficiencies are way behind.
