Mercedes-Benz’s EQS SUV retails for Rs 1.41 crore (ex-showroom) in India. The German company ships its flagship electric SUV, which is fully knocked down (CKD) at its Chakan factory, as a locally constructed kit to India. The battery-powered SUV is available in a single, fully equipped 580 4MATIC variant.
With the release of the EQS SUV and the late-year launch of the EQS sedan, India is currently the only market outside of the USA to receive two locally-assembled BEVs. The EQS SUV and sedan actually share a lot of similarities in terms of look, features, and technological specs because they are both constructed on the same platform.

The faux grille is flanked by two LED headlights connected by a DRL strip that runs the length of the bonnet. The side profile seems minimalistic thanks to flush-fitting door knobs and clean lines across the shoulder.
