The Mercedes-Benz EQE electric SUV is the fourth all-electric offering from the carmaker in India. It is available in a single, fully-loaded, all-wheel-drive (AWD) variant, priced at Rs 1.39 crore (ex-showroom). While it comes with numerous convenient features, there are also some interesting details, like how to access the boot. In a recent video, we demonstrate how to open the tailgate of this car.
Just Press The Logo
In the video, it is demonstrated that opening the boot lid of the Mercedes-Benz EQE electric SUV is as simple as pressing the ‘Mercedes’ logo on the upper side, and it automatically opens. To close the boot, simply press the provided close button on the lower part of the tailgate.
This method of opening the boot by pressing the logo is similar to that of the Volkswagen Polo. The only difference is that the EQE electric SUV features a powered tailgate.
