Overview
The Mercedes-Benz EQS is a five-seat luxury electric sedan, launched in this generation in 2022. It suits buyers after a long-range, large Mercedes EV rather than an entry-level electric sedan. Prices start from RM648,888, with rear-wheel-drive EQS 450+ AMG Line and all-wheel-drive EQS 500 4Matic CKD versions available.
EQS in 2026 — what's new
For 2026, the EQS receives a facelift with an 800V electrical system and steer-by-wire technology. The updated car has a claimed maximum range of up to 926 km on the WLTP cycle. The Malaysian range continues with the EQS 450+ AMG Line, which has a 107.8 kWh battery and 782 km claimed range, and the EQS 500 4Matic CKD, with a 108.4 kWh battery and 696 km claimed range.
Which variant to buy
Most buyers should take the EQS 500 4Matic CKD at RM648,888. It costs exactly the same as the RM648,888 EQS 450+ AMG Line, but gets 443 hp and all-wheel drive instead of 328 hp and rear-wheel drive. Pick the EQS 450+ AMG Line if the 782 km claimed range matters more than outright performance and traction; the 500 4Matic’s claimed range is 696 km. Both are five-seat, single-speed electric sedans.
Verdict
The EQS is priced at the upper end of the electric-sedan market, sitting just RM1,000 below the Mercedes-Benz AMG EQE and below the BMW i7, but far above models such as the Tesla Model 3. Its case rests on substantial battery capacity, claimed range and a choice between 782 km rear-drive efficiency or 443 hp all-wheel-drive performance. The identical pricing makes the 500 4Matic the stronger specification on paper.
