Mercedes is giving the EQS a nip and tuck for the 2025 model year. In doing so, the company infuses some SClass cues into its flagship electric car. The styling changes are limited to the front fascia where the BMW i7 rival receives a redesigned faux grille with horizontal chrome slats to mimic the company's rangetopping combustion car.

The standing star is also new and echoes the hood ornament of the traditional SClass. Going forward, the EQS will have the AMG Line front bumper standard. Since this is only a facelift, the controversial egglike shape remains. Even with this update though, the EQS doesn't look as imposing as the venerable SClass.

Within the discreetly revised body is an upgraded battery with a usable capacity of 118.0 kilowatthours instead of the previous 108.4 kilowatthours. That should unlock a bit more range compared to the 2024 EQS, which the EPA has rated at 352 miles for the rearwheeldrive EQS 450+. The allwheeldrive EQS 450 and 580 models do 345 miles on a single charge. The least efficient of the lot is the AMG EQS, at only 305 miles.
