The Hyperscreen package also includes a computer with 24GM of RAM and eight CPU cores to process over 46GB of memory.

The EQS SUV offers the full gamut of platforms including AM, FM, DAB+ radio, online radio streaming, and both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto applications. For ultimate listening pleasure, the big Benz comes with a 15-speaker Burmester sound system complete with Dolby Atmos surround.
