Mercedes EQE500 is an EV techy dream
As the EV market continues to evolve into what our future could look like automobile-wise, German manufacturers have their hands full in trying to beat the competition to the dealerships.
Mercedes Benz has always been a leader in manufacturing with innovation as well as testing the market with their releases. In Grasso’s Garage this week, Mercedes delivered the EQE500 4Matic. This new release is a head scratcher in appearance, but one heck of a machine on the inside.
Powered as only an EV and with a 252 mile range on a full charge, it seems to be specifically designed to be the local upscale cruiser. With most EV owners, who plug in every night when they get home, this range is not an issue.
Comfort, luxury and power all top the charts for the MB EQE500. Powered with Dual Permanently Synchronous Electric Motors w/300 kw with 90.6 kwh high voltage batteries, the MB EQE500 is quick on its feet. Comfort Suspension with Selective Damping, 10-Degree Rear Axle Steering and new-generation MBUX Multimedia System with Navigation are just a few of the standard features. Active Range Monitoring & Charging Station Availability usage through the 12.8” Central OLED Touchscreen Portrait Display with
12.3” Instrument Cluster make traveling easy. That’s a lot of tech! As you can see, the interior has a monster screen and with Mercedes Benz technology, this one is sure to do it all. Also, 4Matic means all-wheel drive, so that is another great plus on top of all of the techy features.
As Mercedes Benz continues to lead the way in design and luxury development, the EQE500 is a great option. Although the “bubble-shape” exterior takes some getting used to, maybe the front end nose design is just too slope-like? I’m not really sure, but on the inside the EQE500 is a dream, and if you like the exterior aesthetics, the EQE500 might just be the EV car for you.
