Mercedes Benz EQS Lease Superthread - 1

Setup an LLC in another state then.

It’s just as good. Only difference is really the hyperscreen. Personally, not a huge fan of it, gets old pretty fast. Prefer the wood trim a lot better. Hyperscreen also reduces visibility due to raised dash.

hows the drive and acceleration? I really want to get into a EQE AMG if I can, but some good deals on the 450 at the moment.

If you want power go with 580, actually they are almost the same monthly because they have better rates and more incentives.
I have 450 SUV and it is pretty good imo. There is no revving, no shifting, no turbo lag etc. so it feels faster than actually it is (especially lower speeds). On paper it would be slower than your C43. If you are looking for acceleration on higher speeds 580 would be better,

Thanks! Looks like i missed out on the 580’s up here in Norcal from the major dealers here on LH, but considering the 450.

450 will be a lot slower than C43. Not to mention handling like a boat.

Yes probably about a second slower to 60 if we’re talking about 4MATIC

I thought I was! But did find it on Edmunds, looks like my dealer is marking up to 0.00152 from 0.00078.

No 580s available at Walnut Creek?

The naming scheme is very confusing. There are 2 "450"s , the 450+ RWD has over 300 miles of EPA range and is the cheapest but also very slow, like 6+ s to 60. the 450 4Matic is the dual motor AWD and quite a bit faster. Most northern dealers don’t stock many or any RWDs.

This is a 450 4 Matic that I’m looking at.

If you want power and driving pleasure, EQ won’t really deliver, but an Amg eqe is likely the closest you will get. Eqs is going to drive like a boat be it 450 or 580.

Remember you are driving a car, not driving msrp, so just because it has higher msrp doesn’t mean you have to get it.

Definitely… probably have to look at the BMW’s, e-tron GT, or Taycan.

What’s the overall consensus on a pretty base EQS 450 vs a fully loaded EQE 500?

If monthly cost were the same, would you still prefer the EQS?

Louisville has a bunch, Willoughby (OH) Dealers also have a bunch of loaners

Are incentives currently larger in CA? Having trouble getting near these discounts in the South

If you are getting any sort of LH worthy deal, EQS lease should be cheaper than EQE.

Personally, if we are talking sedans, I prefer the lift back on EQS.

She just added the last batch.
