The EQS’ pre-crash front seatbelts will tighten automatically in the event the vehicle detects an impending crash, improving protection against injury significantly. The Mustang Mach-E doesn’t offer pre-crash pretensioners.

The Mercedes EQS has standard driver and front passenger side knee airbags mounted low on the dashboard. These airbags helps prevent the driver and front passenger from sliding under their seatbelts or the main frontal airbags; this keeps them better positioned during a collision for maximum protection. Knee airbags also help keep the legs from striking the dashboard, preventing knee and leg injuries in the case of a serious frontal collision. The Mustang Mach-E doesn’t offer a front passenger side knee airbag.

The rear seatbelts optional on the EQS inflate when a collision is detected, helping to spread crash forces over a much larger area of the body and limiting head and neck movement. This can help prevent spinal and internal injuries. The Mustang Mach-E doesn’t offer inflatable seatbelts.

The EQS’ standard pretensioning seatbelts also sense rear collisions and remove slack from the seatbelts to help protect the occupants from whiplash and other injuries. The Mustang Mach-E doesn’t offer a whiplash protection system.

Both the EQS and the Mustang Mach-E have standard driver and passenger frontal airbags, front side-impact airbags, driver knee airbags, side-impact head airbags, front seatbelt pretensioners, height adjustable front shoulder belts, four-wheel antilock brakes, traction control, electronic stability systems to prevent skidding, crash mitigating brakes, post-collision automatic braking systems, daytime running lights, lane departure warning systems, blind spot warning systems, rearview cameras, rear cross-path warning and driver alert monitors.

The Mercedes EQS weighs 635 to 1558 pounds more than the Ford Mustang Mach-E. The NHTSA advises that heavier cars are much safer in collisions than their significantly lighter counterparts.

The EQS comes with a full 4-year/50,000-mile basic warranty, which covers the entire car and includes 24-hour roadside assistance. The Mustang Mach-E’s 3-year/36,000-mile basic warranty expires 1 year or 14,000 miles sooner.

The EQS’ standard front and rear disc brakes are vented to help dissipate heat for shorter stops with less fading. The rear discs on the Mustang Mach-E are solid, not vented.

The EQS AMG offers optional heat-treated ceramic brake rotors, which last ten to twenty times as long as conventional cast iron rotors, don’t rust, don’t fade during repeated high speed braking, and their lighter weight contribute to better braking, handling and acceleration. The Mustang Mach-E doesn’t offer ceramic brake rotors.

For better traction, the EQS has larger standard tires than the Mustang Mach-E (255/45R20 vs. 225/60R18). The AMG EQS’ tires are larger than the largest tires available on the Mustang Mach-E (275/40R21 vs. 245/45R20).

The EQS’ standard tires provide better handling because they have a lower 45 series profile (height to width ratio) that provides a stiffer sidewall than the Mustang Mach-E’s standard 60 series tires. The EQS’ optional tires have a lower 35 series profile than the Mustang Mach-E GT’s 45 series tires.

For better ride, handling and brake cooling the EQS has standard 20-inch wheels. Smaller 18-inch wheels are standard on the Mustang Mach-E. The EQS’ optional 22-inch wheels are larger than the 20-inch wheels on the Mustang Mach-E GT.

Changing a flat tire near traffic can be dangerous and inconvenient. The run-flat tires available on the EQS can be driven up to 50 miles without any air pressure, allowing you to drive to a service station for a repair. The Mustang Mach-E doesn’t offer run-flat tires.

XPYNN-M34HG 2a06:98c0:3600::103 2024/12/03

The front and rear suspension of the EQS uses air springs for a smoother, controlled ride than the Mustang Mach-E, which uses coil springs. Air springs maintain proper ride height and ride more smoothly.

The EQS has a standard automatic front and rear load leveling suspension to keep ride height level with a heavy load or when towing. The EQS’ height leveling suspension allows the driver to raise ride height for better off-road clearance and then lower it again for easier entering and exiting and better on-road handling. The Mustang Mach-E doesn’t offer a load leveling suspension.

The EQS’ drift compensation steering can automatically compensate for road conditions which would cause the vehicle to drift from side to side, helping the driver to keep the vehicle straight more easily. The Mustang Mach-E doesn’t offer drift compensation steering.

For a smoother ride and more stable handling, the EQS’ wheelbase is 8.9 inches longer than on the Mustang Mach-E (126.4 inches vs. 117.5 inches).

For better handling and stability, the average track (width between the wheels) on the EQS is 2.2 inches wider in the front and 2.8 inches wider in the rear than the track on the Mustang Mach-E.

The EQS’ front to rear weight distribution is more even (50% to 50%) than the Mustang Mach-E’s (48.7% to 51.3%). This gives the EQS more stable handling and braking.

The EQS 580 4MATIC handles at .88 G’s, while the Mustang Mach-E California Route 1 pulls only .77 G’s of cornering force in a Motor Trend skidpad test.

For better maneuverability, the EQS w/10° rear-wheel steering’s turning circle is 2.3 feet tighter than the Mustang Mach-E’s (35.8 feet vs. 38.1 feet).

For enhanced passenger comfort on long trips the EQS’ available rear seats recline. The Mustang Mach-E’s rear seats don’t recline.

Unlike the driver-only memory system in the Mustang Mach-E Premium/CA RT 1/GT, the EQS has standard driver and passenger memory, so that when drivers switch, the memory setting adjusts the driver’s seat, steering wheel position and outside mirror angle and the front passenger seat also adjusts to the new passenger’s preset preferences.

The EQS offers an optional heads-up display that projects speed and navigation instruction readouts in front of the driver’s line of sight, allowing drivers to view information without diverting their eyes from the road. The Mustang Mach-E doesn’t offer a heads-up display.

The EQS’ optional power side swing out doors make it much easier to load and unload kids and cargo. One touch opens the door, before you even get to the car. The Mustang Mach-E doesn’t offer a power rear door.

The EQS has a standard locking charge port door with a remote release located convenient to the driver. A locking charge port prevents tampering and damage to the charging system. The Mustang Mach-E doesn’t offer a locking charge port.

To help drivers avoid possible obstacles, the EQS has standard cornering lights to illuminate around corners when the turn signals are activated. The Mustang Mach-E doesn’t offer cornering lights. The EQS also has standard adaptive headlights to illuminate around corners automatically by reading vehicle speed and steering wheel angle.

When the EQS is put in reverse, the passenger rearview mirror tilts from its original position. This gives the driver a better view of the curb during parallel parking maneuvers. Shifting out of reverse puts the mirror into its original position. The Mustang Mach-E’s mirror doesn’t automatically adjust for backing.

The EQS’ standard rear and side view mirrors have an automatic dimming feature. These mirrors can be set to automatically darken quickly when headlights shine on them, keeping following vehicles from blinding or distracting the driver. The Mustang Mach-E has an automatic rear view mirror, but its side mirrors don’t dim.

The EQS has standard heated front seats. Heated front seats are only available on the Mustang Mach-E Premium/CA RT 1/GT. The EQS also offers optional heated rear seats to keep those passengers extremely comfortable in the winter. Heated rear seats aren’t available in the Mustang Mach-E.

The EQS has standard front air conditioned seats and offers them optionally in the rear. This keeps the passengers comfortable and takes the sting out of hot seats in summer. The Mustang Mach-E doesn’t offer air-conditioned seats.

The EQS offers optional massaging front and rear seats in order to maximize comfort and eliminate fatigue on long trips. Massaging seats aren’t available in the Mustang Mach-E.

The EQS’ Active Parking Assist can parallel park or back into a parking spot by itself, starting, stopping and changing direction automatically. Remote Parking Assist will park and retrieve your car remotely: press a button and watch it park itself. This is ideal for tight locations. The Mustang Mach-E’s automatic parking system does not offer parking by remote control.
