Used Mercedes-Benz EQS for sale near Newton Abbot

If you want the most sporting luxury electric car, the Mercedes EQS is not for you. Certainly not until the AMG arrives since that, on paper, promises to be a different prospect altogether.

Until then, the Tesla Model S, Audi e-tron GT and our driver’s EV of choice – the Porsche Taycan – offer more driver interaction and reward on a good road. But when it comes to luxury, technology, interior space, refinement and comfort? Well, the EQS is something else. After all, it’s easy to call a lot of EVs milestones, as manufacturers push the boundaries of what an electric powertrain can bring to personal transport, but the Mercedes EQS really does set the benchmark for range and sumptuousness.

Ironically, then, given the many decades of development that have seen the Mercedes S-Class sitting pretty as the chauffeur car of choice in the circa £100,000 price arena, it might well be Mercedes itself that finally ends the reign of the S-Class.

Regardless, the EQS is sublime to drive, be driven in and generally to experience and live with. It’s our full-sized luxury EV of choice.
