Two new standard innovations launch with the EQE SUV to improve range: a heat pump and an intelligent powertrain management system. The heat pump makes the system work efficiently under certain conditions since the heat from the electric drive (inverter and electric motor) and also the high-voltage battery can be used to heat the interior. This reduces the draw on battery power for the heating system, thus increasing the range. The second innovation is an all-new intelligent powertrain management system that monitors at 160 times per second, if the front electric motor is necessary. If not, a clutch disconnects or re-engages the front motor in 100 milliseconds. The decoupling of the front drive unit reduces drag and improves range.

EQE SUV customers are provided with the use of charging stations from a nationwide network through Mercedes me Charge, which offers a seamless integrated payment function with simple billing processes. Customers also benefit from the Mercedes-Benz USA collaboration with Electrify America that provides an unlimited number of 30-minute DC Fast Charging sessions throughout the entire Electrify America network at no additional cost for the first two years, from account activation.
