Expected Discount on 2025 EQE AMG SUV
Before I contact dealer, just asking for curiosity. Found a 2025 AMG EQE SUV listing at about $108K, demo or loaner, with about 9K miles. What kind of discount could be anticipated?

That depends on how long it has been on the lot, and how well/badly sales in general are going for the dealer. The end of the month, if you can wait, is always the best time to negotiate a deal. This gives you time to research lease options and rates as there may be special incentives for this type of sale. Search this site for guidelines on getting the best deals on leases.

Will new tariffs affect this model? If so may make this car more valuable to dealer. This model being discontinued? Makes it less valuable to the dealer and to you. You can ask them to make it a cpo if that interests you. Adds a couple of thousand dollars for minimal benefit of fair to poor warranty.

And the battery cells? Electric motors? Reduction gearing? Etc. A lot of parts are manufactured overseas, or worse cross back and forth several times so an assembly might end up with tariffs applied multiple times.

So, to reactivate the thread, car is still sitting on the lot. Anyone have any idea of how much discount could be negotiated. List price is actually around $118K with 9800 miles. Nothing comparable that I can find on Leasekackr but I'll try posting again.

Need more data. Date of manufacture. MSRP. CPO status. In excellent condition I would offer msrp less 20 to 25 percent for an out the door price.

Not to sure, but what is the original new car Window Sticker Price? This is now second hand CPO. Depreciation should be at least 30% from New Price. No matter the Miles.
Make an Offer to buy with that % in Mind. Walk away if they give you the Spiel, someone will run after you just when you hit the exit Door.
Try it.

Don't want to hijack this thread, but I'm currently considering a MY25 AMG EQE SUV that is about to arrive at a dealer.
I'm asking for 10% off MSRP. Is that realistic? Thanks!

I decided not even to think about a one year old discontinued vehicle at any price. The used value of that 2025 vehicle is around $75K wholesale. And I hope you are leasing rather than purchasing so that MB eats the depreciation not you.
Look at Leashackr for comparables, but I first of all wouldn't touch the car. But if I did, it would have to be at a significant discount rather than at a discount which you could get on a 2026 if one of the limited production vehicles were available. And probably even more than 10%.
If you want a large luxury EV, consider a BMW iX which could be had for 12% for starters, and maybe more.

Problem is the iX M70 is my other vehicle so I already have it - LOL! (BTW, as of today, the iX can no longer be ordered).
I always lease my vehicles and on EVs, it's basically a must.
The reason I'm considering this particular vehicle is the stellar lease deal they are currently offering. A vehicle with an MSRP of $128k with only the first month's payment down for $1,150/month is certainly not the worst deal out there. And this vehicle is not a loaner - it's brand new and arriving at the dealer a week from today. As reference, the $120k BMW is $1,300/month.

When you look at the car yourself, wear clothes that you don't mind getting dirty and bring a good flashlight - you will need to look under the car for any signs of damage to the body and battery covers. Take your time inspecting it and look everywhere underneath the car. Remember, a clean accident history just means nothing was reported to the DMV, not that there are no accidents.

I would check with the various online sites for price estimates of that car in your area. 10% off MSRP for a used car seems a bit too high, usually a car of any type deprecates that much or more just leaving the lot after purchase. If you can, find a site that will take into account the local market conditions as well as the options that might be installed, and most important, check to see if there is an accident record. The mileage will be critical to valuing the car, of course, and if you can, get a battery health report.

Thanks for the input!
I pulled the trigger on the vehicle in question. The one I'm getting - although being a MY25 - is brand new and hasn't even arrived at the dealer yet.
It appears that the AMGs that are currently coming from the factory are still MY25s while the non-AMGs are MY26. Although this is very strange, it would explain why there neither are any MY26 AMGs on the lots or even allocations available.
So the one I got has a whopping $128k MSRP but the lease offer currently valid on the MY25 AMGs was just awesome (got a total, combined discount of $38,500).

I've been reading about the 2025 EQE AMG SUV and I'm expecting to see a significant discount for orders placed around the launch timeframe, maybe around $5-7k off. The dealerships I spoke to are already preparing for heavy incentives to meet the sales targets, so keep an eye out for some sweet deals.

There is an AMG EQE SUV configurator on Mercedes website. However, the site doesn't list the US model year. AFAIK it is not the same in Germany.

An AMG EQE SUV built today is a 2026 AMG EQE SUV. Note the absence off the "MY" designation.

However, I was referring to the U.S market. The official lease deals for MY26 is different from MY25 and the vehicle I'm getting that's about to arrive at the dealer ist still a 2025.
The lease offer for the 26 for April consists of a higher MF compared to 25 and an incentive of $3,500.
The 25, however, can be leased almost interest free and has a $27,500 incentive.
So you can see there are clearly different offers for the two although there is no 2026 AMG anywhere available yet.
