I always like the "Poor Man's ..." stuff, with only a few extras the car easily hits 100k€, if you go all-out, even 150k. If that's the definition of poor, then I want to be poor :D But of course I understand that it's a bit of a joke, and compared to an EQS it's a bit more affordable of course. Anyway, thanks for all your work, you are really unique in the EV KZreadr World.

>If that's the definition of poor, then I want to be poor In Norway you are.

@Bjørn Nyland you missed one point, BMW iX range is greater than EQE by 60+ miles

I guess whoever can afford this "poor man" SUV, can also afford the EQS, so it all comes down to the space you need or like. Sometimes size does matter :)

I just had vacation in Switzerland which meant doing 1000 km each way from the harbor in northern Germany (I live in Sweden). First run down took 10:35 h. Second run took 9:42 of active driving, according to the car. That was a Golf Diesel which can go about 900 km on one tank, and I had to stop each way for a few hours to get some sleep. Total trip time was both ways around 13-14 hours. Had I been in an electric car I would have used the charging time for sleeping, making up for the time "lost" due to charging. I don't really understand this argument of needing 1000 km range of an EV.. 3 hours of boring highway driving should IMO be the goal, then I can easily go for 30-40 min break. Seems like the safest option anyway. Oh, and great job @Björn Nyland for having the energy to do these trips so often. I don't know how you do it 🥇

When an EV can do 1000 km on one charge, the goal post will move to 2000 km. Some people will come up with any reason to hate on EVs.

Bjørn, just because some people think you shouldn't compare a Mercedes with a Tesla doesn't mean you have to listen. The Model X is similar price to this one and should be considered when you go for EQE, IX or e-tron.

TMX was my dream car. But after one day test drive with plaid all dreams vanished on so poor quality :( I ordered IX.

When ZEEKR 001 is out officially. That could hit sweet spot. You need to test that properly. Some premium feeling with pricing closer to model Y

There has been a recall for faulty software that can shut down car while driving and one documented fire as well in the USA.

How many times ffs...The "poor mans" expression, is not to be meant literal. Its not about affordability its just a joke name for things that are the "cheaper version" of other things. EQS EQE. We all know that the EQE is pricy. Are you german? Because this is the type of humorless comments typical.

How do you think xpeng g9 compares? It's about half the price right?

Map looks smoother :)

It's in German's DNA, they know how to build luxurious and comfortable cars ... at a high cost. They are not there yet for the efficiency. It is in this area that you can measure how far is Tesla. Fast and efficient affordable cars . Still a long way to go for Germans manufacturers.

you talk about the good autopilot.. Is it the standard version or is it the premium/PLUS? dont know if its called this also i Norway? Whats your opinion vs the tesla model 3 standard autosteer?

Nice car, just 4 or 5 more years until it's affordable.

Estimate (written) is off 😅 You mention 231 wH. You need 100 extra 😜

BMW iX 1000km in summer would be interesting, maybe even the M60?

Not really as you will probably be charging at home most of the time.

Too small trunk and too much space in the rear seat. Needs a movable rear seat like EQB.

Don't listen to him. He's a German and biased towards German cars. Model Y is a very comfortable premium elektroauto with great comfort and class-leading space. Model Y is way better value for money. It also has better range, lower consumption and charges faster. But EQE is of course more comfortable and quieter. But we're talking about at least 2x the price. EQE also has less space than Model Y (banana box test coming soon).

When do you sleep?

Just test drove EQE yesterday. First thing I've noticed was how poor the front visibility is. The dash is way too high and a pillars are huge as well. It is almost claustrophobic. I feel like no one mentions it. Interior quality was very very nice though.

I drove the EQE SUV 500 recently, and have never been so disappointed by any 100k+€ car like this one: 1. Interior space: in the front, it feels like sitting in a Cessna 172, a ridiculously high dashboard, sloping upwards from the doors to the front. Destroy the usual SUV-feeling of sitting above things, here you sit behind the dashboard with limited visibility. Things worsen in the rear: seats are way too short, and steeply sloping. Not even a 14-year-old wanted to sit there. Air suspension can be noisy on poor tarmac/Beton.

@@pegefounder premium has to do with better interior materials, a more comfortable ride and a descent amount of QA to avoid embarrasing things like huge panel gaps. Huge panel gaps by the way is not just cosmetic. They tell you that the producer uses way too high tolerances when building the cars (in order to save time and money) and if they reason that way when it comes to the chassi you can be sure they reason the same way for the rest of the car, from the engine to the interior. Building cars as fast as you can with this mindset to make more money is the opposite of premium!
