2023 Mercedes-Benz EQS Trims Comparison
2023 EQS trim level differences
The 2023 EQS is Mercedes' all-electric large luxury sedan. It comes in four variations: 450+, 450 4Matic (new for 2023), 580 4Matic and AMG EQS. The 450+ comes with a single electric motor powering the rear wheels. It produces 329 horsepower and 419 lb-ft of torque. The 450 4Matic has dual motors and all-wheel drive that combine for 355 horsepower and 590 lb-ft. The 580 4Matic also features all-wheel drive but has more powerful motors that deliver 516 hp and 631 lb-ft. The AMG EQS uses the same powertrain but boosts power to 649 hp and 700 lb-ft of torque. There's even a Race Start mode that temporarily increases output to 751 hp and 752 lb-ft for blistering launches and acceleration. All EQS models use a 108-kWh battery pack. Keep reading for more information on the EQS' range and features.
Which 2023 EQS trim does Edmunds recommend?
If you just want an EV alternative to a growing mass of Teslas, a base 450+ in Premium trim does just fine. It gets you the maximum range and comes loaded with plenty of luxury features. That said, the Pinnacle trim is a pretty good deal. The extra cost is worth it to get high-luxe items like massaging front seats, heated and ventilated rear seats, and upgraded infotainment.
