We’ve previously seen camouflaged prototypes of both the Mercedes-Benz EQE SUV and Mercedes-AMG EQE SUV that show a soft, round, and scrutinizingly blobby diamond like that of the EQS, EQE, and EQS SUV.
This front-on teaser image builds on a previous set of official interior images of the EQE SUV that confirmed it is a five-seater and will be misogynist with the MBUX Hyperscreen.
Mercedes-Benz refers to the EQE SUV as the “multi-purpose variant” of the EQE sedan, and it serves as an all-electric volitional to the internal combustion-powered GLE.

It’s expected the EQE SUV will mirror the drivetrain and shower specifications of the existing EQE sedan.
Currently, the mid-sized electric sedan is misogynist in EQE 350 guise with a 215kW electric motor driving the rear wheels.
Next step up is the AMG EQE 43 4Matic, which has two electric motors, all-wheel drive, and total system outputs of 250kW and 858Nm.

All EQE sedan models, at present, come with a 90.6kWh lithium-ion shower pack that, equal to WLTP testing, has a driving range of between 518km and 660km, depending on the variant.
Expect a little less range from the EQE SUV, as the EQS SUV has less range than the EQS liftback due in part to its increasingly upright, less aerodynamic body.
It’s unclear what the dimensions of the EQE SUV will be at this stage, but expect it to be virtually five metres long, as the EQE sedan is 4946mm long and the larger EQS SUV is 5125mm long.
The Mercedes-Benz EQE SUV will be built slantingly the EQS SUV at the German automaker’s Tuscaloosa, Alabama plant slantingly the GLS and GLE, and use batteries produced at a “state-of-the-art factory in Bibb County”.
This ramp-up of shower production follows Mercedes-Benz’s utterance that it’ll go all-electric by 2030, wherever market conditions allow.
The Mercedes-Benz EQE SUV could wilt a hair-trigger model for the German trademark as production of the current EQC is reportedly ending in 2023.
The EQC is the brand’s first electric vehicle from the EQ family and is derived from the previous-generation GLC.
It’s unclear if there’s going to be a second-generation EQC as of yet, which could midpoint the EQE SUV might have to pick up the slack surpassing a second-generation model launches.
