Good honest review. The car's design is very bland in white. I don't like the rear design at all, with the flat rear bumper and weird amoeba taillights, it just doesn't look like a Mercedes.
It’s just another dollop of Blob-o-Benz, a dish best served by Mercedes EQ.
It's an embarrassment. A knee jerk reaction to the EV market. Mercedes though per history almost never get the first generation of something right. There are exceptions, but still. How can they look at the SL or even GLE and then this thing and think they're the same brand?
I think there’s a considerable element of arrogance in BMW and Mercedes approach to design in their respective portfolios. Resting on the laurels of their brand cachet - that’s the only explanation for cars like this and the even more hideously rat-faced iX.
I dunno if that's it, but could be. I dunno. I just see a lot of ugly and/or bland/uninspired designs from both of them. I think BMW is being arrogant about it, but I think Mercedes is genuinely shell shocked by the industry changes and they're having to deal with the fact that they no longer set the tone or the pace like they did in the 80's and 90's.
Unreal, will be surprised if they sell 20 at that price, especially now the UK government are scaling back the tax breaks!Orders open in UK for electric, £129,170 Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV

Technically Mini has a floating roof, I understand the two tone to a different color that is born under the belt line
It looks so much better in metallic blue than the dull as dishwater white colour that was in another video posted recently.
