The Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV 450 4MATIC set a Guinness World Record for enduring the highest temperature change by traveling from Rajasthan at 47.5°C to Ladakh’s Khardungla Pass at -3.7°C, a remarkable 51.2°C temperature drop.
The journey was a rigorous test of the electric vehicle's durability, thermal management, and range performance under extreme conditions, showcasing real-world implications for electric vehicles in India.
The SUV's success was attributed to its 122kWh lithium-ion battery with an advanced thermal management system, ensuring consistent range, efficient charging, longer battery lifespan, and uncompromised performance.
This record-breaking achievement not only demonstrates Mercedes-Benz's capabilities in the luxury EV segment but also proves the readiness of electric vehicles for India's diverse climatic conditions, setting a benchmark for premium electric mobility.
