It’s been nearly nine years since the first delivery of the Tesla Model S and, love it or not, it’s a template that the 2022 Mercedes EQS has to stand up to. As the first true Model S alternative—roughly the same size, but with more cab-forward luxury, Mercedes went a long way in cementing the impression that it’s going to...
