The Mercedes-Benz EQE is an all electric sedan as part of the new EQ electric sub-brand by Mercedes. The EQE is the electrified version of the E-class Mercedes and measures slightly smaller than the EQS. Due to its size and expected price, the EQE slots nicely to fill the gap between the Tesla Model 3 and Model S.

This luxury electric sedan features a more spacious cabin than its gasoline-powered counterpart and impressive tech features such as 56-inch-long Hyperscreen. This Hyperscreen is a giant display that spans the whole dashboard and consists of three separate screens (the gauge cluster, central touchscreen, and the passenger-side touchscreen), making the sedan look ultra-futuristic.

The EQE is expected to come in four trim levels: the rear-wheel drive (RWD) EQE 350+ and all-wheel drive (AWD) EQE 350, 500 and AMG EQE. Both the EQE 350+ and EQE 350 generate 288 horsepower and 417 lb-ft of torque, with the EQE 350+ generating that power from a single rear motor and the 350 4MATIC generating that same power between motors at both ends of the axle. The AWD EQE 500 and AMG EQE come with dual motors for Mercedes-Benz’s signature 4MATIC AWD system producing a combined 402 and 617 horsepower respectively.

The 90 kWh battery in the EQE promises to provide up to 300 miles of range, which will drop slightly in the all-wheel drive version of the sedan. According to Mercedes, the EQE can charge from 10% to 100% in about 9.5 hours with a 240V electric vehicle charger. The charging time for the EQE is significantly reduced to 30 minutes when using a DC fast charger up to 170 kW.

To take full advantage of quick home charging, Mercedes EQE owners will want to install a 48 amp home EV charger, such as the JuiceBox 48, which has a standard SAE J1772 plug that works with any electric vehicle on the market.
