About the 2025 Mercedes-Benz EQE SUV
1st generation (X294, introduced for 2023), third model year; minor safety-equipment update
Mercedes-Benz positions the EQE SUV as a midsize electric luxury SUV combining quiet, smooth power with a roomy two-row cabin, flexible cargo space, and an interface built around large digital displays and voice control. Its dedicated electric platform and aerodynamic body emphasize efficiency and cabin quietness, while standard comfort, parking technology, and rapid-charging capability make it suited to daily commuting and longer trips.
The EQE 350+ is the range-focused rear-wheel-drive model, while the EQE 350 4MATIC adds dual-motor all-wheel drive for better traction. The stronger EQE 500 4MATIC has 402 horsepower, rear-wheel steering, leather upholstery, and a full-width three-screen dashboard.
