Mercedes EQS Specs, Electric Power & Dimensions (2021–2026) — First Generation
The first-generation Mercedes EQS is a full-size electric liftback that trades the classic sedan silhouette for a smooth, aerodynamic shape. It pairs limousine comfort with a quiet, fully electric drive experience.
Mercedes EQS horsepower varies by drivetrain rather than by engine size, since every version is electric with a single-speed automatic. Rear-wheel-drive examples such as the 350 and 450 Plus use one rear motor, while the 580 4Matic adds a front motor for all-wheel-drive traction and stronger acceleration.

Mercedes EQS trim levels sit on top of the technical version rather than changing it. The 450 Plus, for instance, appears as Platinum EV Plus and Platinum EV Plus AMG Line, where the AMG Line package mainly brings sportier styling and cabin details while the drivetrain stays identical.
Mercedes EQS battery capacity comes from a large lithium-ion pack mounted low in the floor, used by both the 450 Plus and the 580 4Matic. Real-world range depends on speed, climate and heating use, and DC fast charging suits long trips while overnight AC charging covers daily driving.
