The new electric crossover Mercedes EQE 2023 will debut on October 16.
On the same day we will also see the AMG version of this model. We still don’t know some details about the powertrain.
However, the EQE sedan may provide a clue. The German company said that the crossover will get at least one version from AMG, which will be equipped with two electric motors and the ability to activate the all-wheel drive system.
In addition, the car will get rear-wheel steering, unique elements of external design and interior.
Most likely, in the future we will be shown a less powerful crossover EQE 43, which in terms of powertrain will be identical to the sedan.
Most likely, there will be a choice of rear or all-wheel drive and different power levels.
We first saw the updated EQE in August when the automaker showed us the interior of the new model.
At the same time, it was said that the official premiere will be in October.
Thanks to those teasers we know that the dashboard of the crossover will have a hyper screen.
Of course, the crossover will offer more interior space and cargo space, as well as provide better handling.
So this model is sure to be quite popular in the market. The interior has an excellent atmosphere, because Mercedes designers have found a great combination of colors and materials for trim.
On the outside, we’ll see sleek headlights, a massive grille and other elements from the brand’s electric cars.
Nothing has been said about the launch of sales yet. It is possible that they will start before the end of this year. The EQE is below the larger EQS.
Despite the fact that the exterior of the crossover has not yet shown in the official photos, we can get an idea of how it will look from the spy shots, which showed the car almost unmasked.
It will have a fully enclosed grille, arrow-shaped headlights, a sleek front bumper and unified rear optics. Overall, many of the details are similar to the rest of the company’s lineup.
Based on the fact that the EQE crossover is essentially just a slightly overhauled and overpriced version of a fellow sedan, we can assume that their powertrain options will be the same.
This means that there will be a rear-wheel drive version with 288 hp, as well as all-wheel drive version with 677 hp.
Foreign auto experts predict that the range will be replenished with 469 hp modifications.
All-wheel steering of the crossover will be included as standard equipment.
