The Mercedes Maybach EQS formalizes the Hall of Munich, Germany, the presentation of super refined EQS SUV Concept .

At the front, the gigantic grille formed by a series of vertical chrome fillets on a black background is highlighted. The headlights are narrow and integrated into the set, comprising even more chrome details on the lower part of the bumper. The bodywork features the traditional Maybach color combination, in this case with Obsidian Black Metallic on the top and Zircon Red Metallic on the bottom.

The sides draw attention right away for the gigantic 24-inch wheels with an exaggerated chrome finish, as well as for the contours – also chrome – of the windows and columns. The doors have built-in handles that, according to the brand, pop out when the driver approaches. Another perk given to the driver is the door that opens automatically.
