The fastback shape of the new car takes more into account the needs of aerodynamics. EQE has a higher drag coefficient It has been optimized with a drag coefficient Cd of 0.22.

Competitors:
After comparing a lot of car models, we found that the most direct competitor of Mercedes-Benz EQE is NIO ET7. Both parties are positioned as medium and large cars. Different people have different opinions on design. In terms of size, NIO ET7 has an advantage in terms of length and width, surpassing The 5-meter length is the bright spot, and the height and wheelbase are dominated by the EQE. However, in a similar price range, the Weilai EThe T7 can be bought in a dual-motor four-wheel drive version, while the EQE only offers a single-motor version, which is inferior in performance. The official CLTC range is the advantage of the EQE, which is 77 kilometers longer than the similarly priced ET7. Both parties have their own advantages. Mercedes-Benz's Brand effect, or EQE, is a bonus.
