Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV
The EQS SUV shares most of its components with the EQS sedan but looks less like a jelly bean. Whichever model you select (450, 580 or Maybach 600), top speed is limited to 210 km/h. However, 0-100 km/h sprints range from 4.4-6.0 seconds—not bad at all for a large electric SUV that tips the scales at 2.8 tons. While the 56-inch Hyperscreen impresses inside, the lack of physical controls is likely to annoy many drivers.
