If this Article is accurate we may start to see some AMG Hybrids in 2023. Here’s the all electric EQS SUV spy shots & article. Note the extreme rear wheel steer. I was going to order a GLE 63 as soon as options came back but might wait a year to see what’s on tap. Game changer, IMO. More Coupe look similar to Audi Q8…. https://www.motorauthority.com/news/...py-shots-video
That's exciting to hopefully see some AMG Hybrids but I'm assuming this EQS SUV will most likely be fully electric if it has the EQ nameplate. That rear wheel steering really is a game changer. Most likely will be what the current S class has now, standard 4.5 degrees and optioned 10 degrees. Either way that will improve handling and just every day drivability. Also in the video this thing looks pretty small and low to the ground but maybe that's just the camo messing with my eyes (looks like a pretty good overall shape though). I hope they do a better job with the SUV designs for the EQ brand. Looks are obviously subjective but I personally am not a fan of the new EQS design. It really looks like a Honda civic which is a bummer because that's not what you want to think when you think electric S-class. However, they knocked it out the park with the interior.
Here’s Car and Driver prediction for the E Performance Hybrids.
Mercedes-AMG has two high-performance plug-in hybrid powertrains coming under the E Performance name.
One uses a turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four, and the other is a hybrid version of its twin-turbo 4.0-liter V-8. Both have a 4.8-kWh battery pack and an electric motor, a two-speed transmission, and an electronically controlled limited-slip diff on the rear axle.
These new E Performance models will debut by the end of the year along with AMG's version of the EQS electric sedan.
