Pros Cons of Mercedes-Benz EQS

Pros

  • Long range
  • Luxury in abundance
  • More VFM

Cons

  • No massage seats on 2nd row
  • Low ground clearance
  • Not fun to drive

Verdict

The EQS is not as an electric version of the S-Class, but it is luxurious EV which us fun to drive too. It is loaded with creature comforts and luxury and comes with many new-age tech features. A big USP is that it comes with highest range for any electric car in India and at Rs. 1.55 crore, ex-showroom seems well priced too. It’s a car in which it is hard to find faults really.

Pros Cons of Mercedes-Benz C-Class

Pros

  • Be it lazy commutes or aggressive power output, this luxury sedan satisfies all requirements.
  • The steering gives you precise, immediate feedback, and makes sudden direction changes engaging.
  • Mercedes’ "Digital Light" headlight technology adapts to weather, oncoming traffic, and road conditions.
  • This premium cabin gets a flat-bottom steering, brushed metal accents, and a massive touchscreen.
  • New USB package features six 100W fast-charging Type-C ports scattered across the interior.

Cons

  • Riding on 18-inch AMG alloy wheels means you will feel sharp bumps, road creases, and potholes.
  • In an otherwise well-insulated luxury cabin, the ventilated seat’s whirring noise gets annoying.
  • The 48V mild-hybrid tech does a great job of making stop-and-go driving progressive and smooth. 
  • The C-Class sits low to the ground which means getting in and out requires some bending.
  • The nine-speed gearbox can sometimes perform a jerky downshift when you're braking hard.

Verdict

The Mercedes-Benz C-Class is a reminder of what a luxury sedan ought to be. The C300 especially, is a highly emotional, high-revving petrol motor that Mercedes has crafted to be an absolute hoot to drive. It is a car that looks incredibly handsome on the outside, pampers you with cutting-edge tech on the inside, and puts a massive grin on your face the second you find an open stretch of tarmac.

Bilal Firfiray said in his review:

“If you are looking for a premium luxury sedan which is involving to drive, brings a smile to your face every time you grab the wheel, and feels like a million bucks, there are very few options out there.”

If you are an owner who loves to grab the steering wheel yourself, craves instant mechanical grip, and wants a car that feels like a multi-million-dollar baby S-Class from the driver's seat, the C300 is hands-down the one to have.
