2024 Mercedes-Maybach EQS SUV Gets 280 Miles Of EPA Range

The luxurious Mercedes-Maybach EQS SUV has received its EPA range and energy consumption rating, which reveals that it’s not that much different from the regular EQS SUV.

The 2024 Mercedes-Maybach EQS 680 4Matic SUV with standard 21-inch wheels has an EPA Combined range of 280 miles, only five miles or 1.8% less than the regular, all-wheel- drive EQS 580 4Matic SUV.

That’s a positive outcome, considering that usually, higher power output and/or the increased weight of better-equipped versions translate into a noticeably lower range.

The top-of-the-line Mercedes-Maybach EQS SUV has a dual-motor powertrain with a peak output of 484 kilowatts (vs. 385 kW in the regular EQS 580 4Matic SUV), while the battery pack appears to be the same 108.4-kilowatt-hour unit.

Energy consumption, including charging losses, of the 2024 Mercedes-Maybach EQS 680 4Matic with 21-inch wheels, is estimated at 76 MPGe or about 443 watt-hours per mile.

The result is 1.1% worse than in the case of the regular EQS 580 4Matic SUV, rated at 438 Wh/mi.
