Overview
The Mercedes-Benz EQE Saloon is an electric sedan with 5 seats, a 90.6 kWh battery and a quoted NRCan range of 490 km. On paper it suits drivers who want a straightforward everyday electric car. Prices start at around C$107,500, with leases quoted from about C$1100 a month.
Its headline specification point is straightforward: executive saloon with S-Class levels of hush. The sections below break the published figures down and set them against the other electric cars in our Canadian database.
Design & practicality
Bodystyle is a sedan with 5 seats and 430 litres of cargo space. Against every EV in the database that puts it among the weakest for outright carrying capacity, and around mid-pack among other sedans.
Cargo space volume is typical of the class: fine for a weekly shop and a couple of cases.
Range & charging
The quoted NRCan range is 490 km from 90.6 kWh of usable-plus-buffer capacity — around mid-pack in the database for distance between charges. Real-world figures are typically 10–25% lower in cold weather and at sustained highway speeds.
That is a large battery, normally paired with high-power rapid charging. As with any EV, the running-cost picture depends far more on whether you can charge at home overnight than on the charging speed itself.
Performance
The published 0–100 km/h time is 6.4 seconds, which puts it below average for acceleration here and makes it brisk by the numbers. Electric drivetrains deliver that pull instantly from a standstill, so town-speed responses tend to feel stronger than the figure suggests.
Tech & features
We score cabin technology at 9/10 based on published equipment levels, which is around mid-pack across the database. The specification highlight is that executive saloon with S-Class levels of hush.
Expect a large central screen, over-the-air updates and driver assistance as standard on most trims.
Price & value
New prices run from C$107,500 to C$145,650, with three-year-old used examples from around C$57,950 and leases quoted from C$1100 a month. That sits at the premium end of the electric cars in this database, and the upper-middle of the sedans specifically.
Our value score, which weighs the price against range, space and equipment, is 6/10. Whether it works out cheaper than your current car depends on your distance, fuel price and charging setup — the cost calculator does that maths properly.
