The Mercedes-Benz EQE SUV is one of the latest all-electric models available in the United States. Not only that, it’s locally produced in Alabama, alongside the EQS SUV.<\/p>\n

Currently, there are three versions of the Mercedes-Benz EQE<\/a> in the US – the entry-level, rear-wheel drive EQE 350+ SUV, and two all-wheel drive versions – EQE 350 4Matic SUV and EQE 500 4Matic SUV. In the future, there will also be a performance-oriented AMG version<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Mercedes-Benz AMG EQE SUV<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/section>\n

Prices of the EQE SUV start at an MSRP of $77,900 (plus a $1,150 destination charge), and this price concerns both the EQE 350+ SUV and the EQE 350 4Matic SUV<\/a>. The more powerful EQE 500 4Matic SUV is $11,600 more expensive.<\/p>\n

Interestingly, the Mercedes-Benz EQE SUV is not eligible for the $7,500 federal tax credit (at least, it’s not officially listed), despite it being locally produced and some versions being under the $80,000 price cap. Maybe something will change in this matter if Mercedes-Benz will comply with additional battery cell\/battery material production requirements.<\/p>\n

Those prices are similar\/or slightly higher than in the case of the EQE Sedan<\/a>, which means that customers can flexibly decide whether they prefer a sedan or SUV body style. On the other hand, the price difference to the Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV<\/a> is quite significant – a matter of $26,500-$36,450, depending on which version we compare (see EQS SUV details here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

The Mercedes-Benz EQE SUV is promised to enter the US market in Spring 2023 (none was sold in Q1), although the company’s website does not allow building configurations yet.<\/p>\n

All of the Mercedes-Benz EQE SUVs are equipped with a 90.6-kilowatt-hour (kWh) battery (just like the EQE Sedan).<\/p>\n

The EPA-estimated range, according to the manufacturer, varies from 253 to 279 miles, but the ratings are not yet available on the EPA website.<\/p>\n

* EPA-estimated range, according to the manufacturer; we assume 19-inch wheels are standard<\/p>\n

Power output is 215 kilowatts (kW) in the case of the EQE 350+ SUV and EQE 350 4Matic SUV, while the EQE 500 4Matic SUV had a peak output of 300 kilowatts.<\/p>\n

It’s worth noting that earlier this year, Mercedes-Benz introduced a new performance acceleration on-demand upgrade, as a subscription service<\/a>, which improves the acceleration of the EQS 450 4Matic, EQS 450 4Matic SUV, EQE 350 4Matic, EQE SUV 4Matic SUV.<\/p>\n

In the case of the EQE 350 4Matic SUV, the 0-60 mph time is reduced by 1.0 seconds from 6.2 to 5.2, at an expense of $60\/month, $600\/year, or $1,950 for a lifetime of the vehicle.<\/p>\n

All of the 2023 Mercedes-Benz EQE versions are equipped with a 9.6-kW onboard charger, which is promised to recharge the battery from 10 to 100 percent of state-of-charge (SOC) in 10.5 hours.<\/p>\n

Regarding DC fast charging, 10-80 percent SOC recharge is possible in 32 minutes at up to 170 kilowatts of power.<\/p>\n

As in the case of some of the other electric Mercedes-Benz, the manufacturer – in partnership with Electrify America – provides the EQE SUV with a two-year, unlimited number of 30-minute DC fast charging sessions.<\/p>\n

If we compare the EQE SUV with its more luxurious EQS SUV cousin, it will turn out that it’s about a quarter less expensive. However, it has also a smaller battery, a lower expected EPA range, and less power.<\/p>\n

Charging-wise, the results are basically the same – the onboard charger has the same power, while the DC fast charging peaks at 170-kW, compared to 200-kW in the EQS (due to a larger battery).<\/p>\n

Here are the rear-wheel drive versions of both models:<\/p>\n
