For some reason I like that front and rear end with the AMG night package better. Plus the newer ones is just that much more work to clean the Bug juice and detail the rock dings on the surfaces. As it is now it manageable to clean and make spot fixes.

The article states "renders" so is this actually how it will look or just the artists imagination?

This one is pretty close to the spy pictures available so far.

Looks like they will go for 2 separate screens for the second facelift, that's actually a downgrade if you ask me. Regarding the exterior, if will probably resemble the new E-class.

I still prefer the non-facelift exterior and would be hard pressed to trade for the current offering, let alone this softer design that's making rounds online.
I highly doubt there'd be 2 separate screens as shown on that video. It looks out of place. If they do change, I'm pretty sure they would have to redesign the dashboard to be similar to the current E Class.

Check the source of the provided images. Then, overlay that with the fact that MB fully exited that market last year.

Actually, they did plan to exit by 2035 but they changed that idea and strategy which I believe announced a month or so ago that they planned to continue ICE development due to the slowing down of the EV market plus didn't some people say MB might had figured out how to get a V8 to comply with EU7?
