In the case of the EQS, the EQS 580 4MATIC version has not received its card yet (this is why there is only 450+ above).<\/p>\n<p>The entry-level EQS with a 350 mile (563 km) EPA range is below expectations, but it might turn out to be better in the independent testing, so stay tuned for the 70 mph range test.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, the efficiency is very good, but not as good as in the Lucid Air or Tesla Model S. Actually, <a href=\"https:\/\/insideevs.com\/news\/514789\/tesla-models-plaid-epa-range\/\">even the performance-oriented Model S Plaid has higher efficiency<\/a> (in a 5-cycle test, so not entirely comparable though).<\/p>\n<div class=\"table-wrapper\">\n<table>\n<tbody readability=\"3\">\n<tr readability=\"2\">\n<td colspan=\"2\" bgcolor=\"#6CCC53\"><strong>2022 Mercedes EQS 450+ (RWD; 20&#8243;) :: EPA Range rating by InsideEVs<\/strong><br \/>[Electric Vehicle 2-cycle label]<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\"><strong>Combined<\/strong><br \/>City<br \/>Highway<\/td>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\"><strong>350 mi (563 km)<\/strong><br \/>N\/A<br \/>N\/A<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr readability=\"2\">\n<td colspan=\"2\"><strong>EPA Energy consumption<\/strong> (including charging losses):<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr readability=\"2\">\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\"><strong>Combined<\/strong><br \/>City<br \/>Highway<\/td>\n<td nowrap=\"nowrap\"><strong>97 MPGe: 347 Wh\/mi (216 Wh\/km)<\/strong><br \/>97 MPGe: 347 Wh\/mi (216 Wh\/km)<br \/>97 MPGe: 347 Wh\/mi (216 Wh\/km)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table><\/div>\n<p>The notes a slightly higher energy consumption and lower range, which makes us a little bit suspicious.
