With an operating range of up to 770 kilometres (WLTP) and an output of up to 385 kW, the powertrain of the EQS also meets every expectation of a progressive saloon in the S-Class segment. All EQS models have an electric powertrain (eATS) at the rear axle, while the versions with 4MATIC also have an eATS at the front axle.

  • Modular drive concept for high overall performance and long range
    • EQS from Mercedes-EQ, with 245 to 385 kW plus an even more powerful performance version
    • The electrical consumption1 of the EQS 450+, NEDC: combined electrical consumption:
      19.1-16.0 kWh/100 km; combined CO2 emissions: 0 g/km
    • The electrical consumption1 of the EQS 580 4MATIC+, NEDC: combined electrical consumption: 20.0-16.9 kWh/100 km; combined CO2 emissions: 0 g/km
    • Max. torque transmission output: 568 Nm (EQS 450+) resp. 855 Nm (EQS 580 4MATIC)
    • WLTP ranges of up to 770 kilometres are possible depending on vehicle equipment and configuration
    • Top speed limited to 210 km/h
  • Available with rear- and all-wheel drive
    • Electric motors on the front and rear axles are modern permanently excited synchronous motors
    • Motor particularly powerful on the rear axle due to six-phase operation: two windings with three phases each
    • Stators with pull-in winding for a particularly strong magnetic field
    • Very compact
    • Sophisticated thermal concept for high load capacity and multiple accelerations with consistently high performance
      • What is known as a water lance in the shaft of the rotor cools the rotor
      • Further cooling elements in the cooling circuit:
        • Stator ribs
        • Needle-shaped pin-fin structure on the inverter
        • Transmission oil cooler: also more efficient during cold driving (gear oil is warmed up)
    • 4MATIC models with Torque Shift function
      • Intelligently and continuously distributes the drive torques between the front and rear axles
      • Ensures that the most efficient eATS (electric drivetrain) is used in each case
      • Much faster response than with mechanical all-wheel drive
        • eATS can be regulated independently of each other
        • Torque is checked 10,000 times per minute and set if necessary
  • Intelligent recuperation
    • Adjustable by the driver in three steps via shift paddles on the steering wheel
    • Situation-optimised with the help of the ECO Assistant
    • In DAuto, up to 5 m/s² are achieved, of which 3 m/s² are due to energy recovery (2 m/s² via the wheel brakes)
    • The recuperation output is up to 290 kW4
    • Braking to stop is possible
    • Deceleration is also for detected vehicles travelling ahead until they come to a stop, for example at traffic lights
    • In versions with rear-wheel drive, recuperation is limited by traction
  • EQS meets the highest demands for noise and vibration ...
