2022 Porsche Taycan vs. 2022 Mercedes-Benz EQS

The 2022 Porsche Taycan has a lot to offer. That said, compared to some Audi and Tesla models, the Taycan's starting price is surprisingly lower. With futuristic styling, a luxurious interior, and numerous standard features, it runs rings around other electric vehicles. This vehicle undeniably provides the type of Porsche aesthetics, luxury, and performance you've come to expect from one of the highest end automobile manufacturers in existence.

With a truly awe-inspiring interior, the Mercedes-Benz EQS shows off Mercedes' latest technology. It's capable of a more impressive range than some other EV rivals and offers dazzling tech with Mercedes' typical luxury feel and appearance.

Design & Style

Not surprisingly, the Taycan interior boasts exactly what you would expect from a high performance, high tech luxury sedan. With top-of-the-line materials, the overall finish and fit are the envy of the industry. With a curved digital driver display, it is impressively modern. The exterior style executes an ideal balance between a fully modern appearance and the customary Porsche design. An obvious air of Porsche tradition is obvious in the overall aesthetics.

Made up of three displays, the 2022 Mercedes-Benz EQS MBUX Hyperscreen comes standard. To activate individual driver profiles, the vehicle features a fingerprint scanner. There is also a voice command system, Burmester audio system, and six USB ports. For interior upholstery, coordinated color combinations can be chosen. Courtesy of ambient lighting, drivers have the option of setting the mood in their EQS.

Technology & Safety

This is Porsche's first all-electric model. For the 2022 Porsche Taycan's vehicle information and entertainment center, natural language voice commands can be utilized. Driver assists typical in today's luxury automobiles are replicated here, and then some. For slightly faster battery charging, a new temperature management system saves valuable time.

Standard driver assist technology is provided in the 2022 Mercedes-Benz EQS. This includes self-parking assist, adaptive cruise control, blind spot monitoring, lane keeping assistance, lane departure warning, emergency braking with pedestrian detection, and more.

Performance

You'll appreciate athletic handling and quick acceleration - especially for a sedan this size- when you purchase a 2022 Porsche Taycan. With this Porsche model, buyers are getting a high tech, upscale luxury automobile. To add a boost of power, launch control comes standard.

The 2022 Mercedes-Benz EQS generates 406 pounds per feet of torque and 329 hp with its rear axle mounted electric motor (in the 450+ model). An impressive 611 pound per feet of torque and 516 hp are available in the EQS 580 4Matic. In the latter model, it takes 3.7 seconds to go from 0 to 60 mph.

The Bottom Line

Providing an electric driving experience that is enviable even among the highest-grade luxury vehicles currently, today's 2022 Porsche Taycan evokes intense emotion and prestige. It is available in three body shapes, each progressively more impressive than the one before it.

The 2022 Mercedes-Benz EQS, unfortunately, offers a lesser range than some other high-end models. On undulating roads, one complaint is floaty suspension. Additionally, in sunlight, the hyperscreen is prone to reflections.
