@fan_of_642 , Yes, but from the photo you can't see the grille surrounded by black plastic.......
That's right, but the teaser (not the adjusted pics) suggests that@fan_of_642 , Yes, but from the photo you can't see the grille surrounded by black plastic.......
PHEVguys a friend of mine pointed out something to me, in the teaser shown by Mercedes the petrol filler is on the left while in the test forklifts it is on the right of the car........
High gloss black. We hated it in the inside, now we get to hate it on the outside too.Yep… Seems like we can expect something silly around the grille. That black plastic seems to be for real.
But why are the fender and the hood black? I still believe this prototype is made from the fronts of two cars. There is still hope that the grill surrounding piece will be with the colour of the body.The black grill surround is on its way to the new E-Class without a doubt. It was already leaked in the production pieces earlier in this thread.
I am not a fan of it either but it does make it a little distinctive in the lineup.

i dont think this is how it looks likeThe prototype seen here is a single car. The black fender and hood are a clever disguise to distract from the black grill surround.
This render with the body color fender and hood, is pretty much what the E will look like.

So now we already know one thing that they will change in the facelift in four years’ time: they’ll remove the black plastic grille surround that all customers hated from day one (which they would have known from the start, had they bothered to ask customers)Yep… Seems like we can expect something silly around the grille.

And then we will get the new steering wheel as well, so better to waitSo now we already know one thing that they will change in the facelift in four years’ time: they’ll remove the black plastic grille surround that all customers hated from day one (which they would have known from the start, had they bothered to ask customers)
