No more MB:(
It had gotten very confusing, too many variants. Personally I am not a fan of SUV's (G exempt) but I understand this is where the market is. Shame about coupes being cut, especially the S coupe. Always stunning.

Mercedes isn't really cutting anything though. What they're really doing is cutting what doesn't sell and adding more of what does sell. For every coupe and cabrio they're going to eliminate there is a new EV SUV or Sedan coming. If anything with EQXXXX the model lineup is about to get even more confusing. You gotta actually look at what their doing. You're now going to have two sedans at the S-Class level, the traditional S and now the EQS, so the space supposedly created by eliminating the S Coupe/Cabrio is still filled. The comes the EQS SUV next year. Then the EQE Sedan and SUV, so simplification is not true at all. The only reason coupes and cabrios are being cut is because they don't sell well enough not because somebody was confused. There has been an E or S-Class coupe for over 40 years to compliment the sedans.
