New E Class Interior

I know this isn't an E Class forum, but damn. Mercedes are killing the completion in terms of interior design in every segment. I sense an upgrade to my C450 in 2/3 years!

Me too.
Not surprised to see the all digital dash from the S Class. When's the new 5 series due? They'll probably do a fine job with that one as well.

That interior is beautiful. I'm wondering if the exterior is going to look like a middle child version of the s-class and c-class though.

Wow, very nice overall. But am I the only one that doesn't like digital dashes?

To me, you can't beat a real set of gauges, especially on a driver's car. I know Audi is doing this as well and I don't like theirs either. You can digitize anything, but don't touch the gauges!! I prefer the real thing to a simulation...

Just need to see what the exterior will look like. I'm assuming they will get an AMG Sport version as well... Looking forward to the launch in January!

Give them time - eventually, instead of one big screen for the digital instrument panel, they'll have small screens in individual cubbies on the dash - one will be designated for the speedo, one for the tach, etc. You'll be able to change the color of the dial, the font the numbers appear in, etc. I'm sure it's being worked on in R & D somewhere.

The screen is one of the features I like about that interior.

Not all that sold on it - just going from the still image of that video. Will check out the full video when I get in from work.

However, the way they break the lines between the centre console and the centre vents .. it just does not look quite right. Not to speak of a most peculiar mixture of beige, black and white.

I don't like the large digital dash either...I'd feel like I was driving a flat screen TV...

Wow. This definitely moves the e class up a couple of notches. I though the c class made the current e class look stale, but if this is around the corner, there better be some big discounts on the 2016 e class coming up in the new year.

For me, I wanted something a little bit sportier, so I am very happy with my c450. This interior looks more boulevard cruiser (not that there is anything wrong with that).

Kinda cluttered interior. Looks like it was made with spare parts leftover from the S and C class.

I quite like it but you're not wrong about leftovers. It's literally the S and C interiors sandwiched together with a few alterations.

Not necessarily a bad thing since those are both class leading interiors; seems the designers took the E class mid-range model position literally
