2027 Mercedes-Benz EQE SUV: Models, Specs, and What’s New

The 2027 Mercedes-Benz EQE SUV delivers 315 hp and charges from 10 to 80 percent in 32 minutes via DC fast charging. The EQE 320 4MATIC® SUV adds fully variable 4MATIC® all-wheel drive and 564 lb-ft of combined torque over the rear-drive EQE 320+ SUV. This page covers every model, powertrain detail, and tech feature, with inventory available at Mercedes-Benz of Milwaukee North in Glendale.

What’s New for 2027

The headline addition for the 2027 EQE SUV is the inclusion of a Mercedes-Benz NACS DC Fast-charging Adapter as standard equipment, making compatible public fast-charging networks more accessible without a separate purchase. The 96.0-kWh battery in the EQE 320+ SUV and the 90.5-kWh battery in the EQE 320 4MATIC® SUV both support 170 kW DC charging, hitting 10 to 80 percent in 32 minutes. An innovative heat pump and intelligent thermal management system are also standard across both models, supporting usable range in cold-weather conditions, which matters for Wisconsin winters.

The 2027 model also introduces OFFROAD mode and a “Transparent Hood” dash display on the EQE 320 4MATIC® SUV, along with Downhill Speed Regulation (DSR) for controlled descents. HANDS-FREE ACCESS for the power liftgate and KEYLESS GO® with seamless door handles are now standard across the lineup. The Exclusive Trim package consolidates DIGITAL LIGHT LED headlamps, MBUX Augmented Video for Navigation, illuminated door sills, active ambient lighting, and a power charging door into a single option.

Performance and Powertrain

Both models use a permanently excited synchronous motor (PSM) architecture with a single-speed direct-drive transmission. The EQE 320+ SUV is rear-wheel drive; the EQE 320 4MATIC® SUV uses dual motors with Torque Shift across all four wheels.

DC fast charging runs at 170 kW using a CCS connector, with a Mercedes-Benz NACS DC Fast-charging Adapter included. AC charging runs at 9.6 kW through a J1772 connector, taking approximately 11.5 hours for a full charge on the EQE 320+ SUV and 10.75 hours on the EQE 320 4MATIC® SUV. The Mercedes-Benz Power Charger is compatible with both models.

Intelligent Energy Recovery with steering-wheel paddles lets the driver adjust regenerative braking on the fly. ECO Assist and Active Range Monitoring work together to support efficiency, while DYNAMIC SELECT lets the driver adjust drive modes. The 4-wheel multilink suspension with selective damping and Comfort tuning is standard; AIRMATIC® suspension and Adaptive Damping System Plus (ADS Plus) are available upgrades on both models.

Optional 10-degree rear axle steering improves both high-speed lane stability and low-speed maneuverability, reducing the effective turning circle.

Who the 2027 EQE SUV Is For

The EQE 320+ SUV fits buyers who want a fully electric luxury SUV with rear-wheel drive, a larger 96.0-kWh battery, and the quickest 0 to 60 time in the lineup at 5.9 seconds. Buyers who prioritize all-weather capability, towing up to 3,500 lbs, or off-road mode functionality should move to the EQE 320 4MATIC® SUV. Both benefit from the same 32-minute DC fast charge window and standard heat pump, which address range concerns in Wisconsin’s climate directly.

Compared to earlier EQE SUV model years, the 2027 gains standard Mercedes-Benz NACS DC Fast-charging Adapter inclusion, expanded OFFROAD capability on the EQE 320 4MATIC® SUV, and a more organized option structure through the Exclusive Trim and MBUX Hyperscreen packages. Buyers who skipped previous model years for charging-network compatibility concerns will find the 2027 addresses that directly.

Feature availability, package content, Digital Extras, charging access, adapter compatibility, warranty coverage, range, towing capacity, performance figures, equipment, software update availability, and exterior color availability may vary by model, production timing, battery state, driving conditions, and vehicle-specific configuration. Confirm all specifications and coverage terms on the specific vehicle before purchase or lease.
