Additional Notes
- All four configurations in the Mercedes-Benz EQS-Class SUV X296 lineup share a 24-month brake fluid change interval under normal use conditions.
- Rather than specifying a fixed fill volume in liters or quarts, each configuration calls for a fluid level maintained between the reservoir's minimum and maximum marks, which is the standard approach for brake fluid service on hydraulic systems.
- The EQS 450+, EQS 450 4MATIC, and EQS 580 4MATIC carry a starting year of 2022, while the EQS 680 4MATIC Maybach carries a starting year of 2023.
- A 24-month change interval for brake fluid reflects the hygroscopic nature of glycol-based brake fluids, which absorb moisture over time and lower the fluid's boiling point regardless of mileage accumulation.
- The hydraulic brake system note applies uniformly across all four configurations, including the EQS 680 4MATIC Maybach, confirming that even the Maybach variant retains a conventional hydraulic braking circuit rather than a purely brake-by-wire setup.
