2022 E450 All-Terrain

There will be an all-terrain in Europe, alongside this regular wagon. And as far as I know, only the All-terrain variant will arrive into the US.

I am not a big fan of the claddings (don't consider them "horrid" however), but I do appreciate the extra 2 inches of ground clearance that the All-Terrain gets, over the standard Wagon.

S214 All Terrain is what it is when arriving in North America

The least Mercedes-Benz USA (importer) could do is make optional the painting of the wheel arches and trim. .. Not a fan of the All Terrain body trim however not offended either. ..
If I had my druthers,,, MB-USA put us down for the Elegance Wagon build complete with the traditional 3-Pointed Star on the engine hood. .. Go'in old sckool...

The guy's over at Audi USA (importer) provide the A6 Allroad wagon with a body-color option for the wheel arches; In many, although not all metallic paint finishes.

Yes, true luxury brands like Porsche (evidently also premium brand Audi) offer painted wheels arches. Black plastic wheel arches are not luxury.

Anyone got the see the car in person yet? Looks like Canadian dealership was able to already, but closed event so I couldn't had attended.

"Dealers also provided a taste of Mercedes' forthcoming lineup. The event showcased eight vehicles, including the redesigned E-Class sedan, AMG SL 43 roadster, and Maybach EQS. The brand likewise introduced the electric CLA sedan and GLC crossover, perhaps indicating that it would be dumping the EQ branding to roll EVs into the core lineup."

I had a chance to see a new wagon that was undergoing hot weather testing. Beautiful car. There is more legroom in the back seat than the current car. The superscreen looks good. I'm even warming to the tail lights.

Maybe wishful thinking...

Its not on sale. I think this may just be a corporate garage. The press drives are taking place in Vienna today though.
