They've already built 1500 or so pre pro cars. But nice to see regular production starting! Most in thst lineup look to be GLEs and GLSs though.

Good news for sure. Pricing and the US configurator should be coming soon.

P.S. Still waiting for my order to be picked up by the factory.

Glad to hear it! I'm looking forward to the dynamic/driving reviews and test drive opportunity.

on a side question, how does Tesla Model X even survive after the EQS SUV and after Tesla opens up it's superchargers to everyone? Except for self driving (which half the people are too scared to use anyway), I'm not sure what you get in a Tesla that is not far better in the EQS SUV. And the Model Y will be in the same boat with the upcoming EQE SUV and EQB.

Tesla's don't actually self drive. It's a Level 2 system same as Mercedes. Tesla has cachet with the green crowd and tech crowd. I would imagine fewer sales eventually. EQS SUV will be slow to ramp up sales.

You get this unique Tesla feature. Trim and surface materials that starts to flake off revealing a unique patina.

Tesla Plaid interior starts to fall apart

I actually think its priced well, was expecting it to be much more expensive than the sedan but surprisingly pretty much matches the sedan's price. The EQE SUV will be priced under six-figures and closer to a GLE.

Well hopes of a discount on 580 over sedan are dashed. However it is about the same price for 580 base, and just over 1000 more for the Pinnacle.

EQS 580 SUV is a Beautiful EV. Congrats to all that are able. Need to get my Real Estate License so can write this off on my Taxes...lol

Curious to see how the "Alabama Built" EQS 580 SUV will depreciate over time...

My guess is it will fare better than the sedan.

I emailed my SA to ask if he heard when a demo will be arriving. I’ll be sure to post my review when it arrives and I’ve driven it. Thanks

A number of dealers including Laguna Nigel in Cali, Alexandria VA, etc. have began to lead inventory. A pretty high number of the early pre configured "market launch" cars have the third row! So if that's something important, i would start searching (cargurus is good) and try to get you rname for one. Generlaly ones with vins ending 400-1500 are pretty likely to have the third row.

On the other hand, it's surprising to see so few EQS SUVs having been built as production trial test cars. With the GLE, for example, the showrrom units didn't start until vahicle 6000 or something, with regular production at like 12000, but with the EQS SUV there's only like 400 pre pro cars, with showroom units at vin 400 and regular custom ordered prodduction at like 2000. I wonder if a lot more of the development and testing was modeled on computers.

Confirmed as I Checked the Vin for my order…. It ends in the 400s and it does have the third row seat.
