The trickle of teaser images of the upcoming Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV continues as we approach the all-electric model’s big unveiling, set for April 19.

The EQS SUV is clearly optimized for aerodynamics, which is kind of essential for an EV that needs to maximize range. We also make out what looks like a new LED running light design. Like with other EVs to date from Mercedes, we discern a daytime running light strip spanning a closed-off front grille, and in back, a slim LED light bar across the tailgate.

Images of the camouflaged EQS SUV in testing have already made the rounds online, so there are no great shocks here.
