EQS [Renders] 2020 Mercedes-Benz EQS

[J.E]

That middle airbag between the front passengers is a great and useful feature.

Great feature indeed. So much in fat that Toyota even fitted two middle airbags in the Yaris Cross.

And trying to charge one in winter can be fun - https://streamable.com/mxszdo.

I can't believe they want 100k for this junk!

But...Teslas are trash...

PS: No EQS is 100k. Not even close... Most of the moderate spec EQS on mobile.de are way above 150k

was bad enough releasing press release images where the car looked like it had been in a crash, but wow, surely someone checks this before leaving factory or were they off isolating with Covid? £100k for something assembled worse than a £10k car....hmmm

I must say...

Usually quite prepared to extend the benefit of a doubt, this sort of thing leaves me seriously disliking the EQS more and more. These gaffes are absolutely unacceptable. M-B has just got to be putting its' customers on.

As we would say in Germany: "Man kommt sich TOTAL VERARSCHT vor."

Simply shameful, M-B.

Oh so the Tesla wankers are here now crying again and trying to make themselves feel better about the garbage that Tesla builds by posting pics of the EQS. It's whatever you need to tell yourself I guess. The really sad and pathetic part is that pointing to Mercedes' problems with the EQS doesn't change the fact that everything Tesla shits out has the same problems doesn't matter the model. But hey I guess misery is desperate for company. The internet is full of pics and reviews from every media outlet in the U.S. about Tesla's junk, that still isn't the norm at Mercedes, but have fun. Delusional fools.

And I thought bimmer fans were bad...

So the "internet full of pics about Tesla junk" is the reason why this EQS (worth around 160k) is bad.

Shame on you Sunny ! GCF is the new Russia ! We never say something bad about our holy german trinity ! Come on...


Edit: By the way , did someone here said that Teslas have good quality , or am I missing something? Oh , wait...

The body panel dit on that particular EQS is just bad. Shockingly so. I haven’t seen any examples yet in person with that poor of a fit. Kind of reminds me of those very early W205 sedans that were coming out of the Alabama factory. They were a mess just like that.

It really does appear to be a particularly carelessly assembled and finished example. This sort of thing is called "Ein Montagsauto" in Germany. A reference to cars assembled by severely hungover line workers following hearty weekend partying. Not at all so uncommon in the 1960s' through 1980s'. Actually, in the era of increasing automation, I thought that this sort of thing had gone the way of the dodo bird.

Automation needs fine tunning and this takes time. In three months everything will be perfect.

Could it be the new factory needs time to get to proper effeciency. In anycase that example above is pathetic for any Mercedes. Hopefully its the last of that crap.

The one i saw thankfully looked well screwed on. The only gap i saw was the front fender to light area.

We can single out bad examples for each manufacturer but one thing stands: the overall average build quality (hardware not software) of Tesla is not yet on the same level as the German premium.

Have you checked a China made Tesla? The quality of assembly is on a very high level.

I've read a bit about it. More info is appreciated. Could you please share?

At least those not produced in China.

No, the reason why Tesla is so bad is because they don't know how to put a car together, has nothing to do with Mercedes. No, no one said that Telsa's had good quality, but you did try to say that Mercedes' (or other Germans) quality was the same or no better, that is where the BS started.
