I will openly admit to being pretty nonchalant when the opportunity to share a test-drive of the EQE 350+ with Sheldon was presented. Having read and watched multiple reviews of the EQS, I wasn’t exactly thrilled to partake in an EQ-product review. You know that saying about how one should NOT judge a book by its sibling cover? Mmmm hmmm… The day arrived when Sheldon showed up at my driveway in the EQE 350+. I couldn’t help but pull a Jonathan-impersonation, with the first words out of my mouth being, “it looks like a fish. Good thing it’s not silver, or it’d be a silverfish!”, accompanied by an pseudo-evil creepy-leery smirk, the type that one would be highly tempted to slap 73 different kinds of stupid out of. Sheldon groaned. Then we proceeded to the photoshoot. The Mercedes-Benz EQE 350+ AMG Line is the tri-point star brand’s answer to mid-range luxury. Unique to Singapore’s market though, it pretty much sits on its own. The Tesla Model S, its natural albeit less-luxurious rival, is not available here, and its nearest price-competitor, the Audi e-tron GT is a lower-slung two-door coupe. So, by some weird twist of fate, the EQE 350+ kinda sorta finds itself going up against its big-brother EQS in Singapore. Die Außenseite There’s no mistaking it. The EQE 350+ is big. B-I-G-G. Its nearly 5-metre length takes up a normal parking spot lengthwise, and then some. Parked next to other sedans and wagons at an open carpark, its bright white roofline could clearly be seen from a distance, since it towers around 1.5-metres above ground level. The curvy and flowing lines of the bodywork further accentuate this perception of ‘bigness.’

Electrified Luxury with the Mercedes-Benz EQE 350+ AMG Line

IN Mercedes-Benz, EQE 350+, AMG Line

Janis Joplin would probably approve of the EQE 350+ with glee from Heaven above


That said, Mercedes-Benz isn’t the first to introduce such ‘gap filler’ though. Looking back, Audi had the S4 to bridge the A4 2.0 TFSI to the RS4. Even BMW had the 335i (now 340i) between the 328i and M3. You get the drift.

Filling the gap between the C250 AMG Line and the full-blown C63 AMG, is there actually enough space for this new C43 AMG?


On a Saturday night and when you have the urge to play Lewis Hamilton, the C250 remains capable. It thrusts forward with dignity, it overtakes on the expressway without feeling breathless and in a slalom we created, it changes directions in an assuring manner.
