Performance and Powertrain

In EQE 320+ SUV rear-wheel-drive configuration, the Permanently Excited Synchronous Motor (PSM) delivers 416 lb-ft of torque and a 5.9-second 0-60 mph time. Step up to the EQE 320 4MATIC® SUV with dual PSM motors and combined torque rises to 564 lb-ft, with a listed 0-60 mph time of 6.2 seconds.
The LYRIQ leads on rated horsepower at 365 hp versus the EQE SUV's 315 hp. The LYRIQ produces 325 lb-ft of torque in standard configuration, while the EQE SUV produces 416 lb-ft in rear-wheel-drive configuration and 564 lb-ft with 4MATIC® all-wheel drive.
Both vehicles use a single-speed direct-drive transmission. The EQE SUV's 4MATIC® system is fully variable, meaning torque distribution between the axles can adjust continuously. The LYRIQ is also offered with all-wheel drive.
The LYRIQ has a 326-mile EPA-estimated range in rear-wheel-drive configuration compared with 302 miles for the rear-wheel-drive EQE SUV, a difference of 24 miles.
Interior, Space, and Cargo
The LYRIQ has the larger listed cargo capacity. Its 28 cu ft behind the second row is twice the EQE SUV's 14 cu ft, while maximum cargo capacity measures 60.8 cu ft in the LYRIQ and 55 cu ft in the EQE SUV. The LYRIQ is also 5.2 inches longer overall.
The EQE SUV cabin is built around the MBUX experience. The 12.8-inch Central OLED Touchscreen uses a portrait layout, while the 12.3-inch Digital Instrument Cluster completes the cockpit. Standard heated front and rear seats, a panoramic roof, heated steering wheel, and interior ambient lighting come fitted across both the EQE 320+ SUV and EQE 320 4MATIC® SUV.
The LYRIQ features a 33-inch curved Horizon Display, providing more total screen area than the EQE SUV's paired displays. The LYRIQ also includes multicolor 126-color LED Radiance Lighting and a panoramic SkyGlass roof with power shade as standard.

Technology and Safety
The EQE SUV runs on MBUX with the "Hey, Mercedes" voice recognition system, MBUX Navigation with Electric Intelligence and Active Range Monitoring, wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto®, and remote start. The PRESAFE® Occupant Protection System is standard and can prepare certain vehicle systems when a potential collision is detected. The standard Parking Package includes a Surround View System with cameras on all four sides. Blind-Spot Alert, Active Brake Assist, and Active Lane Keeping Assist round out the active safety suite.
The LYRIQ includes standard Super Cruise, a hands-free driver-assistance system that operates on compatible mapped highways with driver attention monitoring. No comparable hands-free system is listed as standard on the EQE SUV. The LYRIQ also includes Google Built-In for native navigation and voice commands, over-the-air software updates, and Vehicle-To-Home (V2H) capability on compatible setups.

Value and Ownership

Their listed powertrain warranties differ: the EQE SUV carries a 4-year/50,000-mile powertrain warranty, while the LYRIQ carries an 8-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty. Buyers planning for longer-term ownership may want to consider that difference alongside the vehicles' other ownership features.

The Exclusive Trim package adds DIGITAL LIGHT LED headlamps, MBUX Augmented Video for Navigation, and active ambient lighting for buyers who want more.
The LYRIQ's standard content grows significantly from Luxury through Signature trims, with features like ventilated and massaging front seats, a digital rearview mirror, and a 23-speaker AKG audio system entering the picture at higher model levels.
