It is huge amazing, full reviews coming to the channel soon im going to take both of these out for a drive today and add them into the review here. But ive fallen deeply today, its just a first impressions, first drive, hopefully youre enjoying the reviews in the channel. If you havent already please subscribe, we are on a target to aim to get to 10 000 subscribers by the end of the year um of 2022. If youre watching this still in 2022, lets take these out for a drive before we take the eqe out for a drive, i didnt need a chance to drive the eqs today but, as i mentioned, were going to be getting full reviews on the channel moving forward. It comes to ireland in two different model variants: the eqs 450 plus, which is the one that was here today that has rear axle electric motor priced at a starting price of 129 965 and then theres the eqs, mercedes, amg, 53 4matic, all wheel, drive version, and It has motors on the front and the rear, and that has a starting price before any extras of 180 thousand and 15 euros. Um both have a drag coefficient of 0.2, which is one of the best in any mainstream manufactured vehicles in the market as an operating range of 735 kilometers wltp and has a power output of 245 kilowatts or 333 brake horsepower and has a quota top speed of 210 kilometers electrical consumption ranges from 16.

2 to 18.9 kilowatt hours per 100 kilometers, so very efficient um, the hey mercedes um support virtual assistant, supports up to 27 languages and it has a 15 speaker surround sound system, so im really looking forward to getting both of these Cars um for a longer spin and have a more in depth review, but now lets take the eqe out for a quick drive whats it like driving the mercedes, benz eqe beautiful, not the cheapest car in the world, as we as we know, with the price coming In at starting at for the 350 plus 86 000 euros, there will be a 300 coming at some stage, but yeah youre talking its an executive, its a premium executive electric car steering is well weighted. The seats are amazing, really nice seats. Music throttle response is good and thats in comfort mode lets change the dynamic to sport. Oh yeah first drive first impressions today its its im going to be getting these cars for longer. It is a firmer suspension. I changed that to comfort on the way back down again very smooth, braking like we had in the eqv. So this is the fourth or fifth electric passenger car ive had for mercedes benz. If you havent already make sure you subscribe to the channel and look and just search mercedes, benz, eevee, review, ireland and youll see all the ones so ive done. The eqa eqb eqc and those three are based on the petrol platforms, combustion engine platforms that theyre based on petrol and diesel and theyve just electrified it.

Whereas the eqe is its own eq platform and then um the eqe and the eqs is going to be or is on its own and theyre gon na have the suv versions of this as well. The eqe suv, eqs suv but um yeah nice. Just here on the grounds of powers court, the garden center is behind me. There, Music, very refined. I only have for a couple of minutes today now im not going to go too in depth, but steering it feels good. The throttle accelerate. The throttle is nicely weighted. Rear visibility is a bit on the small size with that coupe roof line wing wearers id like them a small bit bigger, but then were starting to nick pick here now. I definitely would spec a windscreen for this because with the dark headliner and the dark interior, its a small bit dark internally, but these are all personal choices. I love the red seatbelts and the ambient light 64 different colors and as much as the hyper screen is nice, with the normal screen, the 12.8 inch screen, i think its loads. There is a big expanse of whatever finish you go for and this one its kind of like a gray wood um, but i i would prefer this to the hyper screen. I think the hyper screen might be a small bit of overkill. Its lovely dont get me wrong, but i think it just might be a bit too much yeah looking forward to having this for a bit longer than a couple of minutes.

Hopefully, youve enjoyed my look around the eqs and the eqe make sure you subscribe to the channel, leave a comment and a like and remember, if you think an eevee is for you leave it to me and ill review.
