Few general questions a dealer couldn't answer
Went to test drive the EQS and had a few questions the dealership couldn't answer. Perhaps you might know:
- How is CarPlay working with the Hyperscreen? Does is stretch the entirety of the screen or is it centered and using less than the full screen?
- I recall on the demo video months ago they showcased that doors have electric mechanisms that hold the door securely at any angle when you open it. Is that the case?
- On Tesla vehicles, all cameras record while driving, there is a Sentry parking mode, and cameras can now be used to remotely view live footage. Any such functionality with the EQ line?
- Is the adjustable suspension an AIRMATIC or something else?
- Can you adjust the seat headrest forward / backwards or is it only up/down?
- Do they have any plans to enable phone / card as a key on current EQ line vehicles so a remote is not necessary?
Thanks!

The front seat head rests can be manually moved front to back. The door control does up and down. The rear seat head rests can be manually adjusted up and down. I don't recall if they can be adjusted front to back. The head rest button on the rear door is just a dummy switch.

yes, it stretch the entirety of the screen. but you don't need to use CarPlay screen. on the MB nav screen, you can see CarPlay song and call list on the lower part of the nav screen (1/5~1/6 of the screen)

up down is electric, forward, backward is traditionally manual

The MB mapping is not as bad as you may think. Granted, Google Maps and Apple Maps are better at offering multiple routes but they do not offer tracking of DC Fast Chargers when traveling. I've used the MB mapping a few times with good success. Give it a try. You can always fall back on the other two maps if needed.

How fast are they building new roads in your area? I rely on a now-4 year old database in my daily driver without any problems of finding the destination.

I don't recall any time that I navigated to a street address because I don't know what it is. I always navigate to a destination name. Businesses come and go frequently, so navigating to a business name often fails because the data is out of date. Then I resort to using my cell phone and HERE WeGo.
