Mercedes-Benz has unveiled the interior of its upcoming EQS electric sedan with a massive 55-inch screen at the center of its user experience inside the vehicle.
Mercedes-Benz announced on Friday that its comprehensive insurance will include coverage of home-charging equipment, cables, and batteries. The policy includes risk coverage up to € 10,000 ($10,900) related to theft, vandalism, “overvoltage damage,” short circuits, and even bites from animals and rodents.
Reports from German media and Automotive News say the Mercedes-Benz EQS all-electric sedan is on track this year for Europe. So we reached out to Daimler to see if the EQS was planned for an introduction in the US in 2021. But the company is not yet ready to share details.
When Mercedes-Benz unveiled the Mercedes EQS electric sedan last year, the company said that a pair of electric motors would produce 350 kilowatts (470hp) of power. The UK’s Autocar now reports that an AMG high-power version of the EQS will be produced, amping things up to higher than 600 horsepower. It appears that Mercedes-Benz wants EVs that stack up against Tesla’s Plaid versions, even if not quite as powerful.
Mercedes-Benz today unveils the Vision EQS, an electric sedan concept with 435 miles of range and 350 kW charging, which the automaker describes as “a trailblazer for the entire Mercedes-Benz EQ family.” Expand Expanding Close
German luxury automakers are all working on their own all-electric vehicles to come out in the next few years.
Unlike Tesla who first launched the Model S all-electric sedan in 2012 before following it by the Model X SUV 3 years later, the German automakers have first been working on their electric SUVs, which are coming out this year and next year, before turning their attention to sedans.
But Mercedes-Benz now says that their first electric sedan is following the SUV closely behind in the development program for a launch a year later. Expand Expanding Close
