Mercedes-Benz India has refreshed its all-electric flagship sedan, the EQS 580, with a special Celebration Edition. Priced at Rs. 1.30 crore (ex-showroom), this exclusive version gets a set of enhancements focused on rear-seat comfort—an area that previously lacked the opulence expected at this price point.
Let’s take a closer look at what’s new, how it differs from the regular EQS 580, and why it’s limited to just 50 units.

Rear Seat Upgrades
The highlight of the EQS 580 Celebration Edition lies in its rear cabin enhancements. Mercedes has clearly listened to customer feedback and turned its attention to back-seat comfort—especially for chauffeur-driven owners.
Key upgrades include:
- A new massage function for the rear seats
- Additional lumbar support
- Increased recline angle up to 38 degrees
- Nappa leather upholstery for a more plush and premium feel
- The addition of the Chauffeur Package, which allows the front passenger seat to electronically tilt forward for more legroom in the rear
These changes transform the EQS 580 into a more luxury-oriented sedan, especially for buyers who spend most of their time in the rear seats.
Limited to 50 Units
Adding to its exclusivity, the EQS 580 Celebration Edition is restricted to just 50 units. This limited availability makes it more of a collector’s model for fans of the brand or for those looking for a bit more luxury in their electric vehicle.
Power and Performance
Underneath, the Celebration Edition retains the same performance-focused electric drivetrain as the standard EQS 580. That means:
- Dual-motor setup (one on each axle)
- Combined output of 516bhp and 855Nm of torque
- 107.8kWh battery pack
- ARAI-certified range of 857km on a single charge
This makes it one of the longest-range electric vehicles in India right now, suitable for both city use and long-distance cruising.
Charging Speed
Thanks to its 200kW DC fast-charging capability, the EQS 580 can be charged from 10 to 80 per cent in just 31 minutes using a compatible charger. This ensures you spend less time plugged in and more time on the road.
