Mercedes-AMG: Spice from Affalterbach 🎥
POWER FROM THE BATTERY With the new EQS 53 4Matic+, Mercedes-AMG is launching into the all-electric future of Driving Performance. The first battery-electric AMG production model is based on the Mercedes EQ architecture.
The sound was and remains an important part of the typical AMG driving experience.
The EQS 53 4Matic+ luxury sedan with a power output of up to 560 kW has been newly developed or refined in all relevant areas in Affalterbach.
Philipp Schiemer, Chairman of the Board of Management of Mercedes-AMG GmbH: "The AMG EQS 53 is the first all-electric ambassador in the performance segment made in Affalterbach. It is tailor-made for enthusiasts who are looking for a combination of innovative electromobility, luxurious ambience and agile driving dynamics."
From zero to 100 km/h in 3.4 seconds
At the heart of the Mercedes-AMG EQS 53 4Matic+ is the performance-oriented drive concept with two engines. It offers the fully variable AMG 4Matic+ all-wheel drive, which optimally distributes the drive power to the wheels under all driving conditions.
The basic version achieves a total output of 484 kW (658 hp), and maximum torque is 950 Nm. With the Dynamic Plus package, which is available on request, the maximum output rises to up to 560 kW (761 hp) in Race Start mode with boost function.
The e-machine torque then reaches 1020 Nm. Thus, the car accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.4 seconds. The top speed is limited to 250 km/h.
Electric motors on front and rear axle
The AMG-specific electric motors on the front and rear axles are permanently excited synchronous machines with a good balance of power increase, efficiency and noise behavior. The machine on the rear axle is particularly powerful.
The three-stage selectable recuperation power of up to 300 kW is also remarkable. The 108 kWh battery can be charged with up to 200 kW at fast-charging stations. This allows the 2655-kilogram vehicle to be recharged with power for up to 300 kilometers in just over 19 minutes.
And that is also important: AMG vehicles have always stood for emotionality. The EQS 53 brings a new, sonorous sound to electric driving, generated with special speakers, bass actuator and a sound generator.
