From playground turf to raised flower beds, we know there has been no shortage of ways that the world has tried to make use of and/or recycle used car tires. Being no stranger to the sustainability conversation, Mercedes-Benz has come up with a new way to use this commonly thrown away item. In the past year, Mercedes-Benz has taken no small measure to try to reduce their carbon footprint. From the new Mercedes-EQ electric vehicle line-up including sedans and SUVs, to the various other on-going projects, the German company is always looking for new ways to become more ethical. In an effort to improve even more, Mercedes-Benz has been rethinking the composition of their materials. Ever the pioneers of the automotive industry, they have made it their goal to increase the share of recycled materials in its passenger car fleet to an average of 40 percent by 2030! This goal is what brought the use of tires to be. "Through close cooperation with our supplier network, we are replacing raw fossil resources with pyrolysis oil made in part from recycled tyres supplied by Mercedes-Benz. Components featuring this technology will enter series production in a number of our models as early as this year. We anticipate being able to chemically recycle several hundred tons of scrap tyres from Mercedes-Benz vehicles each year and to use the resulting plastic in our new vehicles. Together with our partners, we are closing the material cycle and actively driving the development of innovative recycling processes,” According to their website, they are working closely with their supplier in an effort to reuse the oil made from scrap tires by chemically recycling. This new plastic will apparently be certified in accordance with the mass balance approach, an independent certification that confirms that said supplier replaced the quantity of fossil resources from tire recycling. This will be the first time in history that pyrolysis oil from recycled tires will be combined with biomethane! Way to go, Mercedes-Benz and BASF! These new materials will match up to the Mercedes-Benz standard in safety and paintability. This is revolutionary for the automotive industry because these new parts will have the potential to replace a large number of vehicle components made from primary plastic. The Mercedes-EQ EQE and S-Class made in 2022 will be the first series-production models to include the new biomethane and pyrolysis materials that were created from the old tires. The S-Class will also include a crash absorber based on these materials. This huge step in material sourcing really goes to show that Mercedes-Benz is taking their Ambition 2039 mission seriously. This objective of Mercedes-Benz states that they intend to create a CO2-neutral new car fleet in less than 20 years. Being Mercedes-Benz lovers from Long Island, we are especially thankful that the company has decided to focus on the careful use of resources in their new manufactured vehicles. Sustainability has always been an important part of a Long Island resident’s life, whether you have been raised in Nassau County, Suffolk County, or out East, and we are glad that vehicle companies that people drive in the Huntington, Commack, and Northport area reflect that as well!

If you have been a part of the car scene for the past couple of months then you know that this is the era of the electric vehicles, or EVs for short. Every automotive company has been churning out electric versions of their most popular vehicles. Last year it was the 2022 EQS for Mercedes-Benz, an electric version of their flagship vehicle, the S-Class. Becoming an instant hit, Mercedes-Benz has furthered the Mercedes-EQ line with their all-new all-electric SUV: the EQS SUV 450+. This groundbreaking SUV is the first large luxury SUV from Mercedes-EQ that seats up to seven people. This Mercedes-Benz is expected to rival both the Tesla Model X and BMW iX with an estimated range of 373 miles. Similar to the 2022 EQS, the EQS SUV will have two trim levels: the 450+ with rear-wheel drive and the dual-motor EQS SUV 580 4MATIC. According to The Verge, "The 450+’s 265kW rear-axle motor will put out 265kW of energy, enabling 355 horsepower and 419 pound-feet of torque. The 580 4MATIC configurations front and rear-axle motors put out a combined 400kWh, for 536 horsepower and 633 pound-feet of torque.". Not only that, but the EQS SUV will also feature the Hyperscreen. With MBUX, Navigation, Voice Recognition with " Hey-Mercedes! ", Apple Carplay, Android Auto and so much more, you will truly have the world at your fingertips. Taking style direction from both the 2022 EQS, EQE, and EQB, the EQS SUV mimics the grille, single-tail light setup, and wheelbase size of 126 inches. Being an SUV, this new EV differentiates itself from the EQS by size of course. The EQS SUV will be over 7.8 inches higher than the 2022 EQS sedan. Sitting at a whopping 202 inches long, 77 inches wide, and 68 inches tall, the EQS SUV is slightly slimmer and shorter than the 2022 Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class. This electric SUV is scheduled to go into production at the Mercedes-Benz plant in the next few months, making the EQS SUV available to Mercedes-Benz drivers in Huntington, Northport, Commack, Fort Salonga, and all over the world very soon! Whether you take the EQS SUV on the Northern State Parkway, LIE, or even just Jericho Turnpike, this SUV is made to be eye-catching, advanced, sustainable, and convenient.
