Of this quartet, the EQE SUV is by far the most popular. Mercedes-Benz has delivered 594 this year to the end of July, up 5.7 per cent on the same period last year.
It's followed by the EQE (90, down 13.5 per cent), the EQS SUV (22, down 72.2 per cent) and the EQS (2, down 66.7 per cent).
Mercedes-Benz removed the ability to configure a new EQE and EQS from its website last year, and while the model pages for these vehicles are still active, they stopped appearing in the vehicle range menu in March – something which the company has blamed on a technical issue.

Now, the EQE SUV and EQS SUV can no longer be configured via the website.
The EQE and EQS entered production in 2021, with their SUV counterparts following in 2022. All received styling dramatically different from equivalent combustion-powered Mercedes-Benz models, with more curvaceous – some would say blobby – styling.
Responding to criticism, Mercedes-Benz gave the EQS a facelift in Europe, bringing a more conventional grille, but this has yet to be confirmed for our market.
Earlier this year, Mercedes-Benz paused deliveries of all EVA-based models in the US due to slow sales.
The German automaker has said it's moving to a 'coherent design language' across its portfolio, and is also ditching separate EQ nameplates.

Victoria's new lesson plan rollout delayed almost a year due to IT issues
The cost of rolling out explicit teaching plans across Victorian schools has blown out by $1.6 million, with some plans delayed by almost 12 months. In June 2024, Victoria's Education Minister Ben Carroll announced high-quality lesson plans in English, maths, science, design and digital technologies that would place explicit teaching in every classroom. But the digital platform used to host and distribute the lesson plans – called ARC 4.0 – has been delayed by almost 12 months as suppliers redesigned content to align with the Victorian Teaching and Learning 2.0 model. Teaching plans for phonics, maths and English have been in use in classrooms for much of this year, and the science teaching plan was launched on Thursday, but the resources for design technology and digital technology have yet to be deployed. According to documents seen by The Age, the cost of the software program has blown out from a budgeted $1.11 million to $2.7 million as the government contract reveals at least $248,800 was granted to White Rose Education to review and rewrite existing mathematics lesson plans. The project, initially planned to be completed in 2024, is not due until December 31, 2025. Carroll said the resources would help to reduce teacher workload as well as support the delivery of high-quality teaching in every classroom.

Jeep Grand Cherokee PHEV price slashed by over $30,000 in runout sale
Jeep still has examples of its flagship Grand Cherokee in Australia, and it's offering major discounts to clear stock of the discontinued large SUV. The Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit Reserve 4xe plug-in hybrid (PHEV) is now being offered for $77,760 before on-roads, which is $33,090 less than its previous list price of $110,850 plus on-roads. There are 90 units remaining. For context, Jeep delivered 22 examples of the Grand Cherokee Summit Reserve 4xe from January to the end of July this year. Sharp runout deals across the discontinued large SUV range have helped increase sales. To the end of July, total Grand Cherokee sales are up 35.5 per cent year-to-date to 554 units, making it Jeep's best seller by some margin. CarExpert can save you thousands on a new Jeep Grand Cherokee. Click here to get a great deal. The flagship Grand Cherokee Summit Reserve 4xe was introduced here in 2023 with a price tag of $128,950 before on-roads before Jeep announced range-wide price cuts in May 2024. That makes its new price 40 per cent lower than its launch price. The Summit Reserve 4xe was the only WL Grand Cherokee offered here with the turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder PHEV powertrain, which was exclusive globally to the shorter, five-seat body style. It features a 17.3kWh battery and a claimed 52km of electric-only driving range under the more lenient NEDC cycle, as well as fuel consumption of 3.2L/100km and total system outputs of 280kW of power and 637Nm of torque. Jeep introduced the current WL series Grand Cherokee in Australia in 2022, arriving first in long-wheelbase, seven-seat L guise. However, the lack of a diesel didn't endear the large SUV to buyers and while it gained a PHEV option there was no longer a V8 option in Australia, even though one remained on sale in North America. Australian Grand Cherokee sales slumped, leading Jeep to slash prices by more than 20 per cent on some models in 2024. Jeep Australia subsequently pulled the plug on the Grand Cherokee in March 2025, before announcing savings in May of upwards of $22,000 on the base five-seat Limited as it runs out existing stock. A facelifted Grand Cherokee has been teased in the US, but won't be offered here.
