Summary: Mercedes introduces steer-by-wire technology on the 2026 EQS, eliminating mechanical steering linkage for improved manoeuvrability and refinement. The system reduces lock-to-lock rotation to 170 degrees, enabling a yoke-style steering wheel and dramatically enhancing low-speed handling in the large luxury sedan.
