A Closer Look at the 2022 EQS Performance

You’ve had a chance to get familiar with the EQS 0–60 times, horsepower ratings, and torque outputs—but there’s more to this model than the spec sheet can reveal. If you truly want to understand what sets the EQS apart, you’ll need to find out how it handles the roads of East Greenwich and Cranston, where all of the following features can be deployed to full effect:

• Intelligent Energy Recovery with paddles
• ECO Assist feature
• DYNAMIC SELECT® driving modes
• AIRMATIC®® suspension
• Adaptive Damping System Plus (ADS Plus)
• Electromechanical power steering
• 10-degree rear axle steering

It’s also worth noting that the EQS 580 4MATIC® model’s dual motor setup allows for an infinitely variable torque distribution between the front and rear axles. So, you won’t just be able to accelerate more quickly. You’ll also be able to handle any conditions on Warwick and Providence roads.
