Mercedes-Benz has released a preview of its 2025 EQS electric vehicle<\/a> model that comes with a new grille design featuring chrome slats against a deep black background along with a standing star on its hood. With just those changes, the upcoming EQS more clearly resembles Benz’s S-Class vehicles, its counterpart in the automaker’s non-EV lineup, than its predecessor<\/a> does. In addition to the more traditional Benz look and upgrades that make its seats more comfortable, the 2025 EQS will also come with a larger battery.<\/p>\n Its new battery has a larger usable capacity of 118 kWh, compared to the older model’s 108.4 kWh. Of course, the higher the kWh, the longer an EV’s range is \u2014 the first EQS had an EPA-estimated 350 mile-range, so expect Mercedes to announce a longer range than that. The 2025 EQS will feature new regenerative braking software that the automaker says can recover more energy for use, as well. That will also contribute to a longer range, lesser use of the car’s brake discs and a better pedal feel.<\/p>\n The automaker hasn’t announced how much the model would cost yet, but prices will likely start at $100,000-plus when it arrives at US dealerships later this year.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
