Should I buy a used 2022 Mercedes-Benz EQS 450+ RWD at 51,700k miles?

Im looking to buy a used mercedes EQS and I see on Cargurus have one with 51,700 miles, there’s no accident or recall with this vehicle. But I afraid that the battery life span is depreciating already so after I buy, the car will have some problem with its battery, i dont know if it well maintained or not.
the price is $44,884, cargurus says it was “high price” but what do you think, is it a reasonable price?
please help me, i really need to buy a car now

You gotta decide on your own. However, I can tell you that my 2022 EQS 450+ has been essentially flawless, and there is certainly no sign of battery degradation so far. Yesterday I charged to 80% at home and this morning it was predicting 388 miles. I have driven 41 miles so far today, and now is predicting 343 miles left. Mileage not as good in Winter, of course, but I have seen no problems with my EQS.

One thing to note is that the basic warranty is over since it is over 50k miles. You are covered on the battery for 10 years/155k miles.

Can I ask for many miles do you have on your car?

I have 27K on my car. It is absolutely fantastic. The local MB dealer is offering me all kinds of deals to upgrade, but I just love it. Your battery warranty should still be intact, as explained in the last post.

I own a Genesis GV60, but I, like you, am thinking about buying a used EQS, so I joined the forum to learn about it! I just bought my GV60 new in July 2023 so it's harder for me to take that loss by selling it and buying a used EQS. I will probably wait a bit longer so that the price gap shrinks.

There probably is some battery degradation that you aren't seeing as is with our Kia Niro EV with 30K miles which is not showing any degradation either. I suspect in both cases there is some battery buffer above 100% rated that is degrading but isn't accessible so you are not perceiving the degradation as a range reduction. I think that Tesla are different in this regard in that they show the degradation out of the gate because you are accessing all of the battery.

This battery warranty makes a high mileage EQS kind of a good deal. But what is the warranty exactly? Is there a range reduction limit? Or is it the battery has to fail to charge?

For capacity, I believe it is 70%. Warranty says 192 Ah (EQS), which at 400V is 76.8 kWh.
