The Mercedes-Benz VISION EQS is a battery-electric powered concept vehicle from Daimler AG , which is assigned to the sub-brand Mercedes-Benz EQ . It was first presented in September 2019 at the International Motor Show in Frankfurt am Main and a series version is expected to come onto the market in 2021.
design
The vehicle has a futuristic design. The Mercedes-Benz as a "one-bow" (dt. , A sheet marketed) body separates from the classic silhouette of a sedan and stage to impress with curves and seamless transitions between the individual components. A very flat roof line in combination with large, 24- inch rims is also striking . For the first time, the rear lights are seamlessly integrated into the body and consist of 229 individual LEDs in the shape of the Mercedes star. The radiator grille is marketed by the manufacturer as a black-panel grill and consists of 940 individual LEDs that can be controlled in groups of five and enable communication with other road users. The DIGITAL-LIGHT technology from Mercedes is used in the headlights, which can project symbols onto the road using hologram projectors. The vehicle will also be completely surrounded by an exterior light band that connects the headlights with the rear lights on both sides.
The interior design is inspired by the world of luxury yachts . The cockpit, which seamlessly merges into the rest of the interior, should flow around the occupants "like a boat deck". The seats are made of white microfiber fabric in a checked pattern and are complemented by rose gold-colored decorative elements. By tilting the panes and shifting them slightly outwards, the interior space is enlarged.
The MBUX system, which was first presented in 2018 in the 177 series (A-Class), is also used in a modified form in this concept vehicle. In addition to the cockpit, the vehicle also has a touch-based display that comes from the center console. The electric seat adjustment for the driver and front passenger is also implemented using touch displays on the armrests. There the occupants can log in with their individual Mercedes me ID and access saved seat settings. Similar to the exterior light band, there is also a light band in the interior that runs through the entire vehicle. This is called CONNECTED LIGHT and can transmit information to the occupants.
technology
The drive of the VISION EQS is fully electric and consists of two electric motors attached to the axles . These provide a maximum of more than 350 kW (476 hp) and accelerate the vehicle with a total of more than 760 Nm in less than 4.5 seconds from 0 to 100 km / h. The range is specified as 700 kilometers ( WLTP ). With 100 kWh , the VISION EQS has the largest accumulator ever presented by Mercedes, which should be able to be recharged to 80% in "significantly less than 20 minutes".
materials
The vehicle should mainly consist of sustainable materials. The wood will come from local forests, the decorative fabrics will be made from plastic waste from the sea and the microfiber fabrics will be made from recycled PET bottles . Bar growth - maple wood should be used in the dashboard . The body consists of a material mix of steel, aluminum and carbon. The battery cells are to be partially produced from 100% renewable energy in a CO₂-neutral process. The individual cells are manufactured into accumulators by the Daimler subsidiary Deutsche Accumotive .
