Edmunds compares: Audi e-tron GT vs. Mercedes-Benz EQS

The electric vehicle market is rapidly changing. Two recently released models are blazing the trail for a brand-new segment: the electric luxury sedan class. Those two cars are the 2022 Mercedes-Benz EQS and the 2022 Audi e-tron GT. Both offer flagship levels of luxury, but they differ greatly in their execution. The car experts at Edmunds compare and contrast these two electric newcomers to help you decide which premium battery-powered four-door is right for you.

At a Level 3 or DC fast-charging station, the e-tron GT can restore roughly 180 miles in 22 minutes. Meanwhile, an EQS plugged into the same charger would add about 186 miles in just 15 minutes.The EQS is in many ways the Mercedes S-Class reimagined in EV form, and as such it's not meant to be a tire-scorching performance machine. The e-tron GT, on the other hand, is.

But even if the EQS can match the e-tron GT in a straight line, it can't keep up with it in the canyons. Though it's not quite as fun to drive as its close relative, the Porsche Taycan, the e-tron GT is more engaging and nimble than the EQS. If you're looking for a four-door electric sports car, this isn't it. But it certainly lives up to the GT designation in its name as a quick and capable grand tourer.

Lower-slung than the Mercedes, the Audi is more difficult to get in and out of. The EQS also has a larger back seat, though it doesn't offer the spaciousness you'd expect from an S-Class-inspired EV. Behind those rear seats is a generously sized cargo area, offering 22 cubic feet of space. The e-tron GT, meanwhile, despite having both a rear and front trunk, delivers just half that.The Mercedes EQS and Audi e-tron GT have similar starting prices of about $103,000.
