A gray 2023 Mercedes SUV.
The 2023 Mercedes-Benz EQE SUV brings a luxurious interior and awe-inspiring driving tech.
  • I drove Mercedes-Benz's new electric SUV: the EQE SUV. 
  • It costs $77,900 and up. The EQE 500 4MATIC SUV that Mercedes lent me cost $99,860. 
  • It offers a comfy interior and plenty of technology, but some buyers may not love its bulbous style.

The first words out of my wife's mouth after laying eyes on Mercedes-Benz's new Tesla-fighting family hauler in our driveway were likely not what the folks in Stuttgart wanted to hear: "It kind of looks like a minivan."

But she has a point.
