Which variant to buy

There is no price walk here: the EQS 450+ AMG Line and EQS 500 4Matic CKD both cost RM 648,888. Most buyers should start with the EQS 450+ AMG Line because its 782 km claimed range is higher than the EQS 500’s 696 km. Pick the EQS 500 4Matic CKD if the 443 hp output matters more than maximum range; the EQS 450+ makes 328 hp.

Verdict

The EQS is costly next to many electric sedans in Malaysia, with the class starting from RM 100,000 and the Tesla Model 3 from RM 147,600. It sits just below the Mercedes-AMG EQE at RM 649,888, while the BMW i7 and Mercedes-AMG EQS cost more. The buying decision is unusually simple: same money, more range in the EQS 450+, more power in the EQS 500.
