STUTTGART: Ola Källenius, Chairman of Board of Management at Daimler confirmed at the company's shareholders meeting that the Mercedes-Benz concept EQS Electric Sedan will offer a range of more than 700 kms in a single charge.

He further confirmed that the production model of the EQS electric sedan will be fully-electric from ground-up and won’t be transformed from a conventional combustion engine to a battery operated.

He said, “ Next year, we will enter a new era for Mercedes in terms of electrification: The EQS will set standards. More than 700 kilometers of driving range according to WLTP – that’s how far it can go on one battery charge. With the EQS, the way we think about cars is changing. It is the first fully electric luxury sedan from Mercedes-Benz based on an all-electric architecture. This opens up entirely new possibilities – from the position of the batteries to the car’s design.”
