Yea, that is a sweet looking design. Probably wouldn't meet safety standards but man!

Nice video, I do agree with him though, the EQS design lacks the presence of the W223, I just prefer the more stately and elegant looks, especially the hood mounted ornament.

Yeah, while I'm anxious to see it and drive it, I could care less if it was a .22 or .25 drag coefficient, design a car that looks as sexy and Lux. as the inside of the EQS,, oh they did the "VISION" and then stopped after manufacturing one.

totally agree. For one point of CD it doesn’t seem worth going with this shape. Even if they needed a cab forward design to ensure the car isn’t too heavy, they should still have sharpened up the shape and put an emblem on the front.

I also believe they could have hit this number with a better design without a fake grill. Maybe no grill at all like the AMG One or the Vision EQXX.

Lucky guy, he's had the EQS for a week! I can see Jay buying this or maybe he is more a EQS AMG kind of a guy. Must be the Onyx Black Metallic.
Good find Joe!

Teaser presumably for an EQS AMG model, all it really indicates is 0-100kph in 3.4s, 761hp, no images of the car...

It will be the EQS 53, which leaked in the news/rumors thread, but the site has since been taken down. It had a "Panamericana-fied" EV grill with very busy AMG wheels. There was a premiere date labeled September 5th, which happens to be the same date as IAA and the other reveals planned for MB.

The car in Jay Leno's video seems to be Graphite Gray Metallic when it's outside, but it looks much darker inside. Any thoughts on the actual color?

I suspect these are actually two different cars: the one in the garage is Onyx Black, and the one they gave him for 2 weeks was Graphite Gray. Maybe Jay side-swiped the gray one given how he was veering off lane all the time in his video.

LOL, yeah the front shots of him driving he looked like a gray haired old woman barely looking over the steering wheel. I still like him though!

I mean this in the nicest possible way, but you are color blind. There is no black car in the Jay leno video

Yes, there isn't. Onyx Black isn't true black: it's more of a very dark brown.

I think the whole animation and manufactured sound is truly juvenile as is his enthusiasm for it.
