Locked me out numerous times while i was loading the groceries in the back & closed to sit in the driver side with keys inside & they wont open remotely either now, wear & tear on the car is ridiculous 10-15k miles need breaks & tires r bold, only done by dealership so your out a few grand each time, the app to control the doors & engine never works EVER always says requesting so don't waste ur $$ subscribing! The keys fly off the blade bc the button to release is located where u grip with ur hand super dumb, cost $1,500 to replace & reprogram so they sell the casing now for $100. Trunk wont release half the time you have to force it to open. Drives nothing special especially since your brakes wear out at record speed i was told by mechanic in their dealership the battery was made too heavy for the vehicle thus causing all of this unnecessary spending to maintain it. Nail in the tire will cost your $500-$600 bc special system inside no tire shop would touch it to fix must be replaced! Finger print for ur profile stops working in like a week. Door handles pop out and stay open sometimes had to replace 2 of them already on separate occasions. Sensors are not as good as my previous car either inoperable or not functioning at the moment, had my old car 10 years not one problem S550 this worst nightmare of my life, it is not stable either slides when you break fast in the rain with new tires, yes i made sure I am a mechanics child grew up in shops all my life.

Lots of Tech and Range

I've had it for 2 weeks and 1st all electric. Bottom line, it's a very nice car and I'm happy with it. Range is excellent. Power is pretty good. Ride is very nice, although it is not as stiff & sporty as I like it, even in sport mode, but i think most people will like the ride. I can't tell the difference between comfortable and sport mode. There are lots and lots of tech and settings (almost too much). I like the tech, but struggle figuring how to configure it all and how different settings work with each other. But it's getting easier. The brake pedal is quirky, when intelligent recuperation is on, and it is a little too slow to brake, for my liking. I took it on a 2-hour trip (each way), and it is clearly a great car for a long trip. Like all cars, there are pros and cons, but when you look at the whole package and knowing what I now know, I'd still buy it. I'll provide

I was looking for a long range electric vehicle to replace a Tesla Model S. The 2022 EQS450+ fit the bill. A MB-certified preowned car caught my eye and I flew 750 miles to inspect and purchase the car on the spot at a well rated dealership in Huntsville, AL. I drove the car home in one stretch. 2 weeks in and 2000 miles later, this car checks all my boxes. Although it has just the base trim, I miss nothing, save for the heated steering wheel. PROS: 1) Excellent range. The car means what it estimates in terms of miles of range. Unlike my former Model S, which was considerably over-optimistic with approx. 20% over-promising and under-delivering, this fine Benz’s range prediction is spot-on. Even during a recent cold snap (Feb. 2025 polar vortexes be thanked), the range was more than generous. I’m getting well over the promised 350 miles with normal, at times spirited driving. 2) Smooth ride. You hear nothing except a little wind noise and the tires (aka season OEM) sing their usual song. 3) Seat comfort. I’m 6.2’ and had never been in a more supportive and perfectly fitting drivers seat. The initial drive home (10 hrs) in one stretch was a piece of cake. 4) Charging speed and navigation to chargers: I was used to Tesla’s reliable long trip charging suggestions and liked it very much for its reliability and simplicity. The EQS was an equal match and guided me to chargers reliably and with great accuracy both re. battery power remaining and directions. I selected fast chargers only and managed the 780 mile long trip home with 3 stops, starting with a full battery: 32 min, 18 mins and 15 mins, reaching my destination with 42% battery remaining. Total charging cost was shy of $120. 5) Rear bench and trunk: comfortable and more than ample space in Row 2. With my drivers seat settings, my equally tall son could easily stretch out behind the drivers seat. The trunk is enormous and I liked the hatchback style trunk lid on my Tesla S so much that I wanted that again. Two adult bikes fit perfectly, with the rear seats folded. 6) Interior: Elegant. LED lights are awesome and prevent fatigue with their changing patterns. Sound system is very good. Simplicity of the logical MBUX system, you’re just 2 clicks away from the main screen at all times. 7) Adaptive cruise control: Works really well. I had it on for most of my 780 mile drive home, the car keeps it’s selectable distance, in heavy traffic and a miles-long traffic jam it safely came to a full stop and began accelerating again on its own, keeping the pre-selected distance from the car in front of me. It works seamlessly, reliably and smoothly. Very safe. Other comments; I like the incoming air filtration system, a standard on all trims. Shape of the car is a personal preference, it looks much better in person than in photos, IMO. CONS: Really none thus far. Will update this review if anything comes up. I very much like this Mercedes - it’s my first car from this brand. Can comfortably recommend it.
