The go-faster AMG EQS is the first mass-market electric AMG, and it’s quietly catching up with the firepower of its turbo V-8s.
Mercedes’ AMG performance arm excels at drawing prodigious power from internal combustion engines, especially rowdy V-8s, then tuning a car or SUV around that power. With the move to electric propulsion, AMG now turns its attention to electric motors and the skateboard platforms that house them, starting with the 2022 Mercedes-Benz AMG EQS.revealed in 2012—the AMG EQS is the first mass-market electric AMG.
On the road, the ride is firmer and more controlled than the notably soft EQS, but the car still feels like an electric version of an S-Class. Its main strength is an ability to smooth over the sharper edges to always deliver a comfortable ride. The steering is light, stable, and fairly quick, but between the steering and suspension, the AMG EQS doesn’t offer nearly as much road feel as theIt does, however, have as much or more power, and the AMG EQS performs better in a straight line than it does in corners. A pair of permanent magnet motors, one on each axle, team up for 649 hp and 700 lb-ft of torque.
The same can’t be said of the brakes. The main problem we have with the standard EQS is a mushy brake pedal. The pedal feels firmer here, but it’s still too soft and the blend of regenerative and friction braking can be unpredictable, sometimes requiring additional pressure to come to a stop. That’s a shame because the car has plenty of stopping power from big 15.4-inch front rotors with 6-piston calipers and 14.9-inch rear rotors with single-piston calipers.
