Exploring the Mercedes-AMG EQS 53

Mercedes-EQ is the electric car brand for Mercedes-Benz, and incorporates our electric, plug-in hybrid and mild hybrid vehicles. The EQ brand emphasises the innovative technology and convenient services that come with the exclusively luxurious vehicles to enhance your overall ownership experience.

The Mercedes-Benz EQS is redefining this segment as the first all-electric luxury saloon EQ vehicle, based on the modular architecture for luxury and executive-class electric vehicles. 

Exterior

The Mercedes-AMG EQS 53 4MATIC+ opens the door to the extremely exciting future of AMG Driving Performance.

The exterior design is very similar to its Mercedes-Benz counterpart. The EQS 53 shares the AMG DNA styling, with the AMG-specific radiator grille with hot-stamped vertical struts in chrome on a black panel. The muscular rear design with the spoiler lip and 21-inch light-alloy wheels come as standard on the Night Edition. These features aren’t just for show; the spoiler lip is an important aerodynamic feature to reduce lift of the rear axle and support neutral handling at high speeds. Finally, the brake system has the infamous painted red callipers, confirming its identification as an AMG.

Interior

The interior follows the same AMG DNA, as the driver wraps their hands around the AMG Performance steering wheel with the latest twin-spoke design and touch-control buttons with haptic feedback. Even the grip area has perforated Nappa leather – an AMG touch. From here, you can also access the Dynamic Select options and driving selections.

The new MBUX Hyperscreen – installed for the first time in an AMG here – has an elegant and modern design, providing functionality with ease of access. All three screens, including the driver’s instrument cluster, the central OLED display and the passenger OLED display, are  combined under one 55.5 inch glass piece. This is the largest screen display in a Mercedes-Benz to date, described by the company themselves as an example of digital and analogue fusion.

Furthermore, the sports seats, finished in Neva Grey Nappa leather, encapsulate the synchronisation of sportiness and luxury present in every AMG. The finishing touches of the Active Ambient Lighting, running all the way around the Hyperscreen and surrounding analogue air vents, work in sync with the Burmester 3D Surround Sound System and the Air Balance Package with Energising Air Control Plus. You can even set the colour combinations and scents to match your mood; it looks good, and it feels good. The overall feel of the cabin is harmonious, modern and exciting.

The rear passengers can also take advantage of this ambience with the Rear Luxury Lounge Package, complete with the mini-MBUX touch screen in the centre armrest. Whether you are driving yourself or being driven, you’ll be experiencing absolute indulgence. All of this is wrapped up in a practical body, with room for up to four passengers and a luggage capacity of 610 litres with the rear seats up, with a massive 1,770 litres when the rear seats are down.
