Mercedes EQS facelift debuts with a striking new grille and a larger battery, promising enhanced range and comfort.
Mercedes EQS Facelift Gets New Grille, Larger Battery
The EQS facelift marks a significant evolution in design, drawing inspiration from the iconic S-Class. While retaining its classic silhouette, Mercedes-Benz has elevated the aesthetic appeal with chrome elements on the grille, reminiscent of its traditional radiator grille. Additionally, the EQS now proudly showcases the ‘star’ hood ornament similar to its ICE flagship models.
New Features
With the optional Extended Rear Luxury Lounge Pack, the EQS offers unparalleled comfort for rear occupants. A special slanted footrest, adjustable rear backrest up to 38 degrees, and increased foam in the rear seats enhances comfort for rear occupants. Furthermore, the inclusion of seat heating, neck and shoulder heating, and pneumatic seat depth adjustment ensure a first-class experience for every passenger. The integration of the MBUX Hyperscreen, Dolby Atmos, and a digital travel guide further enhances the overall driving experience.
Battery Pack and Range
Equipped with a larger 118kWh battery pack, the EQS facelift extends its range by approximately 82km. This enhancement propels the India-spec EQS beyond the 900km mark, making it a formidable contender in the electric vehicle market.
Anticipated Launch in India
Enthusiasts can anticipate the arrival of the EQS facelift in India in the near future, as Mercedes-Benz plans to introduce it alongside a lineup of new vehicles. While the pricing may experience a slight increment from its predecessor’s Rs 1.62 crore tag, the facelift promises to uphold its rivalry against competitors like the BMW i7 and Porsche Taycan.
Conclusion
The Mercedes EQS facelift sets a new benchmark for luxury electric vehicles, combining exquisite design elements, cutting-edge technology, and enhanced performance. With its impending launch in India, automotive enthusiasts can look forward to experiencing automotive excellence like never before.
