Talking Cars 370: Driving the Mercedes-Benz EQS 580 Electric Flagship
Plus, can a dealership change the price of a car I ordered before I pick it up?

Main theme: The Mercedes-Benz EQS is a technological tour-de-force. It has the longest range of any non-Tesla electric vehicle, and it features everything from augmented reality to eight different seat massage functions. But is there such a thing as too much technology? We discuss our time behind the wheel—and why we’ll have to evaluate this car a little differently from most.
Audience question: I ordered a Ford Maverick Hybrid months ago and got a really good deal. Now that the truck is in such high demand, can the dealership ask for more money when I arrive to pick it up?
