time will tell but what makes you think its fake? i got the picture from Motorclass1

One reason is that "detectors of AI-created images" have confirmed that this image is the work of AI

I’m curious about the new wheel designs. They always excite me, I don’t know why, lol.

Even with Mercedes design foibles, they've always had baller rims.

Because that would be going down the rabbit hole?

 

[Satanicom]

I think we'll see full leak 2-3 days before reveal. I bet on next Monday!

This is what a person who’s working on Mercedes Exterior design team said about my AI image

Power of some prompts and AI

Could be any random benz from 2010 with trash deco-kit from Temu.

Whatever, regarding the real deal I have no hope for this after the awful CLA, GLB, GLC… they are stuck in a past era without knowing what’s going around.

Real

Seems like it'll look handsome enough.
More like the W222. The slightly larger and thicker headlights are needed in my opinion

no leak still? damn Mercedes

They not getting sloppy this time around

The truth only comes out when high-quality photos are released; blurry leaks have proven time and again that they only tell half the story... even so, I want to see them.

a blurry leak would hit like crack and all the doomers will show up “omg look what they have done to our S Class “

 

[Satanicom]

Today or Tomorrow i expect full leak.

You just predicted the immediate future

This looks pretty pretty good

Looks like a render. Not quite accurate, but seems close.

It is a render and i think it is 80-90% close to the real thing

 

[Uygar]

Yuck. I guess the only thing on their vision board was “stars”

 

[Esp5]

The only thing worse than the wait are the last-minute renders; I hope the taillights don't look like that, like a cheap patch job of what was there before.

Even if it's just a render, it will be a very close facelift. Unfortunately, it's disappointing. As I said the other day, when I think about the last four generations of the S-Class model, the W223 has been the least successful.
