Out of the gate, you will find many comparable features. Both cars include standard wireless charging and a standard panoramic sunroof. Both also have a similar central screen. The Tesla has a 17-inch screen but the 2022 EQS 580 4MATIC® gets an even larger 17.7-inch screen and adds a 12.3-inch screen that’s dedicated to the front-row passenger. You don’t find that second screen on a Model S.
Another feature that you won’t find on a Model S is rear-axle steering which adds to the standard maneuverability and comfort of the 2022 EQS. The EQS also has available massaging seats, not just in front but also in the rear.
Additionally, the EQS offers far more customization options with 10 exterior paint options, 10 interior leather options, and you also get 7 wheel options and 5 interior trim options. The Model S only has two wheel options and your trim isn’t selectable.
