Door center panels and transitions from center console to instrument panel in BLACK MICROCUT with red stitching
AMG Performance steering wheel with Nappa leather trim, flat bottom section, perforated knobs on the palm rests, aluminum shift knobs for adjusting the different levels of energy recovery and buttons for setting individually AMG-specific settings
AMG sports pedals, AMG floor mats and door sill plates with "AMG" lettering (illuminated, interchangeable outer layer)

The Mercedes-AMG electric sport utility vehicle has a load capacity of 520 to 1,675 liters.

According to the identity line, the exterior structure also lives up to it: generous proportions, fewer joints between panels, continuous transitions and dynamic proportions, which reinforce its sporty character.  In addition, the aerodynamically optimized AMG light-alloy wheels, 21- or 22-inch in size, also stand out.

Technology can not be missed!  And Mercedes knows that
Inside, the driver has access to the MBUX Hyperscreen: a large curved glass screen.  With adaptive software, MBUX adapts completely to the user and offers customized suggestions for the various infotainment, comfort and vehicle functions.
The Dolby Atmos audio format takes the audio experience in the EQE SUV to a new level, in conjunction with the Burmester 3D surround sound system.  The current generation of driver assistance systems includes many driver assistance functions.  General standard equipment on the EQE SUV includes Attention Assist, Active Brake Assist, Active Lane Keeping Assist, Parking Package with Reversing Camera, and Cruise Limit Assist.  Systems status and activity are displayed in a full screen view on the dashboard.
The "Hello Mercedes" voice assistant has a very high ability to talk and learn by activating online services in the Mercedes me app.  In addition, some actions can be performed even without the "Hello Mercedes" voice activation command.  Moreover, she explains the functions of the car and, for example, can help when you are asked to explain how to connect a smartphone via bluetooth or where to find a first aid kit.

Mercedes is betting on a worthy drive for a sports car
The electric motors on the front and rear axles are permanent excitation synchronous motors.  In a permanently excited synchronous motor, the rotor of the AC motor is equipped with permanent magnets and therefore does not require a power supply.  The magnets - and thus the rotor - follow the rotating magnetic field in the stator windings.  In the EQE SUV, Mercedes-Benz uses a so-called attraction coil to obtain a particularly strong magnetic field.

A motor is called synchronous because the rotor rotates at the same speed as the stator's magnetic field.  The frequency in the power electronics transducers is set according to the driver's speed requirements.  Advantages of this concept include high energy density, high efficiency and high energy stability.  The motor on the rear axle is very powerful due to its six stages: it has two coils, each with three phases.
The quality of the EQE SUV's powertrain is sustained high power and excellent acceleration with no loss of power.  This includes an advanced thermal concept with some special features.
In addition to all this, the EQE SUV offers several levels of energy return.  In this process, the high-voltage battery is charged by converting mechanical rotary motion into electrical energy while decelerating or braking.  The driver can manually select the deceleration level (D+, D, D-) as well as the freewheel function using the paddles behind the steering wheel.  Also available: DAuto.
The ECO assistant also allows for optimal recovery depending on the situation;  Greater or less intense deceleration leads to maximum efficiency of the driving style.  The general standard equipment of the EQE SUV with driver assistance systems includes:

Attention assistant
Active Brake Assist
Active Lane Keeping Assist
Parking package with reversing camera
Speed ​​Limit Assistant

The status and activity of the driver assistance systems are displayed in a full screen display in the instrument cluster.

With EQE from Mercedes-AMG, charging will not be a problem
The advanced charging system is located above the rear axle of the EQE SUV.  It can be used to charge the battery via a single-phase or three-phase AC public charging station and has an optional charging power of up to 22 kW.
