The presentation in society of the new Mercedes EQS SUV is imminent. However, with only a few days to go until its entry into the scene, the expected 100% electric SUV from Mercedes has been completely exposed. The exterior design of the new electric of the EQ family no longer hides secrets.
About a week to go until the new Mercedes EQS SUV be officially revealed. Over the last few months we have been closely following the entire development process of this electric SUV thanks to spy photos. Even Mercedes itself has made public numerous advances both from the tests carried out in desert and frozen areas.
Everything is ready for the new electric car of the Mercedes EQ family to enter the scene. We are facing a model that will position itself as an SUV alternative to the Mercedes EQS. This is what its name indicates. And although we still have a few days to meet him, his exterior design has been fully exposed thanks to a leak.
Some very interesting images have appeared on the social network Instagram. Some photographs that allow you to discover all the keys to the exterior of the new EQS SUV. If we add to this leak the preview of the interior published by the brand, we can say that the design no longer hides any secrets. It will adopt the new design language that Mercedes is applying to all its new battery electric models.
The autonomy of the new Mercedes EQS SUV
Regarding the 100% electric drive system no big surprises expected. The reason? The aforementioned relationship that this model has with the Mercedes EQS that we can already find in the market. The “heart” of the new EQS SUV will be a battery whose capacity will exceed the 100 kWh barrier. It will aim to power two electric motors, one per axle, in order to enjoy an all-wheel drive configuration.
The autonomy will reach, in the best of cases, 600 kilometers. A very respectable figure if we take into account its status as an SUV type vehicle. However, Mercedes has worked very intensively on aerodynamics and proof of this are the characteristic features that the exterior design will show off. Its general forms, the door handles flush with the bodywork and the bumpers are a clear example.
Release date of the new Mercedes EQS SUV
When will it hit the market? The coming-out of the new EQS SUV already has a date. The debut in society is set for the next day April 19, 2022. However, despite the fact that its presentation is just around the corner, to see the first units in European dealers (including Spain) we will have to wait until the end of this year. As usual at Mercedes, the order book will be opened a few months before.
The series production process of the new Mercedes electric SUV will take place in the United States. And more specifically in facilities located in Alabama. The brand already manufactures large SUVs there, such as the Mercedes GLS.
