I like current gen A LOT more. This looks bland, imo and class-unspecific. Could be anything from C to S class.

I don't know about you guys, but I just hate that front bumper look.. The current one looks a lot better. Also, I don't know about the lights.. If they were going to separate the main and parking lights in the first place, why not just leave it as quad lights?

Seems like MB is taking a major turn into the futuristic look.. All the cars have pretty much the same theme. Maybe it will look better when it comes out and I see it in person? As of the moment, not a very big fan of the new designs... The G wagon looks like a jeep


Now are they for real?!

 

ok, let me copy the whole thing here:



for the spring 2014 mercedes brings the M-class
with a 4cyl. diesel and the 6cyl. and 8cyl. have between 258ps and 525ps



The new Mercedes-face: Diamond Grill, LED light torches, three air intakes. The new Mercedes CL (name is not yet fixed, SLC is possible as well as SLR) will start late 2014





the new E-class



E-class coupe





The most popular SUVs can be found now in the compact class. For 2014, Mercedes is planning the GLA, (Basis on the new A-Class)





This computer illustration gives an outlook on the appearance of the standard version. The base model starts as CLA 180 with a 122-hp gasoline engine. Diesel engines are also in the program and make about 110 to 170 hp.



As top model, is a 350-hp CLA 25 AMG planned, with dynamic suspension.





The S-Class starts 2013 by new and celebrates on the IAA in Frankfurt. The seventh generation (internal model code W222) will of course again setting standards in the luxury class. Other drive options as a full hybrid with a gasoline engine and plug-in technology, and as a mild hybrid with diesel engines are planned.



Mercedes S 600 Pullman, after the end of maybach. mercedes wants do not leave the luxus class to rolls-royce and bentley. thats why mercedes brings a 6m50 long super s class on the market
like the example of the legendary 600er pullman from the 60s..





2014 comes the new generation of the c-class



cla shooting brake expected for 2014 (on the basis from the new a class)



Mercedes shrinks the G-model and plans from 2015, a compact edition of the ground-goer on A-class base. Like the real thing and the GLG uses an edgy appearance. The indicator on the flared fenders serve as position lights.

 

the m just looks the same as x6 . the cl is the best looking one among them. i think they have to be kidding about the s and pullman. they look like something like this in china :

 

I feel that they are really going overboard with the boldness of the front grills... It doesnt even match the car... like the S class one..

 

I have not seen some pics of this topic
Well, the limo is reminiscent of legendary 600 Pullman but headlamps look like you make R231 headlamps squash and put it there lol
Present W221 look nicer than the model that is illustrated here but overall it is OK

Only 1 model I dislike is that SUV that looks like cousin to X6

 

LOL!!!!


I like the CLA class too, pretty different from the pix I've seen, not as agressive as the model..........I will probably get one for my wife

 

I know these are all renders, but I really can't stand M-B's design language as every new car comes out.

The disjointed, non-flowing lines, the superfluous and trendy aspects that ensure the cars won't date well, all the "me-too" gimmicks, etc. Lots of disorient in the design team, IMO. I hate the dropping lines which don't flow with any other form of the cars, etc. It's like the design team is trying to mash together all these different elements to try and garner attention, but it just isn't working too well. Then you have these cartoon-y grilles, etc.

Looks like they'll be mashing the W212 up with some of those elements in the facelift as well.

 

I don't like the new E class, love the C class..E coupe,CLA and CL are nice. I don't get the ML how there making it like a x6/hatch back type thing.. same price less room. My biggest issue is that Mercedes is starting to make these smaller more compact cars, 4 cyl, and obv the price will be cheaper. Whats that mean, way more MB on the road, younger kids driving them, teenage kids.. Great for MB, more sales. Not soo much for the consumer who takes pride in the brand.

 

These pics of the E have been around for some time now and I'm still not buying them. Will wait for the real deal before passing any sort of judgment.

 

Here you go... This was spotted in Spain..

 

That has to be the AMG model. Much nicer front bumper than the 1st photo posted. Unless maybe that's the sport package as apposed to the luxury.

 

I'm thinking E-550 with sports pkg. I'm also thinking "not in my garage". I'll keep my 2011 and get a CLS..
