I like the center console much better with the Hyperscreen which also seems to be nicely integrated into the dash and door trim. Looks better than anticipated.
Looks S-Class to me, but the seat back depth looks thin compared with previous models. Seats in my view are one of the definitive differences in a Mercedes interior compared with almost any other brand.
It's going to be really different for Mercedes, it's a good move. I wonder if the proportions of the car are going to be S class in size.
With the EQS interior, i really love they have the blade air vents above the screen instead of the ones on the S which look like dogs *****
The EQS interior is larger than the S-Class, a side benefit from the dedicated EV platform, along with the slightly longer wheelbase (128.3" vs 126.6" for LWB W223)

Hopefully they have more colors. White, cream and Black is a bit limited. Also copying Tesla. What about Non-light non-Black colors like Saddle Brown, Cohiba or Espresso Brown, or Cricket Ball Red.
I like this seat design but too bad they don’t have it with the diamond stitching.
The seats look like a new architecture, similar to W223 seats. They look to have less substance in my view. W221 and W22 seats are more "chairs" and are very robust looking and comfortable to sit in. It will be interesting to read when someone has compared W222, W223 and EQS seats against each other.
@js_cls where are you getting these additional photos and information? Do they have more paint colors, trim options, etc.
I’m also curious if they have the new S-Class 30” HUD because I don’t see the bin on the dash.
From the Official Daimler Press Release and the seats and other information is from Gordon Wagner (Lead Mercedes Designer) who has been sharing a lot of images and videos on his Instagram. No exterior colors or trim option information other than what has already been posted right now.
As for the HUD, I found this excerpt.

Interior is so much better than the W223's! Hope the exterior lives up to the interior design.
I think it will look great but they went for an exterior that provides range optimizing aero. It is functional design. Old school people won’t like it.
Some notes from Autoblog
Exterior details
We wish Mercedes had shown us the car with no camouflage already, but that’ll require some more patience. Today, it told us how the new “one-bow” design (a single unbroken body line from fender to rear bumper) contributes to it being the most aerodynamic production car in the world. Its coefficient of drag is a minuscule 0.20, which beats every other car on the market today, even the new Tesla Model S that is quoted at 0.208. Its drop shape (the rear end tapering backwards) is what Mercedes called out as one big key to its low drag. One other neat tidbit: There are no shut lines in the hood to give it the cleanest lines possible in front.
Mercedes also told us about its new exterior lighting design. The headlights have a three-dot running light signature that are connected via a light band. The grille itself has a subtle light-up star pattern in it. At the rear, the taillights are meant to look like a 3D helix, inspired by old helical elements in lightbulbs.
I sure hope not. Would be hard to abruptly replace decades of legacy and lineage overnight with an EQS and pin this as the flagship. Plus the exterior is anything but stylish or class. However at this point in the automotive world I guess anything is possible.
They would likely need to retire the S before that happens.
