2025 Mercedes EQS Facelift Revealed
39Mercedes is updating the EQS for its 2025 lineup, incorporating elements reminiscent of its luxury S-Class into its premier electric vehicle. This refresh focuses primarily on the exterior's front, introducing a modified grille that boasts horizontal chrome lines, a nod to its top-tier traditional car.
A new emblem graces the vehicle, mirroring the classic S-Class's iconic hood ornament. The EQS will now feature the AMG Line front bumper as a standard fixture. Despite these changes, the car retains its unique, somewhat egg-shaped design, which may not command the same presence as the esteemed S-Class.
On the inside, most of the design remains as it was. However, Mercedes has enhanced the car's luxury with chrome highlights on the B-pillar air vents and added detailed touches like contrast stitching and Nappa leather edges on the backseat pillows. Additionally, a slight increase in foam thickness in the rear seats promises a tad more comfort.
Underneath its subtly tweaked exterior lies a battery that's been improved, now offering 118.0 kilowatt-hours of usable energy, up from 108.4 kilowatt-hours. This boost is expected to extend the driving range beyond the 2024 EQS's 352 miles for the rear-wheel-drive EQS 450+ model. The all-wheel-drive versions, the EQS 450 and 580, are estimated to travel 345 miles on a full charge, with the AMG EQS trailing at a 305-mile range.
The 2025 EQS introduces better energy recovery capabilities thanks to updated regenerative braking system software. This enhancement means the car's brake discs will endure less wear, as the system occasionally activates the brake pads for upkeep, reducing the need for traditional brake use.
Mercedes plans to launch the refreshed EQS in the United States later this year, though prices are yet to be disclosed. The current model's starting price is $104,400 for the EQS 450+. The all-wheel-drive version starts at $107,400, with the EQS 580 priced at $125,950. The performance-oriented AMG version costs $147,550.
