Mercedes

Mercedes is rolling out a new EQS 500 4MATIC sedan in specific countries with a 330kW motor producing 449hp (330kW) of power and 855Nm (631lb-ft) of torque. It leverages its front and rear motors to sprint to 100km/h in just 4.8s and go on to reach a top speed of 210km/h (130mph).

We also found the EQS 450 4MATIC, which is more powerful than the 450+ (non 4MATIC). The EQS 450 4MATIC has 360hp (265kW) and 800nm (590lb-ft). It achieves 0-100km/h in 5.6 seconds thanks to its all-wheel drive, and goes on to 210km/h or 130mph.

The EQS 450 4MATIC and 500 4MATIC are already appearing in Mercedes-Benz's configurator in various countries. They come with a 108.4kWh battery that supports 200kW DC charging and can charge it from 10% to 80% in 31 minutes.

The battery stores 0.6kWh of extra charge compared to the largest previously available in the range and helps the EQS 500 4MATIC to a WLTP range of 678km. The EQS 450 4MATIC offers a WLTP range of 684km.

The EQS 500 4MATIC starts at €123,500, which puts it above the EQS 450+ (starting at €107,330) and just below the €135,530 EQS 580 4MATIC. The EQS 450 4MATIC starts at €120,430.

Beyond that the EQS 450 4MATIC and 500 4MATIC are fully configurable to Mercedes' high standards. You can preload them with an Electric Art or AMG exterior, featuring 20-inch alloy rims (and a paid upgrade to 21-inch), and the full range of colors.

On the interior, the add-on options include full Napa leather, an AMG interior and even wood trim. You get three equipment levels - all come with 360-degree parking cameras, Merdeces' Plus safety assistant, and Mercedes' Digital Light headlight system. A move to the Premium package brings a heads-up display, Burmester Surround-Sound audio, and an electric sunroof. The top-of-the-line Premium Plus trim adds contoured seats.

Mercedes hasn't provided a shipping date for the new versions just yet.

This looks to be the wisest choice from all the versions. BTW, can't see this to be offered from Mercedes UK.
