Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV Vs BMW i5 FAQs

The ex-showroom price of the Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV ranges from ₹1.34 crore to ₹1.48 crore. The on-road price can start from around ₹1.41 crore and go up to ₹1.72 crore, depending on the city and variant.

The EQS SUV is available in two variants: the EQS 450 5 Seater and the EQS 580 4MATIC.

Both variants of the EQS SUV are equipped with a large 122 kWh lithium-ion battery pack. This massive battery not only gives it an impressive driving range but also ensures strong performance, making the SUV capable of handling long highway journeys with ease while keeping charging stops fewer.

The EQS 450 5 Seater produces 360 PS and 809 Nm of torque, while the EQS 580 4MATIC, with its dual-motor setup, delivers a combined output of 536 PS and 858 Nm of torque. In everyday terms, both are incredibly powerful, with the 580 offering sports car–like acceleration in a big luxury SUV body, while the 450 still has more than enough punch for quick overtakes and effortless cruising.

Yes, both the EQS 450 and EQS 580 variants sold in India come with Mercedes-Benz's 4MATIC all-wheel-drive system. This gives power to all four wheels for better grip, helping the heavy electric SUV stay stable in rain, on rough patches, or when cornering at higher speeds.

The EQS SUV is primarily a 5-seater in India, but the EQS 580 4MATIC variant is available with a 7-seater configuration. This makes it more versatile, giving families the option of extra seats when needed, while still keeping the comfort and luxury expected from a flagship Mercedes.

The EQS SUV offers a substantial boot space of 610 litres, enough to fit four large trolley bags or a mix of big suitcases and smaller bags, making it perfect for family road trips or long vacations without worrying about luggage space.

The EQS SUV has received a 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating. It is equipped with up to 11 airbags, including frontal airbags for the rear passengers.

Yes, the EQS SUV comes with air suspension as a standard feature, which offers a smooth and comfortable ride.

The EQS SUV is the SUV counterpart to the EQS sedan. The SUV offers more interior space, a taller driving position, and a more practical body style, while the sedan is more focused on aerodynamic efficiency and performance.

The BMW i5 (M60 xDrive) ex-showroom price in India is ₹1.20 Crore. On-road price will be higher, depending on your city (taxes, registration, insurance).

BMW claims a range of up to 516 km on a full charge (ARAI / WLTP standards) with the BMW i5. Real-world range will be lower if you use AC a lot, drive in city traffic or do many fast-starts.

Since the BMW i5 is electric, there’s no petrol/diesel cost. If we assume electricity rate as ₹9/unit (₹9 per kWh): Cost per km ≈ ₹9 × 0.1626 = ₹1.46 per km. That’s much cheaper than many petrol luxury sedans (which often cost ₹7-₹12 per km). But you must have reliable charging at home or work.

Length: ~ 5060 mm, Width: ~ 1900 mm, Height: ~ 1505 mm, Boot space: ~ 490 litres. So yes, it feels luxurious and spacious. But with a length of over 5 metres and width close to 2 metres, squeezing into tight Old City lanes or narrow parking might stress your driving skills.

1. DC fast charging (10-80%) takes about 30 minutes on a 200-205 kW charger. 2. AC charging (0-100%) with a wallbox will take around 4.1-4.2 hours.

This car is for people who: 1. Want prestige, performance, comfort and can afford the premium EV segment. 2. Live in cities or suburbs where charging infrastructure (home and fast chargers) is available. 3. Expect luxury and tech, not just wheels: you want stylish interiors, good sound system, advanced safety. 4. Don’t mind compromising a bit on ground clearance and maneuvering in tight spaces.

Electric motors need less frequent mechanical servicing: no oil changes, fewer parts. But still aftersales, battery health, wear & tyres cost. Running cost per km is much lower as above. But initial cost is very high (price, import duties). Also note that Insurance for luxury EVs tends to be expensive.

Some alternatives for luxury electric sedans / high-end EVs: Mercedes-Benz EQE sedan Audi e-tron GT Tesla Model S (if/where available) Porsche Taycan
