EQS power ratings.
I'm willing to bet that the 516hp power rating of the 580 is very underrated. Given the super heavy weight status of this car I bet its in 550+ range. When you bury the accelerator at any speed this thing is just gone. It is certainly a significantly faster than my tuned E43 which has about 420hp.

Way too much for a slightly faster 580 with less range. Only for those that must have an AMG badge. If thats the case I would wait for the must certainly upcoming 63 version which should be properly fast compared to the other one trick pony EVs

I have to agree 100% with you on this about the 580. I do not claim to be an expert on this, but it feels faster in the warmer weather. Also some interesting ICE comparisons to performance sedans:

CTS-5V Blackwing - Manual/Auto 3.6-3.7 secs 0-60

EQS 580 3.7 secs 0-60.
Merging on a highway on ramp is one of my favorite things to do now in this car.
