EQS [Renders] 2020 Mercedes-Benz EQS

[Deleted member 48992]

I haven't been on this forum for a couple of days, and when i came back i had to read through pages up and down about how the design is a failure, it looks like a Citroen etc.

When going for a drive in an EQS, would that constitute Mercedes egging you on?

M-Bs' design department will certainly have egg on its' face should the EQS not be a commercial success. Potential customers scrambled to the competition, whose designers did not poach ideas from Citröen.

How is called a crashed EQS - omelette.

Did you guys know that the EQS failed its summer Elk test? It rolled over and land on its sunny side up

So it rolled over easy, huh ?

Thankfully for Mercedes, competition is thin on the ground. Thankfully for Mercedes, fleet customers who want to reap the tax benefits of an EV or lower their CO2 emissions, will buy the EQS even if it's a bit unattractive. Think about the Prius. It's not pretty but has sold extremely well.

Jimmy, this is VW's Trinity project. Should be somewhat related to Audi's Landjet project.

As anyone can see, the three-box sedan bodyshape would be gone in the electric era

The silhouette really appeals to my eyes. Mind you, this will tentatively be presented in 2026 and oceans of water will pass under the bridge until then. The car illustrated here is a smaller sized entry, its' exterior dimensions situated somewhere between those of the current Golf and Passat. In any event, VAG appears to be in the process of consolidating all envisioned BEV endeavours into a single, highly scalable enterprise. What I find very refreshing is that VAG appears to have no intention of abandoning low ride height vehicles in favor of an increasing armada of higher ride height SUVs'/CUVs'/SACs'.

This seems like a regular sedocoupe shape.

Well, 98% EQS

I think the Mercedes-Benz EQS will be a huge success because as you all know, the captains of industry are more than willing to ditch a V12 for an electric motor. The Rolls-Royce 102EX sells like hot cakes, after all.

The use of Batteries allows an abundance of space and this is where the point of EQS comes into play. The fact that they are playing up the expected S-Klasse features here shows they have confidence in what it will offer and appeal to the traditionalist but entice them with the new.
A gamble? One they expect they will win.

That's an Opel Insignia.

To my eyes, the white car looks surprisingly good.

Wow that’s actually stunning, in white with those large rims, very futuristic. It very much reminds me of the Lagonda Vision concept

It looks quite lovely
