Unleashing the Beast: 2024 Mercedes-AMG EQE SUV Ride & Drive Review

[@johnpoldo8817]

Nice review. Wish you demonstrated turning radius in the parking lot because I think it’s close to a Tesla model 3. U-turns and parallel parking with the EQ-series are so easy with rear wheel steering.

[@anthonybugge5220]

I got distracted by the guns 💪🏾

[@TotallyJoel]

A bunch of studs working for Munro lol

[@ModernDayMixtapes]

I watch every video Armin is in

[@jamesengland7461]

Having seen the burnout, I'll just say BEST BOSS EVER 😂

[@markplott4820]

see - Tesla model X PLAID.

[@timkeklinker]

hot freaking damn 90kWh and 230 miles of *EPA* range??? not even my Ioniq 5 at full blast is that inefficient jeeeeesus

[@markplott4820]

just get Tesla X PLAID - still the FASTEST SUV in the World.

[@johnpoldo8817]

We opted for the non-AMG version and getting over 375 mi in EQS 580.

[@KevinT3141]

Bugs me too, but realistically which gas-powered luxury vehicles are efficient? That's not what people buy them for.

[@lennyvalentin6485]

That thing weighs close to 3 tons, and there's so much gadgetry also. The air compressor for the suspension will drain some battery power, seems the roll bars are active also, so same thing there as well, and so on. And fatter motor inverters for more horsepower are also less efficient, and so on. (The motors themselves might be bigger than standard also, I'm not sure.)

[@lennyvalentin6485]

@@markplott4820 Nah. Tesla, while much better than they used to be still is not close to Mercedes build quality and luxury "feel", plus EQ series is so incredibly quiet on the inside. Model X just can't touch it (it does have a big nice ole frunk tho - just crazy that Mercedes can't fit one in with the gigantic snout that car has.) Plus, Elon has gone full-on crazy far right bigot lunatic these days, why would any sane person want to promote that?

[@PeteLenz]

Great job Armin! Great to see you enjoy the drive, too!

[@free_spirit1]

I really appreciate that mercedes had the guts to do the hyperscreen. The designer in me is frustrated that it is several smaller screens rather than one continuous one. And that obvious transition to a different material near the vents on the side. I understand why it's there, you don't want to have to drill big holes in your glass, but still. Couldn't they have solved that by changing the design just a bit? Regardless. Hats off to the guy or gal at mb who had the balls to say "yes, we're going to do that, one large hyperscreen". It's lit.

[@markplott4820]

Mercedes , still cant PRODUCE BEV profitably...........lol.

[@Alantj22]

Style over substance. Functionally it is a complete and hugely expensive mess. Tesla's single screen does more, does it better and is a fraction of the cost £2k Vs £20k if it fails.

[@PD55_]

Most buyers do not care about 0-60 quarter mile straight line speed, doughnuts or drifting maneuvers. Besides mechanicals, add in some projected insurance prices, 5-yr finance interest, projected depreciation and out-of-warranty repair costs. Let's also not forget stock buybacks and executive compensation which happens regardless of competitive global market performance. Legacy auto industry can only survive in shrinking politically protected domestic markets.

[@MrGlotzTV]

Without the fake noise it is extrremly quiet.

[@ivankuljis1780]

Typical Munro A Team____ _PUMP IT UP_

[@stephenwensley9328]

The good thing about about these Mercs is that they are shedding the retail value very quickly on the used market. You can get an 12 month old 4k miles EQE here in the UK for 40k, so would you buy a new Nissan Ariya or Renault Scenic when you can get a virtually new EQE for the same money

[@faithosadebe5293]

Are you sure about that,.. A mercs with hefty starting price is been shed to such amount.. Are you sure..

[@RSkala100]

Wow screen glare is excessive. Hope they have a solution.

[@JaakkoIsWatching]

Most other brands have a solution for that. Angle the screen upright and not like Mercedes does.

[@markplott4820]

3M filter.

[@calholli]

Yes.. The solution is to shut the shade on your moon roof. The "glare" is just mirroring the moon roof above them, because they have it open.

[@ConnectingODots]

During the intro it seemed like he woukd say "Let's look under the car" (lifts front of car off ground)

[@markplott4820]

Armin - AKA Colossus .

[@rudderboost4188]

You know the packaging is a disaster if they won't let you under the hood. For a 90K battery and power level the mileage is pathetic. We can get any number of vehicle reviews from journalists waxing about fake design knowledge; give us the engineering from Monroe we have come to expect!

[@markplott4820]

Mercedes SQUID game under the hood........lol.

[@johnpoldo8817]

While we love our EQS 580 partially due to terrific rear wheel steering, I agree better German engineering could have given us a frunk often use in our Tesla.

[@oldman1944]

That interior and screen is a nightmare. What were they thinking?

[@markplott4820]

3M

[@johnpoldo8817]

That hyperscreen is a dream. My spouse in passenger seat can change entertainment, route guidance, climate, massage, etc without reaching over to center screen.

[@calholli]

People keep talking about the glare.. It's just because the moon roof is open and the screen is angled up at the roof. So if you just shut the shade on the moon roof, it would have minimal glare.

[@KarstenHoefs]

2:35 here we have external ash tray 😂

[@rtz549]

How to get the hood to unlatch? Software locked?

[@darkdaw77]

the navigation system is so choppy compared to a Tesla. I know, this is a 3d vision"ish" but if Mercedes graphic card cant manage it, why not using the simole vertical view?

[@zodiacfml]

the styling suits this SUV better than the EQS. However, AMG badge and piano black in many places but no black roof?🙄 edit that: turns out the reflection dulls the black roof. not bad overall.

[@moreboost]

Great review I can tell you really enjoyed the SUV LOL! Please compare to the Tesla Model X Plaid...

[@LawpickingLocksmith]

No frunk, not even permission to open the bonnet? MB forcing to behave their clients? What were they thinking?

[@markplott4820]

MB is thinking , it CANT compete w/ TESLA.

[@PeteLenz]

I seriously doubt that more than 1% of Benz owners even know how to open the hood!

[@LawpickingLocksmith]

@@PeteLenz That is why they made a side door so the French can empty their bladder?

[@claudiuberta5688]

Wow, I've just laughed at the EPA range 🤦, how in the world they getting only 230 miles on a 123k car 🙄

[@CaneBTC]

You should actually be walking according to dead Joe. And vote for Kamala and PETA

[@CleanPowerAuto]

It’s designed for rich people who need to drive around town, but very quickly and in style 😂

[@CaneBTC]

@@CleanPowerAuto If you do go around quickly.. it has 50 mile range. It's a turd. I'd pay $10k for it though, if Mercedes includes 5 year free charging.

[@CleanPowerAuto]

@@CaneBTC did you expect something other than a turd from a company that makes turds for decades now?

[@TimSmith-db1iu]

My 24 Genesis gv70 gets about 215 miles if i drive it hard. 265 if i drive it in eco mode. however, genesis gives you 3 years of free charging through electrify america so it's not so bad. If I charge twice a week that's $8,640 worth if charging for 3 years. The charging cost the electrify america is typically $25-30.

[@ModernDayMixtapes]

Awesome car, awesome review, awesome host!

[@JjNorf]

Who the fuck are you kidding here man? CLICK BAIT ON THE BURNOUT? FOH.

[@CaneBTC]

Somehow it's better... still a bar of soap, but maybe better? Or am I coping?

[@jamesengland7461]

Merely not as ugly

My grandpa calls these "jelly beans" -- because they all look the same, just in different colors. lol.. I have a 2002 Acura MDX and this thing looks like they copied it directly. hahaha.. Just like every other 'crossover" out there. A bunch of jelly beans.. I do like it though. This design (the crossover) has proven to be the best of all worlds. (other than a truck).

[@tedg1609]

Wow. Mercedes is way behind in EV technology. They are in major trouble :/

[@markplott4820]

MIUNRO live - Mercedes AMG EQE is a WORSE seller than the M-EQE and did NOT even make TOP 5 in Luxury BEV SALES. TESLA outsold the Corvette and Trailhawk as well as all the Hellcats & Demons.

[@adean1742]

EQE just made a huge fire in Korea. It burned whole building and many cars , EQE using cheap China battery. How shame Benz is not the luxury anymore

[@shazam6274]

Disappointing review: no discussion of the aroma therapy or the magic fingers seat massage! That fake engine / muffler noise is ridiculous. Can it also add squealing tire noises? Also seems like AMG short changed MB customers by not having a Turbo like the Porsche

[@mikadavies660]

After years of owning Mercedes I found the EQ range an extremely dull unmasculine looking. This AMG has to be the worst look AMG to date. I would go for a Hyundai Ionq 5 GT.
