2022 Mercedes-Benz EQS Futuristic Interior Fully Revealed In Official Images

[kobayashiGT]

Don't call it an electric S-Class. The EQS is a totally different breed.

The future of Mercedes-Benz vehicles is almost here, arriving with the all-new 2022 Mercedes EQS. Despite not being the first EQ model to be introduced, the flagship EQS is the first model to be based on the company's modular architecture for luxury and executive-class electric vehicles.

As such, designers at Stuttgart were given the liberty to create a totally fresh interior design and experience for the driver and occupants. The cabin's production version is totally different from the EQS Concept, though, so forget that and scroll down to see the bevy of official images provided.

The new MBUX Hyperscreen is at the forefront of that design evolution, presented by three large displays under a single scratch-resistant glass that covers the entire dashboard. Of note, the system utilizes eight CPU cores, 24 GB of RAM, and 46.4 GB per second RAM bandwidth.

Though not seen in the official images, the base model EQS not equipped with the MBUX Hyperscreen will have a different layout. Common on both, though, is the lack of a transmission tunnel.

Beyond the MBUX Hyperscreen, Mercedes said that the EQS is made to be experienced with virtually all human senses, namely visual, auditory, olfactory, and haptic. Yes, olfactory, as the EQS comes with High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filter that cleans and filter outside air entering the cabin. As part of the Air-Balance Package, the EQS has active fragrancing as well, which comes with a new fragrance called No.6 Mood Linen.

In terms of haptic perception, the MBUX Hyperscreen offers haptic feedback that uses force feedback on both the center and passenger displays. There are also 12 actuators located under the touchscreen surfaces, which can trigger a tangible vibration upon contact. Other elements in the cabin that excite the sense of touch are the materials used and knowing Mercedes, you know what to expect.

Obviously, the eyes are among the primary focus of the EQS's interior design. Apart from the visual play on textures, a play on ambient lighting has been employed in the entire cabin. The door panels, on the other hand, are said to be borrowed from the interior design of modern living spaces. Interestingly, the needles on the digital gauges show a laser sword effect.

Auditory stimulation starts even before the driver and passengers enter the 2022 EQS, with sounds greeting them as they approach and enter the vehicle. Apart from the 15-speaker Burmester surround sound system, there are two soundscapes that come standard with the vehicle called Silver Waves and Vivid Flux, while driving sounds, which change depending on the driving mode and other dynamic inputs from the driver, are optional and produced by interior speakers.

More importantly, the EQS is available with soothing sounds called Forest Glade, Sounds of the Sea, and Summer Rain that can be selected during stop-overs to promote relaxation. In other words, Mercedes wants you to recharge your body as you recharge the EQS's battery.

Speaking of charging, while not mentioned in the recent lengthy press release, Mercedes announced before that there will be 500,000 supported Mercedes Me Charge locations worldwide, including over 200,000 of those being in Europe. The EQS will also have a range of over 435 miles (700 kilometers) in the WLTP test.

The 2022 Mercedes EQS will be launched in Europe this August. We'll know more details by then, but we know that it will be built alongside the S-Class and Maybach S-Class in the carbon-neutral "Factory 56" at the Sindelfingen plant.

Very classy integration of the touchscreens without any physical bezels in sight, way better than touchscreens being protruding out on the dashboard like an afterthought. I think this is befitting of an electric S-Class. 

"The centre console can be flexibly positioned in the interior..." - It will be interested to see how this is being executed.

Call me old school. Feel that there are too much electronics. A 50 years old mercs now can still function. For this EQS, don't think it can last beyond 20 years with outdated software, obsolete hardware etc.

2022 Mercedes-Benz EQS Spied Finally Revealing Some Sheet Metal

It’ll be large and luxurious when it arrives.

Mercedes seems eager to pull the wrap off its EQS electric sedan. The company is already teasing it, showing off its slick interior in several configurations as development continues. A new batch of spy photos shows the model finally losing some more of its camouflage, revealing a good chunk of the sheet metal underneath for the first time. However, the EQS continues to wear camo over the front and rear fascias.

The new spy shots reveal a smooth-sided sedan with a swooping greenhouse and flush door handles. The roofline blends into the rear liftback design, while the front features a unique cut in the fenders that give the sedan a massively wide, one-piece front hood. There aren’t many surprises on the outside as Mercedes teased the exterior earlier this month, giving us some idea of what to expect.

Why they need to add the martini rosso lines on the dash?

For those who dislike the dash be occupied by display screen, I am please to share that the standard version of EQS will have a conventional looking dash.

As long the thong still der😂😂

Side view is very bad - neither a sedan, fastback nor wagon. Just like Panamera. 

And someone forgot about the speedo and just double sided taped a tablet. 

[Lethalstrike]

The screens in action, a lot of showroom appeal and some people might like that. 

The EQS is more of a cab forward 4 door coupe style exterior design. Is it good? I don't know but at least its a differentiation vs the conventional 3-box design S-Class sedan.
