Admittedly OT, but the Panamera II rendering on the Autozeitung cover is looking splendid. Hopefully, it reflects what is to come.

Wow that Exterior and the Interior as we already know if this car doesn't hit my Garage then their is something wrong with me.

 

[GTA45E]

Really like that interior... It`s a class winner!

Gordan Wagner said sometime back (under his direction) that the upcoming C-Class, E and S will offer more up-scaled, detailed interiors than the competition. So far it looks like he is delivering.

Just imagine what they're doing to do for the next E-Class!

Indeed. I can imagine it will be much closer to the S-Class.

The more I look at it the more I love it. I can't wait to try this car out next year. Not the path I expected (SL) to take back to Mercedes-Benz ownership. Imagine the W205 C55 AMG next to the 650i.

A mix of both the C-Class and S-Class interiors... just imagine!
I'm sure that the E-Class' interior will once again have some distinctive design elements...
I'm almost 100% sure that it will be The Interior of all interiors... My expectations have never been so high!
Please Benz, deliver!

I am happy because we are talking about a company that everyone said is going get bankrupt. Some one should create a documentary of Merc's comback, it's amazing if you look at all the issues that the company went through. Thank Dieter Zetsche you saved this comapny and without you and your team this wouldn't have been possible.

I think more than anything Mercedes has realized that they don't have to pander to people who pinch pennies like they did during Shremp era. Secondly they realize that more than BMW or Audi, a Benz has to be reliable and function as intended every time. It has to be of shimmering quality and superior reliability again. Along with safety and all of their other traditional values. Make the best car possible within a sizeable budget, not a shoe string budget, and the sales will come. People will pay through the nose for the right car. No need to cheap out anymore. Make the C-Class the best in the segment, give C-Class buyers a true dose of Mercedes-Benz luxury. That is what they appear to be doing. This will be totally realized once the E-Class is brough back up to form for 2016-2017. No more excuses. I expect this car to launch with all the latest tech and for it to work as advertised. 9G, touchpad, HUD, things the 2015 S-Class will also inherit.

Does S class have touchpad?

 

[Wolfgang]

^ Sort of. The S-Class has a "touch-sensitive keypad".

Does S class have touchpad?

Not yet. The next year model will come with 9G-Tronic and new Command.

Just to remind you, this is what MB offered back when the W204 debuted, compared to the E90 3er and the B7 A4:

The W204 interior was a shame for MB, an interior that every designer currently at MB should be ashamed about.

Now compare the W205 interior with its competitors on the market:

And I won´t put pics of the 2009 E-Class because I don´t want to be cruel, but compare it to the F10 5er or current A6 interiors.

I´m glad MB has finally up the game and return to its natural place as top german manufacturer interior.

 

[Kowalski]

Mr. Mercedes would disagree with you, considering that he had a pre-FL W204 and a pre-FL A4 B8.

W204 debut interior was horrendous. We had a C320 CDI, well specced with wood trim and beige leather. It wasn't bad in that spec. But go for grey on grey and it was suicidally Opel Astra.

 

[Wolfgang]

... and its integrated, extendable screen proved to be failure-prone?
Suspect that's one reason MB replaced it with the facelift.

Well, they kinda have the A, B and CLA for that.... All good cars, just catering to a different market.

With all the buttons gone, the interior feels a bit minimalistic (not complaining)
