The Mercedes-Benz EQS and BMW iX electric SUVs.
  • I drove stunning new electric SUVs from BMW and Mercedes-Benz.
  • Both the BMW iX and Mercedes EQS SUV offer up good range and swanky interiors, but I think the iX is the better buy. 
  • The EQS SUV Mercedes lent me came out to $135,000. The BMW iX I tested cost $96,000.
Not too long ago, if you wanted a big, electric status symbol, a Tesla Model X was your only option.
