The 2024 Mercedes-Benz EQE is a ev that earns a Carivo score of 7.4/10 — rated Good. Its strongest dimension is Reliability at 8.4/10, while Safety at 6.9/10 is where it trails the competition most noticeably. It's a capable but unexceptional ev — stronger alternatives exist if you're willing to shop the segment carefully.
Reliability and safety are the two dimensions that matter most for long-term ownership costs. The reliability picture is solid rather than spectacular: 8.4/10, which puts it comfortably above the class median. Safety is a notable gap at 6.9/10 in our scoring — below what the best in segment deliver. Check the official NHTSA ratings for the trim you're considering before deciding.
Few rivals match it for performance: 8.1/10. Expect handling and power delivery that make this one of the more entertaining evs to actually drive. At 7.3/10 for technology, the infotainment and driver-assist package does its job without setting benchmarks — check which features cost extra on lower trims.
Priced from $74,900–$101,059, 108 MPG, seating 5, the Mercedes-Benz EQE sits in the luxury tier of the ev market. Its value score of 8.0/10 confirms that the price reflects the quality — you're getting a lot for your money here. At 2 years old, it's recent enough that the core feature set holds up well against current competition.
Verdict: The 2024 Mercedes-Benz EQE sits in the middle of the field. Until its safety scores improve, stronger options exist at this price. Worth a look if it fits a specific need; otherwise use our compare tool against the segment leaders first.
