EQS 450 4MATIC

The Mercedes-Benz EQS 450 4MATIC is a 5-seat saloon with all-wheel drive, sold new from 2023 to 2024, when it cost €113,359 in Germany, and now only available second-hand. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 5.6 seconds, quicker than 62% of the electric cars on sale in the UK. Its estimated real-world range is 379 miles (610 km) in a mix of town, country and motorway driving. That puts it 8th of the 471 electric cars on sale in the UK for range, and 5th of 48 saloons.

It uses around 3.5 mi/kWh (178 Wh/km), about the same as the typical EV on sale (3.5 mi/kWh). The usable battery holds 108.4 kWh and on a rapid charger it averages 169 kW between 10% and 80%. With one 15-minute charging stop, it can cover an estimated 421 miles (677 km) at motorway speeds.

It has a heat pump, which helps preserve range in cold weather, and it does not support vehicle-to-load (V2L). The battery uses NCM chemistry, which stores more energy for its weight than LFP.

Second-hand in Germany, a 2023 example is estimated at €43,100–€47,600 and a 2024 one at €53,800–€60,600, based on typical EV depreciation. After typical battery wear, a 2023 car should still manage about 357 miles of real-world range. These are estimates, not valuations: check real prices before you buy.
