What's with all the pointless design speculation.

We know where MB is heading, and it is apparently the new chief designers evolution of Sensual Purity.

Regardless of whatever we think on this forum, Mercedes has already said Gordon's hand extends into the next 10 years of design. 6 or 7 realisticly IMO.

Thanks for the info, Gordon designs until 2035 then. This proves the soft and fluid designs aren’t going anywhere yet. I’m assuming the big differences will be on the graphics side, while other areas remain pretty similar.

You can change the design until 3yrs pre launch, therefore it’s still possible to bin a lot of things from Gorden.

BTW in the German magazine ( manager magazine) there’s an interesting article about GW.

He behaved like someone who’s even bigger than good, living in California all the time, and only sometimes visiting Europe.

His biggest baby was the EQS, he’s still convinced about that car, although in the car clinic where pre production cars are showed people who must sign a NDA, no car in the history of Mercedes Benz had a worse feedback.
Nevertheless he was absolutely convinced that he’s right, and he told them you can’t ask people about a car they’re going to buy in 3 yrs.

That’s why he had to go.

Yikes. It’s funny cause I read something like this the other day.

Gonna age like milk, since the upcoming E-Class EV has a proper three-box design. 🤣

Jokes aside, he was clearly running out of ideas. That’s why the designs were getting repetitive and uninspiring.
