I found these pictures from a YouTube channel in the video I linked above that also has information about it in the description of the video. This guy has leaked some cars before and this 2016/17 W213 E-Class has all the signs of being a real pre-production MB to me or good rendering, so enjoy! The car hasn't even been caught testing yet! Can't wait for the return of the inline-six engine! I posted some W212 pics for comparison.

I like but the distance/parking sensors ruin the lines. I never put stock in "leaked pre production pictures".

If MB sticks to their usual timeline the W213 will be a 2017 model.
Honestly though i wouldnt be surprised if the W213 arrives early. IMO it is currently getting outclassed/outdated by the W205 C-Class

That pic is just looks like the current W212 with the S-Coupe tail lights.

More than likely Europe will get it first as a 2016 and then the U.S. will get it as a 2017.

I could see them going through with this look. Only issue is that I wouldn't want to get THAT in 2-3 yrs....it just doesn't look attractive enough.

I'm sure they will tweak it to look more advanced.

The last 4 renderings look similar to the current FL 2014 Luxury variant (compare to Eclassy's attractive car).

There are lots of internet renderings similar to the first group of 4 that you posted.
I for one hope that these are not accurate. But given the published photos of the new C Class, the future styling direction of MB sedans seems to be evident: more curvaceous and less angular.

The last four pictures are of the current W212. I just put them there for comparison. I'm 90% sure these could represent what it will look like.

I hope the NAV screen is enlarged but God forbid please not like the W205 or B200 (iPad Mini tag-on).

If you look closely in these pics you can see it sticking over the top of the dash, so it might work with the design.

According to the April issue of Automobile Mag - MB is dumping the V6 (due to cost) and reintroducing the straight six on the E350 for 2016 or 17 model.

Happy Days!!

The new straight six will also have twin turbos!

thanks for posting. i like the new sedan designs. they have done a good job modernizing and streamlining them - they remind me of the audi a4/a6/a8 looks and i don't think that's a bad thing at all. i'm not very fond of how they linked the sport nose into everything, but that's how they sell more cars so as long as there's a choice of luxury/sport it doesn't really matter.

bummer about the navi screen, if they used C-Class instead of S-Class for the E...

It looks to me like they will have combined elements of both the new S-Class and the new C-Class to give it the mid-size look that it's known for. It will probably look better than this.

Yes, I agree ! To my eyes, the 2014 W212 US Sport version looks too aggressive with the oversized star in the grill and the protruding lower aprons, front and rear.
The 'luxury' renderings for 2016/17 actually look quite attractive. Time will tell how accurate they turn out to be.

Pity that MB seems to have dumped the 4 headlights that gave the E Class such a distinctive look for so many years.

I hope you guys are kidding. This is a picture that some idiot photohopped the W212 with the BMW 4 series lower front fascia, the S coupe rear lights and the mirrors from the W222/W205.

It is not the W213! lmao.

No kidding! It was just a very interesting rendering that I found and thought it would be cool to share. Haha

The new E will get the S class screens. And MB is abandoning the click wheel controller for some kind of touch pad that relays hand movements to the instrument cluster screen - probably means the 2016 S will get that as well.

It's really not that bad.. And it's getting to the point of testing for the W213 so we may get to see some soon and have better renderings.
