Mercedes-Benz wants the EQS to redefine the market for high-end electric vehicles. The full-electric flagship sedan's highlights include its 107.8 kilowatt-hour battery that provides a range of 780 kilometers (about 485 miles), class-leading aerodynamics and an intuitive operating system.
Mercedes chose to give the EQS a cab-forward design, which gives passengers more room and the engine less since the car doesn't have one, to make sure the sedan was “clearly distinguishable from vehicles with combustion engines at first glance.”
The car's frameless doors and recessed door handles help give it what Mercedes claims is an industry-best drag coefficient of 0.20.
