Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the backseat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Mercedes-Benz EQE 350 than in the Lexus RX 500h, due to its greater head- and legroom. The Mercedes-Benz EQE 350 offers just a little more front head- and legroom than the Lexus RX 500h, offering the driver and front passenger a bit more room and comfort.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). Clearly, the Lexus RX 500h is a better financial choice over the Mercedes-Benz EQE 350, when considering MSRP.

Dimensions
The Lexus RX 500h is a little narrower than the Mercedes-Benz EQE 350, so you'll have an easier time getting in and out of the car in a tight parking spot. When looking at overall length, the Lexus RX 500h takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the Mercedes-Benz EQE 350.

Handling
The Lexus RX 500h has a smaller turning radius than the Mercedes-Benz EQE 350, allowing you to more easily maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
The Lexus RX 500h has a little more horsepower than the Mercedes-Benz EQE 350.

Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the Lexus RX 500h does a much better job of transmitting its engine's horsepower to its wheels than the Mercedes-Benz EQE 350.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Lexus RX 500h and the Mercedes-Benz EQE 350. The Lexus RX 500h has less cargo space than the Mercedes-Benz EQE 350, which is okay if you don't need to move a lot in one trip.
