Replaced an older Mercedes-Benz with this one. Big step up in fuel economy; I'd like a little more rear headroom.

2026 Mercedes-Benz EQS review
Mercedes-Benz EQS: everyday electric done right. Illustrative review
8.3/10 OffLot expert score
The 2026 Mercedes-Benz EQS is a strong contender in its class. Comfortable front seats on long trips; efficient in mixed driving. Base engine feels adequate, not quick and rear headroom is tight for tall passengers, so test the trim you'd actually buy. Starting around $105,000, it costs more than most direct rivals.

Owner reviews · 4.3 of 5 from 3 owners
The fuel economy is the standout. My only gripe is road noise on the highway, which I knew going in.
We cross-shopped three others and this won on fuel economy. road noise on the highway is the trade-off.
