Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV vs Tesla Model X

While Los Angeles, CA, buyers searching for a large electric SUV have more options than ever, two of the most popular vehicles in the quickly-growing segment are the Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV and the Tesla Model X. Both of these family-friendly SUVs are efficient, feature-filled, and boast seating for up to seven. However, some vital differences emerge when taking a closer look at both. Here’s why we think the Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV emerges as a clear winner.

Cabin Luxury Features

As full-size SUVs, the Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV and the Tesla Model X are focused on providing luxurious comfort features for the whole family. The Mercedes-Benz model features advanced personalization that utilizes AI to memorize hundreds of individual preferences, recognize fingerprints and faces, and even learn new information over time. For instance, if your rear seat passenger prefers a certain seat temperature level, they simply have to set it once, and the system will remember it for future journeys and respond to voice commands.

While the Tesla Model X also has a seven-seat cabin, it lacks an AI component with natural language understanding. You also won’t find second-row touchscreens like those on the Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV.

Off-Road Prowess

If you’re looking to take your electric SUV on an off-road adventure, the Mercedes-Benz EQS holds a distinct edge. It boasts a dedicated OFFROAD® mode that raises the SUV’s ride height, optimizes performance, and offers helpful graphic displays when you are traversing rough terrain.

While the Tesla Model X has all-wheel drive, it doesn’t have anything resembling an automatically adjusting off-road mode.
