Mercedes-Benz EQE 2024
Carsguide Contributing Journalist Emily Agar had this to say at the time: The Mercedes-Benz EQE 300 has a massive cabin space and a standard features list that puts other entry-level luxury SUVs to shame. The power and driving range are good and the on-road manners excellent but the on-going costs are pretty high and the overall look isn’t as stylish as some of its competitors.Â

Mercedes-Benz EQE 2024 Interior
The EQE SUV's huge centre info-screen contains all the menu functions, and the animated dashboard combines with a standard head-up display. The column-mounted gear selector makes sense, but like many new Benzes, the steering wheel is awash with controls.
The Mercedes-Benz EQE sedan’s interior is gorgeous and highlights the fact that the comfort of its occupants come first. The mixture of leather trims, soft touchpoints and beautiful 64-way coloured ambient lighting exude a high-quality build.
The dashboard is uncluttered and features a lot of empty space but is headlined by the portrait-style touchscreen multimedia system and 12.3-inch digital instrument panel. The air vents resemble aeroplane jet turbines and there are enough chrome inserts to make it look like an expensive jewellery cabinet.
A black headliner comes standard, as does a panoramic sunroof.
