Mercedes-Benz is pushing the boundaries of electric vehicle innovation once again with the unveiling of the 2025 EQS Sedan. Building upon its already impressive all-electric portfolio, the 2025 EQS Sedan arrives with significant upgrades focused on extending range, refining its signature design, and elevating passenger comfort to new heights. Set to arrive at U.S. dealerships in 2025, this updated EQS Sedan is poised to solidify its position as a leader in the luxury electric vehicle segment.
All models of the 2025 EQS Sedan will benefit from a newly engineered, larger battery, increasing the usable capacity to a substantial 118 kWh. This significant enhancement directly translates to a greater electric range, allowing drivers to travel further on a single charge. Complementing the battery upgrade is new regenerative braking software. This advanced system maximizes energy recuperation, further contributing to the vehicle’s overall efficiency and extended range capabilities.
The brake system itself has also been thoughtfully addressed. In electric vehicles like the EQS Sedan, regenerative braking reduces the frequency of physical brake engagement. To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of the brake system, a specialized function has been implemented. This system automatically applies the brake pads to the discs periodically, maintaining their condition and responsiveness over time.
Modern Elegance Meets Iconic Mercedes-Benz Design
The EQS Sedan has always been recognized for its modern and aerodynamic silhouette, a hallmark of Mercedes-Benz’s all-electric lineage. For the 2025 model year, this design is further refined with a distinctive new front fascia. The signature deep black panel grille, which seamlessly integrates with the headlights, now features flush-mounted chrome slats. This subtle yet impactful change creates an elegant contrast, enhancing the vehicle’s sophisticated presence. Adding to the visual appeal is the iconic Mercedes-Benz standing star, now prominently positioned on the hood, a timeless symbol of automotive excellence. Completing the refreshed front aesthetic is a standard AMG Line bumper, injecting a touch of sporty sophistication into the EQS Sedan’s refined demeanor.
The interior of the 2025 EQS Sedan also receives subtle yet luxurious enhancements. Chrome accents now grace the climate control vents located on the B-pillars, adding a touch of premium detail. Rear passengers will appreciate the upgraded comfort pillows, now featuring elegant contrast stitching and refined Nappa leather piping, further elevating the cabin’s luxurious ambiance.
Enhanced Rear Passenger Comfort Redefined
Mercedes-Benz has placed a significant emphasis on rear passenger well-being in the 2025 EQS Sedan. Models equipped with the optional Pinnacle Trim and Executive Interior Package offer an unparalleled level of rear cabin luxury. A key feature is the front passenger seat’s ability to fold forward, maximizing legroom and creating a more spacious environment for second-row occupants. The rear seat backrest is now adjustable up to 38 degrees, allowing for a more relaxed and comfortable seating position.
Further enhancing the rear passenger experience are rapid heating rear seats, neck and shoulder heating, and pneumatic adjustment of the rear seat depth. These features work in harmony to provide personalized comfort and relaxation. Adding a touch of sophisticated ambiance, illuminated trim accents are seamlessly integrated into the back of the front seats, creating a refined and inviting atmosphere.
Even standard rear seats in the 2025 EQS Sedan benefit from enhanced comfort. The backrest angle is now electrically adjustable from 27 to 36 degrees, and an additional 0.2 inches of foam has been added to the rear seat backrest. This layered design not only enhances comfort but also visually emphasizes the individual seating areas, contributing to a more luxurious and personalized experience for all passengers.
Technological Advancements and Intelligent Features
The 2025 EQS Sedan continues to offer a suite of advanced technologies. The expansive MBUX Hyperscreen, now standard since the 2024 model year, dominates the dashboard, seamlessly merging three displays into a single curved 55-inch wide screen. A standard heat pump system further enhances climate comfort and efficiency by utilizing waste heat from the electric drive and battery to heat the interior, reducing battery consumption and improving range.
For 4MATIC all-wheel-drive models, the Disconnect Unit (DCU) intelligently decouples the front axle motor in low-load situations, switching to 4×2 driving mode to maximize efficiency and extend range. The regenerative braking system has been further optimized for increased deceleration and energy recuperation. Mercedes-Benz has also refined the braking system itself, starting with the 2024 EQS Sedan, for improved pedal feel and responsiveness.
Many of the EQS Sedan’s features and updates are delivered via over-the-air (OTA) technology, ensuring the vehicle remains at the forefront of innovation. These updates include features like DolbyÒ Atmos, the YouTube web app, and a digital travel guide, continuously enhancing the user experience. Convenience is further amplified by the standard KEYLESS-GO Comfort package and Digital Vehicle Key, allowing for easy locking, unlocking, and even key sharing via compatible devices.
The advancements introduced in the 2025 EQS Sedan will also extend to other models within the Mercedes-Benz EVA 2 electric architecture family, including the EQS SUV, EQE Sedan, and EQE SUV, demonstrating Mercedes-Benz’s commitment to continuous innovation across its entire electric lineup.
The 2025 Mercedes-Benz EQS Sedan is more than just an electric vehicle; it’s a statement of luxury, innovation, and sustainable mobility, further solidifying Mercedes-Benz’s leadership in the evolving automotive landscape.
