2024 EQE350+ and 350 4Matic models were just released for sale! No 500 yet it seems. Haven’t been able to figure out range on the 4Matic but it appears 350+ range is 307 miles! Wow, big increase and quoted as higher then on the sedans.

Yeah, the 350+, 500, (and maybe AMG?) all get a bigger battery. However, 350 4Matic keeps the same battery as 2023.

AMG 2024 has the 90.6 kw battery. No change.

BenjaminKohl

Not exactly. The 2024 EQE AMG started production at the same time as the regular 2023 models, with the same battery as the 2023 350+ and 4Matic, a 90.6 kWh battery (same as EQE sedans), while the 350 4Matic got a smaller 89 kWh battery. For 2024 the EQE350+ and 500 4M are getting an even larger 96 kWh battery, and the AMG is staying the same as it’s always been a 2024. I’ve heard the EQE350 4M is getting a 90.56 kWh battery for 2024, but i don’t know if it’s the 90.6 or a different one.

I'd also heard that the 350X4 had an 89, but I'd also read that the 90.6 was simply an approximation due to variations in the battery manufacture. Some might be 89, some might be higher, so the average given was 90.6. However, I think you're on to something - the MBUSA website shows the 2023 350X4 to have an 89 kWh battery. So maybe the '24 350X4 gets the '23 sedan's (and the 350+ sedan/SUV and 500X4's) 90.6kWh battery. Either way, the difference between 89 and 90.6 is about 5 miles, rather within the variability of driving style and speed, so it may not matter all that much. Now, 5-10 kWh on the other hand...

Despite a smaller SUV battery, I've found both the sedan and SUV to be road tripping monsters. They have a fantastic charging curve (assuming the battery can precondition appropriately!), and are super reliable charger to charger. It's been great so far!

When you say "on sale", do you mean that they can be ordered?
I think production of 24 models hasn't started yet (except AMG)?

BenjaminKohl

No, they’ve (350s) been orderable since I believe October, in production since January, and are now on dealer lots. Still no 500 on lots and I don’t know if they’re even in production yet.

Really? In that case, we are far behind in Canada.
The pricing for 2024 only came out 4 weeks ago, the earliest allocation for 350 is in April production for June delivery

BenjaminKohl

Ah, yes I should have specified this was for the US.

Finally found a 350 4Matic window sticker, not quite as impressive rated range of 265 miles, then again that's s till 12 ahead of last year. Of course from what we've heard the 450 4Matic battery only increases in size 1.5kwh, unlike the 350+ and not yet available 500 4Matic which get 5.5kwh additional.
