Driving report Mercedes-Benz EQE SUV: He wants to live high

DConfidence in electric cars themselves also suffers a bit because technical progress is expected everywhere. And it also happens. That’s why interested parties rarely buy, in fact never rent a big electric hit. A revolution doesn’t have to happen overnight; they can also be small steps that are sometimes overlooked. Mercedes-Benz has given its EQE SUV electric sedan a 90 kWh battery to launch. Now there are 96 kWh on board ready for use, which everyone is happy to be taken by anyone who often likes to travel, which, let’s say right away, is a pleasant way to get around in this star model.

When the SUV was placed in front of the door of the editorial office, we first thought: So big, do you need that? After the first hundred kilometers we found: easy, well, you can use it. And when we measured, we knew: At 4.86 meters, the SUV is nine centimeters shorter than the sedan, and the new E-Class, which has its combustion engines on a different platform, is also longer in length, and thus clean 5 of BMW even breaks the five meter mark. So before any unthinking excitement can explode again, the minivan moves on. Welcome.
