The Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV, the EV equivalent of the GLS, has been launched in India. It comes shortly after the German marque introduced the flagship all-electric offering: the EQS Maybach. Mercedes-Benz is offering the locally assembled EQS SUV in a single 580 4MATIC variant in our market, which is priced at Rs 1.41 crore (ex-showroom pan-India).
Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV Exterior
Being an EV, the EQS SUV features a closed-off grille (featuring the big Mercedes-Benz logo in the centre), which is flanked by sleek LED headlights. There’s also a connected LED DRL strip running the width of the bonnet and an aggressive-looking bumper.
In profile, you can notice the aerodynamically designed 19-inch alloy wheels and the flush-fitting door handles. The charging port is also located on the front fender of the EQS SUV. As there already exists an EQS sedan, the SUV version of it distinguishes itself by the squared roofline towards the rear. At the back, it has a minimalist look, with the main talking point being the connected LED lighting and a silver-finished skid plate rounding off the exterior design details.

Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV Interior
The EQS SUV’s interior is every bit of opulence one would expect at this price point. Step inside and your eyes are immediately drawn to the dashboard that features triple screens (called the MBUX Hyperscreen in Mercedes’s speak). Mercedes-Benz has even provided wooden inserts on the door pads and centre console, and is offering the electric SUV with leather upholstery. Mercedes-Benz offers the EQS SUV in a 3-row layout, which is sufficient to carry up to seven people on board.
