Boot 245 l What reviewers say Reviewers agree the EQS SUV is very quiet, relaxing on long journeys and hugely spacious, with a long range. The common criticisms are its very high price and an interior that lacks the finish expected at that price; Autocar and Auto Express found the low-speed ride poor at times, and Autocar thought the seven-seat cabin less versatile than the best.
