AMG's first electric SUV looks to bring the fight to Tesla with big power.
Mercedes-AMG isn't just transitioning to the electric future, it's kicking the door down. Today the performance brand unveiled the latest Mercedes EQ-branded electric product that it's extracted more performance from and slapped its famous three letters on: The 2024 Mercedes-AMG EQE battery-electric SUV.
for those who enjoy melting tires as a weekly pastime. As electric vehicle mandates draw ever closer, AMG is taking its hot-rodding approach to the battery-powered future.Instead of a massively powerful V-8 engine, nestled under the hood the 2024 Mercedes-AMG EQE is one of two dual electric motors—the other powers the rear axle from the rear. Combined the two electric motors produce 617 hp and 701 lb-ft, substantial figures for a vehicle this size.
Power comes from a 90.6-kWh battery made from 360 pouch-type cells arranged into 10 modules. The battery management system is specific to this AMG variant and can be upgraded via OTA updates, giving the 2024 Mercedes-AMG EQE a bit of software-defined-vehicle flavor. The batteries can handle fast charging rates up to 170 kW and can gain up to 100 miles of range in just 15 minutes of charging.
