Performance

The Mercedes-EQ EQS 500 4MATIC has a maximum power of 330 KW (449 hp/443 bhp). The total torque is 828 nm (611 ft-lb). It performs the 0-100km/h sprint (0-62mph) in 4,8 seconds. The top speed is 210 km/h.

Battery, range, and charging

The battery has a gross capacity of 120kWh and a net capacity of 108,4kWh, meaning you have a 11,6kWh buffer for protection. (9,7%). The Lithium-Ion battery uses NMC technology.

The WLTP range varies from 696 to 582 km (433-362 mi), depending on car options. Bigger wheels are an example of an equipment option that increases consumption and reduces the electric range. The consumption is between 15.6kWh/100km for the basic version and 18.6kWh/100km for the top trim version for the WLTP standard test. For more details about the range, see real-world data and range listing on this model’s range and consumption page.

The maximum DC charging speed is 210kW. A full charge from 0 - 100% would take 82 minutes, while a more common scenario of 10-80% would take 30 minutes. If you assume you lose 5 minutes driving per charge stop in addition to the charge time, the optimum charge area is from 1% to 57%, resulting in an actual charge speed, including time loss, of 142kW. Each charge session would take 26 minutes and 41 seconds.

For the theoretical 1000km challenge, starting with a full battery and driving at 120km/h (75 mph), assuming optimal driving conditions and consumption of 22kWh/100km, 1000km will take 9 hours and 7 minutes. This trip will require two charge session(s) charging from 1% to 53%. The total time lost for charging up the battery will be 48 minutes.

Onboard charger

For level 1 and level 2 AC charging, the onboard charger supports up to 22 KW charging. As a result, you can charge the battery 0-100% from home in about 4 hours and 55 minutes.
