2025 Mercedes-Benz EQS Trims Comparison

2025 EQS trim level differences

The 2025 Mercedes-Benz EQS is an all-electric large luxury sedan available in three variations: 450+, 450 4Matic, and 580 4Matic. We also expect last year's AMG EQS to return to the lineup. A single electric motor (355 horsepower, 419 lb-ft of torque) powers the EQS 450+ model's rear wheels. The EQS 450 4Matic has a dual-motor all-wheel-drive system (355 horsepower, 590 lb-ft). For stronger acceleration, choose the EQS 580 4Matic with dual-motor all-wheel drive (536 horsepower, 633 lb-ft). The AMG EQS uses the same powertrain as the 580 4Matic but boosts power to 649 hp.

Mercedes offers the 2025 EQS in Premium, Exclusive and Pinnacle trim levels. The highlights of each are below.

Premium
Starts out the EQS with:

  • Adaptive air suspension
  • Rear-wheel steering (improves high-speed stability and makes parking easier)
  • Panoramic glass roof
  • Power liftgate
  • Soft-close doors (catch as they're being closed and gently pull shut)
  • Two-zone automatic climate control
  • Leather upholstery
  • Heated and ventilated front seats
  • Massaging front seats with rapid heating (580 4Matic)
  • Heated, power-adjustable second-row seats

Significant tech features include:

  • 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster
  • 17.7-inch OLED Hyperscreen center display and 12.3-inch passenger display
  • Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration
  • Wireless smartphone charging pad
  • Integrated augmented reality navigation system
  • 15-speaker Burmester audio system

 
It also has plenty of driver assist features, such as:

  • Forward collision warning with automatic braking (warns you of an impending collision and applies the brakes in certain scenarios)
  • Adaptive cruise control (maintains a driver-set distance between the Mercedes and the car in front)
  • Surround-view camera system (gives you a top-down view of the EQS and its surroundings in tight parking situations)
  • Lane keeping assistance (steers the EQS back into its lane if it begins to drift over the lane marker)
  • Lane centering system (makes minor steering corrections to help keep the vehicle centered in its lane)
  • Blind-spot warning with rear cross-traffic warning (alerts you if a vehicle is in your blind spot during a lane change or while in reverse)
  • Automated parking system (steers into a parking spot with little or no driver intervention)
  • Evasive steering assistance (enhances the forward collision mitigation system with steering-based collision avoidance)

Exclusive and Pinnacle
These two trims are pretty much identical and add:

  • Four-zone automatic climate control system
  • Air Balance interior air filtration and fragrance system
  • Massaging front seats with rapid heating (450 models)

Mercedes offers the 2025 EQS with several option packages including:

  • Executive Interior package (Pinnacle trim only)
    • Heated, ventilated and massaging rear seats
    • Rapid heating function with neck and shoulder heating elements
    • Rear control tablet
    • Hand gesture control for various rear seat functions
    • Adjustable rear seat lighting
    • Extended recline for rear passengers
    • Chauffeur function for the front passenger seat
  • Winter package
    • Heated windshield and washer system
    • Heated steering wheel
  • AMG Line package
    • Star-pattern grille with a large Mercedes star in the center
    • AMG wheels
    • AMG Line exterior and interior styling
    • Flat-bottom steering wheel
  • Manufaktur package
    • Exclusive exterior and interior design
    • Higher-quality materials

Several stand-alone options are also available for the EQS, including:

  • Sound-reducing glass
  • Air filtration and interior fragrance system
  • Interior mood and comfort enhancement programs (Energizing Comfort)
  • Head-up display (displays important information in your sight line on the windshield)
  • Augmented reality head-up display (displays important information in your sight line on the windshield with additional data superimposed onto the data)
  • Rear-seat entertainment system, with available wireless headsets
  • Drive recorder (records an image of the road ahead, which can be reviewed at a later time)

Which 2025 EQS trim does Edmunds recommend?

Unless you need to get to 60 mph in a really big hurry, we recommend the EQS 450+. It is the most affordable version of this electric luxury car and offers the longest driving range. Better yet, if you have room in your budget — and you probably do — you can choose from numerous upgrades to enhance or personalize your EQS.
