Mercedes-Benz has just unveiled an all-electric new sedan, the 2023 Mercedes-Benz EQE.  It is a smaller but very distinctive version of the new MB EQS, which is MB's very hot flagship vehicle in the global automotive marketplace.  With the EQE, the design, range, technology and infotainment features are very impressive.  For example, the infotainment screen is 56 inches long and spans the full width of the dashboard.  It is called the Hyperscreen and it combines a digital gauge cluster, central touchscreen and a screen for the front passenger.  The EV is getting great reviews from the automotive press.

MB Is Debuting Several Versions of the EQE
