Other upgrades include a restyled front grille with chrome-plated, flush-mounted slats and a standing Mercedes star on the bonnet. Inside the cabin, EQS models equipped with the optional Rear Comfort Package Plus benefit from a new slanted footrest on the right side in the rear compartment. According to Mercedes-Benz, it noticeably increases comfort for the rear passenger because he or she can place his or her feet at an angle.
The passenger seat can be folded forward and the backrest in the rear can be adjusted up to 38º to provide more space. The optional equipment list includes seat heating Plus and neck/shoulder heating in the rear as well as pneumatic adjustment of the seat depth.
An illuminated trim piece is integrated into the back of the front seats while the ventilation nozzles on the B-pillars now have a frame made of galvanised chrome. The additional cushion in the rear is enhanced by piping made of Nappa leather. A new driver assistance system, Automatic Lane Change, is fitted as standard.
