The new generation of electric vehicles seems to be performing the moose test impressively. A large portion of these zero-emissions vehicles covers the stability challenge better than similarly-sized combustion-powered models. That doesn’t seem to be the case with the new Mercedes-Benz EQS, however, as the electric luxury sedan didn’t impress during a new test run by the km77.com team.
The highest speed with which the EQS passed the test without hitting any cones was 45 miles per hour (72 kilometers per hour). Sure, that’s not a terrible result - the Skoda Enyaq, for example, did worse, but it’s a little disappointing given how much technology is doing its job in such an advanced electric vehicle. The testers described this result as “poor”, though they admitted the driver had no problems keeping the vehicle within the desired path.
