I think tires probably have a bigger affect than the wheels themselves, but together I’d imagine you could probably improve efficiency by around 10% with a different wheel/tire combo
Got to see an EQE SUV at my MB dealer. Superb packaging and comfort. It even has a big cargo area. It's definitely another EV homerun. The AMG version must be amazing! BTW I know it's a range test, but a few driving impressions would have been nice...
Good review. I think you are probably right that many people would drive at 70 mph not 65 and would use a low AC setting. The hyper milers would try to optimize the range and maybe get another 10 -- 20.
I’m also curious. I have 3700 miles on my 350 4matic. According to the Mercedes app I’m getting 2.7 mpkWh. If my battery is 90kWh, maybe 250 miles? Some portion of the mileage has been with the acceleration increase feature and I’ve not been accelerating gently.
It's the width and high performance rubber / tread of the tires that's hurting the range. It's increasing the rolling resistance in favor of higher traction for the AMG line. I'd bet even the 350 AWD can get over 300 miles.
Thanks for reviewing the MB EV line. I'm holding out for the '24s, with the expectation that range and max charging speed will be better. Case in point the upcoming Audi Q6 etron.
Great content and nice result, Ryan! 263 miles of range at 70mph is pretty decent. I'd like to see how it does on the 10% Challenge. Is there a backlog on the 10% Challenge content because the Mustang Mach-E 4X still hasn't come out yet.
@@Wasabi9111 I get 250 in my Model Y and up to 300 in the 3. For us thats enough. We need a break every 2 hours max. Thats 200 km or 125 miles. Every second Supercharger then. We get a few thousand more in the next years, maybe i can skip and jump 3 or 4 in 2025 when visiting the parents in Poland? We'll see.
Very poor efficiency compared to the larger EQS SUV. 2.92 miles per kWh versus 3.47 on the larger siblings. Maybe the fact that this is an AMG (larger wheels, maybe less efficient motors) and some environmental variables like wind.
Max eco settings and gentle acceleration doesn't do us any good. Drive it normally, with AC on. That is the range that real consumers will want to know.
Ty Ryan, nice video. Knowing Kyle from his videos, he would have kept driving it till 0% state of charge, squeezing few extra miles out of the battery, and ending up on the side of the road or pushing the car manually closer to the charger. You on the other hand, played it safe 👍👌.
So sad that tesla thought it was a good idea to stick a 60 kW battery in Model X ... yeah yeah yeah... it was a 75 kW but you get the point. Even the 75 was a lie... it has only 65 kW usable. Today's 100d can only get you about 250 miles. The lies need to end.
Hey Ryan, just to let you know the EQ vehicles have about 3 kWh buffer at 0. After which there is still 1-2kWh which let’s you do the Nio crawl. Great test BTW
I've been driving an EQE SUV loaner while my EQS SUV gets repaired. Neither one is good with bumpy roads / pot holes. You WILL feel the bumps. The suspension is stiff even in comfort mode! The EQS's massaging seats features a weak massage. So if you're looking for a plush ride and with a good deep quality massage, look elsewhere.
Nicely done, Ryan! 110 kW for charging at the bottom of the pack is unimpressive, but Mercedes might be keeping the curve conservative to not cannibalize sales of the EQS pricier sibling.
Thank you! It ramps up to the full 500 amps around 5 or 6%. Max charging speed is a bit lower than the EQS but that’s because the pack voltage is lower
Since it doesn't have a buffer, it kind of makes sense that it takes so long to ramp. A Tesla has a similar issue you take it close to dead, but it's dead is ~3kW Past 0%. If you take it all the way, it plays it very safe at the bottom. That being said, I think all cars need to have a buffer, but it'd be nice if they would state in the manual. Similar to how some cars have a "Reserve" mode in the gas guage so you can really monitor the effect of the car dying. Bjorn does a great job comparing how different EV handle being taken all the way to d-e-d.
Guys- so many of these videos can be 10-15 minutes shorter… “I’m merging”, “not sure why”, “we had 3 miles of construction”, “we’re getting off on Dicks” really? … sheesh.
275 miles is not enough at the price point and in 2023/2024 IMHO. I am disappointed. I recognize the trim level/equipment is impacting. Let's see some other versions in the future. Thanks!
I'm not normally a conspiracy theorist, but this is the second Mercedes they dropped off to Kyle with a speedometer that would seemingly overreport the range. I suggest only GPS distance on future range tests.

Would you expect 10-12% more range with 19”wheels? While the 21’s look great, they impede range.

Ryan is improving a lot as a presenter! Super cool to see, but super sad there's no drinking shots game as the first one hehehehehe
uh, what do you mean, uh?
@@anthonyc8499 That results in 2 shots, thank you!
Thanks. I’ve, uh, been working on it 😉
@@ryankassel5691 you're doing great! And thanks for the shots hehehe

Compared to Ford, Toyota or Polestar. Yes.
@@wolfgangpreier9160 or just about anyone
Thank you Ryan. Have you done an EQE SUV 4MATIC range test yet? Just curious how that is doing.
I’m also curious. I have 3700 miles on my 350 4matic. According to the Mercedes app I’m getting 2.7 mpkWh. If my battery is 90kWh, maybe 250 miles? Some portion of the mileage has been with the acceleration increase feature and I’ve not been accelerating gently.
@@adamaufdencamp5080 that is great mileage if you’re driving with a feather foot. How are you liking it so far?
These Mercedes are coming through with impressive range
If your speedometer is off by about 5% wouldn't your range be similarly off?
Logically yes, but more and more cars these days have dead accurate odometers but slightly optimistic speedos for the sake of safety
Continue to be very impressed by the range on these Merc EVs.
ruclips.net/video/SIpXkQhq1ps/видео.html shit already caught fire lol
Such a cutie
A test of the base trim EQE 350 RWD would be interesting, to see if it could crack the magic 300 mile mark, using one less motor and lighter wheels.
It's the width and high performance rubber / tread of the tires that's hurting the range. It's increasing the rolling resistance in favor of higher traction for the AMG line. I'd bet even the 350 AWD can get over 300 miles.
I feel better to know you get to push it before the range test😂
Why don’t you say how many miles per kWh?

Stay tuned!
90kWh and only 263 miles? No sir that is by far not enough.
@@wolfgangpreier9160the iX has much better range. These cars need at least 300

Not disagreeing but it actually went 40 miles farther than Mercedes claims on their website for the AMG EQE SUV
Max eco settings and gentle acceleration doesn't do us any good. Drive it normally, with AC on. That is the

Tire pressure used in test is too high. The actual tire pressure is in gas cap (not on B pillar).
AMG car drivers have traditionally not driven their cars like this. So the real-world results for them might be considerably worse....
Agree. I do have the EQE AMG Sedan and if I go crazy, I will get 70-80 miles MAX. More of 50 miles I would say lol
Pretty good range I'd say!
So sad that tesla thought it was a good idea to stick a 60 kW battery in Model X ... yeah yeah yeah... it was a 75 kW but you get the point. Even the 75 was a lie... it has only 65 kW usable.
Today's 100d can only get you about 250 miles. The lies need to end.
You have to correct the mileage due to running 70 mph gps and 73 mph on the car mileage!! 4.1% correction!!
Great job Ryan!
Thank you!
Hey Ryan, just to let you know the EQ vehicles have about 3 kWh buffer at 0. After which there is still 1-2kWh which let’s you do the Nio crawl.

You can increase the massage intensity...
Nokian suck in dry summer weather.
How long did it take to charge backup to 80%?
Nicely done, Ryan! 110 kW for charging at the bottom of the pack is unimpressive, but Mercedes might be keeping the curve conservative to not cannibalize sales of the EQS pricier sibling.
I can't speak for all consumers, but that sort of sandbagging would just drive me to another brand instead.
Thank you! It ramps up to the full 500 amps around 5 or 6%. Max charging speed is a bit lower than the EQS but that’s because the pack voltage is lower

Is this a 43 AMG or a 53 AMG?
That car is so sexy
Well done Ryan i really enjoyed your video 👍
是 EQ GLE？
No just eqe
Why are you power limited to 80% the entire time?
Comfort mode limits power
Guys- so many of these videos can be 10-15 minutes shorter… “I’m merging”, “not sure why”, “we had 3 miles of construction”, “we’re getting off on Dicks” really? … sheesh.
Watch at 1.5
Who drives, an AMG especially…at 70 mph? Come on brother- let’s do another test please going 80-100 like normal drivers..
275 miles is not enough at the price point and in 2023/2024 IMHO. I am disappointed. I recognize the trim level/equipment is impacting. Let's see some other versions in the future. Thanks!
It looks like this AMG model is equipped with impressive Hyperscreen. Correct?
I'm not normally a conspiracy theorist, but this is the second Mercedes they dropped off to Kyle with a speedometer that would seemingly overreport the range. I suggest only GPS distance on future range tests.
If the speedometer underreports the speed, the distance is underreported too.
AC charging figures should also be included in these reviews. 8kW 11.5kW and 19.5kW AC standards. Which am I getting?
9.6
You and Kyle have to start doing these test with real world conditions. Who in the west drives at 70? Take these up to 80 then we'll talk
70 is the most common highway speed limit. If your speed limits are higher, than consider that when they give the final range.
Check out our 10% challenges, too!
Very state and location dependent even in "the west", 70 mph is a good compromise and doesn't unnecessary favor smaller vehicles.
Is the eqe the one that catches fire for no reason?
Is the AMG EQE SUV made in Bremen or Alabama?
