Its got a lot off c class to the overall shape and design

the lights seem a bit different from what we wre seeing in erlier chops

it seems to have a little sl or cls influence on the lights and a different bumper


yes you can see that the rear wheel arch goes into the rear lights


well i hope its not going to look like a bigger c class because we see the spy pics off the interior is going to be similar to the c

i would have liked the e and c to have slightyly different exteriors and definately different int designs like the current e and previous c they were very different

I am loving those LEDs in the grills I hope the e-class turns out like this, it's very sleek and stylish Audi will have to make something very special to have a chance with e-class....BUT I'm sure Audi can do it

The interior has more character compared with the C, and it leans more towards the GLK.

Looks Ok. Doesn't look as nice as the current generation yet. Will wait for the reveal before deciding on my position. The rear looks quite ordinary but it may be quite hidden for all we know.

If the interior is like the C or GLK then Mercedes is not trying hard enough with interiors.

I hope this car is great.

I wonder if the new E-class will get LED foglights like the current Audi S6 and the Mercedes GLK conceptcar.
In the spyphoto you can see there's white-ish horizontal bar behind the camouflage where usually the foglights should be located.
They have been kind of testing the foglights in which seemed to be dual foglights a la Brabus style, perhaps they were just testing a wide setting of LED's.

The inner headlight unit which sits next to the grille. There's a thing that looks white and shiney and stands vertical, could it be LED as well?
Kind of like the ones that can be found on the Mercedes F700 conceptcar? Anyway I could be wrong though, any thoughts?

Can somebody confirm ...

Is the rear wheel arc on the sedan actually concave???!!!


Very brave move, if that's the case.

I'm not looking forward to those very SL facelift look-a-like headlights. Side profile looks typically brillaint Mercedes except I prefer how BMW deals with the C pillar.

This car looks nothing like a BMW, EnI. Concave, Convex or Con-whatever where not invented by BMW. If a car needs a concave surface to create the best design then so be it. BMW do not own concave and convex design patterns.

I do agree on the design of this car being very brave. They have either designed this car perfectly right or just plain wrong! I can't decide yet. No one should be able to either as the car hasn't been relesed...

I do not have a direct resemblance to BMW in mind when saying this is the first "MBMW model" by MB, but what I want to point out is MB started to follow the trends (eg. convex / concave surfaces with sharp creases), and using more expressive design elements than ever before recently. Nothing bad in doing that. Everybody is following the trends.

I love to see more expressive design from MB - done in modern way (convex / concave with sharp creases).

Now I see OCD exterior styling ("flame surfaced") wasn't just a coincidence & "had no agenda" like eg. some claimed (eg. Marcus ).

Looking at the shutlline for the rear door, it doesn't look like the rear wheel arch will be concave

I think the new E will have quad lights so the lights won't be joint together like the SL facelift.
