Meet the 2026 Mercedes EQE SUV: Luxury Goes Electric
The Electric SUV That Acts Like a Proper Mercedes
Electric luxury used to feel like a science experiment. This Mercedes makes it feel like an easy Sunday cruise instead. The brand built its midsize electric SUV for drivers who want quiet power, a roomy cabin, and a three-pointed star that still turns heads at the valet stand.
- The lineup runs from a range-focused rear-drive model up to a 617-hp AMG® rocket.
- Range tops out at an EPA-estimated 302 miles on the entry EQE 320+.
- Every version seats five and charges from 10 to 80 percent in about 32 minutes.
How the Lineup Splits Up
The 2026 Mercedes EQE SUV comes in three setups, and each one points at a different kind of buyer. You start with the EQE 320+ at $64,950. Step up to the EQE 320 4MATIC® for all-wheel grip at $67,450. At the top sits the wild card, the Mercedes-AMG® EQE SUV, which starts at $97,400 and turns a calm family hauler into something that pins you to the seat. All three ride on the same electric platform, so cabin space and core tech carry across every trim.

The EQE 320+ for Range Seekers
Want the most miles per charge? Then the 320+ is your pick. Its single rear motor makes 315 horsepower and 416 lb-ft of torque, and it sends all of that to the back wheels. That setup earns an EPA-estimated 302 miles from the 96.0-kWh battery, the highest number in the family. Zero to 60 takes 5.9 seconds, which feels plenty quick for daily driving. There’s a tradeoff, though. This rear-drive version skips all-wheel traction and isn’t rated to tow.
Adding Grip With the 320 4MATIC®
Live somewhere with real winters? The 320 4MATIC® adds a second motor up front for all-wheel drive. Power holds at 315 horsepower, but torque jumps to 564 lb-ft, so it pulls harder off the line even though the 0-60 time slips slightly to 6.2 seconds. Range drops to an EPA-estimated 253 miles from a 90.5-kWh battery, the price you pay for that extra hardware. You also gain an off-road mode and the ability to tow up to 3,500 pounds. For a lot of shoppers, the small step up in price over the base model makes this the easy middle choice.
The AMG® EQE for Speed Lovers
Now for the fun one. This one packs dual AMG® motors good for 617 horsepower and 701 lb-ft of torque. It hits 60 mph in 3.4 seconds, a figure that shames plenty of sports cars. AMG® also bolts on air suspension, rear-axle steering, 21-inch wheels, and a high-performance brake setup. The driving range sits at an EPA-estimated 230 miles, and towing climbs to 4,000 pounds. You pay a lot more for the AMG®, but you’re buying a real performance SUV that happens to run on electrons.
Tech and Cabin Touches Across the Board
Inside, the EQE SUV feels every bit the Mercedes. A 12.3-inch driver display pairs with a 12.8-inch OLED touchscreen running MBUX, and you can talk to the car with a quick “Hey, Mercedes.” Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto come standard, along with a panorama roof and 64-color ambient lighting. Want the big screen? That wider MBUX Hyperscreen stretches glass across the whole dash, and it’s standard on the AMG®. Heated front seats, a power liftgate, and Mercedes-Benz High-Power Charging access round out the everyday perks.
Matching the EQE SUV to Your Daily Drive
So which one belongs in your garage? If you mostly commute and want the longest legs, the 320+ does the job and saves you money. Snow, rain, or the odd dirt road? Then the 320 4MATIC® earns its keep with all-wheel footing and light towing. And if you treat every on-ramp like a launch pad, the AMG® version is tough to pass up. Match the trim to how you really drive, and you’ll be glad you did.
