2019 SL550/2023 EQS 580 SUV
Stream, After having read and shared information on the SL forum all these years I find it uncharacteristic of you to post this news piece. I love my 2019 SL550 and also my 2023 EQS 580 SUV. No one here has reported any fires with their EQS’s and are very happy with their purchase. Am I reading the intent of your post incorrectly?

I thought it was obvious that I was poking a little fun, while also pointing out how electric car fires can seem to start without warning and can be very difficult to put out.

Don;t want to know your problems, but do know it's damned near impossible to keep everyone happy. Better luck next time. Glad I've had no problems with my 450+.

No Mercedes yet
On this site - https://www.nzg-shop.eu/en/novelties/mercedes-benz/ - you can actually buy model replicas of the EQS sedan. (Unfortunately they don't seem to have the EQS SUV yet.)

My son bought me a 1/43rd scale EQS from a German site last autumn; had it repainted Cardinal Red, and brought it to me over Christmas.

See: https://mbworld.org/forums/eqs/842422-1-43rd-scale-eqs-models.html#post8662545

If you search here for 1/43rd scale, you should find before/after photos posted for me by stealth pilot. I’m not able to post images.

I found it on brand. This isn't exactly breaking news information. Nice EQS SUV by the way.
