EQS [Official] Mercedes-Benz EQS


The Mercedes-Benz EQS (V297) is a battery electric full-size luxury liftback car produced by Mercedes-Benz Group and part of the Mercedes-Benz EQ family. It was released in September 2021 in Germany and the fourth quarter of 2021 in the United States.
VAG have such big problems with the software, that the risk is all future EV projects to be delayed with two years. Diess is given time only to the beggining of the summer to solve them somehow, otherwise his head won't stay on his neck anymore.

The automotive industry, in general, is being plagued with significant uncertainties. Announced presentation schedules have been reduced to little more than conjecture. Herbert Diess is certainly on probation and an executive under pressure.

Concentrating solely on product: The Grand Sphere concept is such a delightful piece of designcraft that I cannot help but hope that much of it (albeit in a somewhat more compact package) will be accurately translated into a future A8 (or A9) eTron. As far as I know, the official presentation date stands at "sometime in 2024". As for when it will actually appear in showrooms remains unclear.
 
Looks great here:

Today we are talking about Design in Ljubljana. Our guest: the one&only Robert Lešnik (head of design exterieur Mercedes-Benz).

Could you perhaps ask Herr Lesnik about the future of the One Bow design paradigm ? Will it be carried forward or eventually abandoned in favour of something more similar to the design featured on the Vision EQXX and Vision AMG.EA electric GT ?

Much appreciated !

I grant the courage to present himself with that behind him being the person in charge of that design

No shit

Since you have him there, ask him what is going through his head, surely since you must be the only one in the audience, he will answer you
 
I've seen a couple: on in front of me in a pedestrian crossing and one in the autobahn. Not ugly, but just incredibly boring and cheap looking.
It really looks FWD hatch from the front....the way the hood goes to the windscreen pillars is so similar to the Megane 3 I used to own.
Proportions and greenhouse are terrible, reminds of a MPV (long, slim and tall). You have to be the brand blind no to see the obvious.
 

...but hardly "beauty pagaent material" to most eyes. The EQE sedan's somewhat smaller footprint appears to benefit the polarizing "One Bow" design. I had my first more comprehensive look at an EQE AMG 53 a bit earlier today and thought that it looked quite sharp, inside and out. A surprise as I've been seriously skeptical about this design paradigm. Must say, I like it rather than love it.

In general, I find myself being left rather unimpressed by what German manufacturers in general have been presenting more recently. Save Porsche.
 
As i’m saying, for all the haters:
first go and see the car in person. (And the spec&color combo is crucial here).
Then, drive it. Not around the block, but for at least a few hours. The car is the bomb.
Lešnik said, that there will be many other design language in the future. For their EQ’s, the first thing: they still must look beautiful, desirable and the EQS/EQE/EQC definitely are. I’m not so sure for the EQA and EQB..

Just saw the EQS in flesh this week,and sure its not the most beautiful car you can see on the streets but not as bad as the internet pictures make it look,i dont love it but its very catchy for the eye and a nice-looking vehicle,the front i nice looking and gives it that MB look ,you dont really notice the "egg shape" form, maybe the facelift will be better we dont know but this car should have been a lil bit more S-Classy.

Here some pics i took
