Besides the front fascia, the Maybach EQS SUV is also likely to borrow some of the other styling elements from the electric EQS sedan as well.

The 90kWh and 108kWh batteries are capable of charging the vehicle by up to 300 kms within 15 minutes if plugged to a 200 kW fast charger.
The range of the EQS electric SUV, if powered by these two set of battery packs, may go up to 643 kms without the need to recharge. It is also likely to borrow the same electric motor that drives the EQS sedan.
On the inside, the Maybach EQS is likely to get some minor changes to make it stand out as the high-end luxury model from the brand. It is expected that the Mercedes MBUX 'Hyperscreen' infotainment system, that spreads across the length of the entire dashboard, will make its way into the Maybach EQS SUV as well.
The Mercedes EQS SUV will be officially unveiled in 2022 and is likely to go on sale in the later half of the year.
