LED Headlamps

The optional DIGITAL LIGHT headlamp technology with projection function in the EQE Saloon from Mercedes-EQ complements the MULTIBEAM LED headlamps with their high-resolution lighting technology. The light acts in an anticipatory manner, adapting to the course of the road and the traffic situation.

DYNAMIC SELECT

DYNAMIC SELECT provides you with a choice between the drive programs ECO, COMFORT, SPORT and INDIVIDUAL. The SPORT mode mobilises the power of the electric drive with even more spirit. Regardless of the driving mode, you can set the braking energy recuperation rate via the steering wheel gearshift paddles.

Parking Package with 360° camera

The 360° camera provides you with an all-round view including a bird’s eye view. This way you can confidently tackle narrow, awkward and confusing parking situations. Active Parking Assist with PARKTRONIC supports you in looking for a parking space, as well as in entering and exiting an end-on parking space.

Eco Assist

ECO Assist provides support in terms of anticipatory driving. The system analyses e.g. whether there is a vehicle driving ahead, or perhaps a speed limit or downhill gradient coming up, and therefore displays a recommendation to take your foot off the accelerator pedal.

Flush door handles

These door handles blend seamlessly into the vehicle’s bodywork and round off the elegant appearance of your EQE Saloon. The handles extend automatically when you are in the immediate vicinity of the vehicle to unlock it. As soon as you lock the vehicle or drive off, the handles retract.

Hands-free Boot Access

The HANDS-FREE ACCESS function allows contactless, fully automatic opening and closing of the tailgate. When carrying the smart key, you can perform a kicking action in the detection area (at least 10cm below the centre of the bumper) to open and close the boot.

Charge Port

The charge port is located on the right side of the EQE, behind the passenger door. Park the EQE to ensure that the charge cable easily reaches the charge port.

With the EQE in Park, press on one side of the charge port cover and it will gently spring open revealing the waterproof cover.

LED rear lights in 3D helix design

A special highlight at the rear are the innovatively designed rear lights: their inner workings take the form of a curved and illuminated 3D helix.

Charging Guide for the EQE

When making the switch to an electric car, charging is probably seen as the most daunting aspect, but it doesn’t have to be! It’s actually very simple once you understand how it works. This no-nonsense guide takes you through exactly what you need to do, and be aware of, when charging your EQE. So let’s dive in!

Eqe Charge Bloc Evguide
Public Charger

Public Charging

Public chargers can be easily located by using navigation system in the EQE, or via an App. We recommend installing Zapmap; their comprehensive database maps over 95% of all public charging stations across the UK, allowing you to easily find over 40,000 places to charge whilst on the road.

Zapmap can be downloaded from the App Store or Google Play, just follow the links below to install on your device. Once downloaded you can use the interactive map to find the locations nearest to you, or plan your journey with charging stops with their handy Route Planner.

When searching for a charging location, look out for the voltage output level of the charge point as this relates to how fast your EQE will charge; the higher the level, the faster the charging experience:

Slow: With speeds below 6kW, slow charging can require 24 hours or more to complete a full charge. Convenient for short trips, but not practical for long journeys.

Fast: Achieving between 7kW to 22kW, fast charging can deliver a partial to complete charge in between 5-8 hours.

Rapid DC Chargers: Delivering between 22kW to 100kW, ideal for longer journeys requiring short stops to top up.

Ultra-Rapid DC chargers: The fastest way to charge an EV, Ultra-Rapid chargers provide power between 100kW and 350kW, allowing you to top up in as little as 20 minutes.

When you arrive at the charge point ensure you are using the correct charging cable before starting your charge session.

You are responsible for all charging costs, including any idle fees, when charging your EQE at a public charge point. Europcar is not responsible for any additional costs that may be incurred if charge points are out of use.
