The Mercedes EQS SUV has started production at the company's factory in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, the only factory where it will be manufactured.
. The SUV variant of the EQE sedan will also be built at that factory starting later this year.
The EVA2 platform uses 400 volt architecture with a charging capacity of 200 kW — the maximum possible with the CCS standard which limits current flow to 500 amps. The car comes with an 11 kW onboard AC charger. A 22 kW charger is optional in the sedan, but whether it is also available on the SUV is unknown.
Michael Goebel, CEO of Mercedes-Benz US International, is proud of the team at the Tuscaloosa factory. “We have a highly skilled and motivated team that has absolutely delivered in the successful product launch of the new EQS SUV. Our team members in Tuscaloosa have shown a lot of flexibility, energy, and commitment in helping us to achieve milestone after milestone since our first Mercedes-Benz rolled off the production line more than 25 years ago.
