The EQS SUV is luxurious, quick, and silent.
It comes standard in a rear-drive, one-motor configuration with an EPA-estimated driving range of 323 miles.
The two-motor, AWD version went 314 miles in our highway-range test.
Home charging is on the slower side because of its 9.6-kW onboard charger and large 118-kWh battery.
With a maximum acceptance rate of 200 kW at DC fast chargers, Mercedes says it can add 190 miles of range in about 30 minutes.
Acceleration is tantalizingly quick and feels effortless.
The ride is comfortable, the cabin is serenely quiet, and handling is surprisingly agile.
The brake pedal feels unnervingly spongy, however.
Many of the controls are distracting to use while driving.
A small third-row seat is available.

The EQS SUV is a three figure fully electric SUV.
A third row seat is optional.
It comes standard in a rear-drive, one-motor configuration which has an EPA estimated range of 305 miles.
The 4Matic upgrade, which includes two motors, thus making it all-wheel drive, has an estimated range of 285 miles.
Both configurations have a 9.6-kW onboard charger and use a large 107.8-kWh battery.
They are compatible with maximum DC charging output of 200 kW.
The 580 makes 536 horsepower, but even the 450 models with 355-hp are plenty quick, quiet and effortless.
The ride is comfortable and serene and handling is surprisingly agile, partly due to the four-wheel steering.
The brake pedal feels spongy, however.
Controls are daunting at first but manageable.
The EQS SUV boasts a full complement of active safety features, and the adaptive cruise control, combined with lane-keeping assistance, can execute lane changes on its own if the driver signals.
