[TheDeadMan]

From this particular angle,like they play tricks on us with the new S-Klasse's front with a big star..lol.

Interior changes I notice so far:
- Steering (of course)
- MBUX
- No more rotary console controller, touch only (which I don't really like)

Exterior seems to be more CLSish, the grill seems to be more trapaziod shape, and the headlights are forward. The rear is where I'm concerned, it will ruin the car if the lights are connected and ended up like a big A class sedan.

Seems like new E is going complete digital. Analog clock is missing

Thankfully Grille without camouflage look bigger, or else would have been like a Japanese face

 

[Shellshock]

Very nice upgrade

 

[Merc1]

Anything on engine changes, like is the E450 going to get the I6 or if the E53 models get more power?

Facts about the new E-Class: exciting intelligence

Extensive model facelift

Stuttgart/Las Vegas. With over 14 million units delivered since 1946, the E-Class is the bestselling model
series in the history of Mercedes-Benz. Many regard it as the "heart of the brand." In 2016 the E-Class took
a major step into the future: the tenth generation sets styling highlights with its pure yet emotional design and
exclusive, high-quality interior. It also impressed with its wealth of innovations, including the driver assistance
systems. This emotional and smart combination has proven extremely successful: to date more than one million
customers around the world have decided in favor of the current-generation E-Class Sedan or
E-Class Wagon. The E-Class intelligence is becoming even more exciting and dynamic: in summer 2020 the
sedan and wagon will be in the showrooms of our European sales partners as the first representatives of the
extensively facelifted model series. The long wheelbase sedan (China), coupe and cabriolet will soon follow.
Key facts:
 Next level of Intelligent Drive
o Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC with route-based speed adjustment: with the help of information
from LiveTraffic, the E-Class can recognize and respond to traffic jams and slow-moving traffic even
before the driver becomes aware of them. When a traffic jam is detected (and if the driver does not
choose a different response), DISTRONIC reduces the speed to around 62 mph as a precaution.
o Active Traffic Jam Assist: in the event of a highway traffic jam where there are lane markings, this can
substantially assist the driver with lane-keeping and maintaining a safe distance at speeds up to
around 37 mph.
o Active Steering Assist: can assist the driver in forming an emergency lane on multi-lane roads.
o Active Brake Assist with cross-traffic function: if there is a danger of a collision with oncoming traffic
when making a turn across a highway, the E-Class can brake at the speeds typical of such maneuvers.
o Active Blind Spot Assist with exit warning: this function can lower the risk of a collision with other road
users, for example passing cyclists. Active Blind Spot Assist also monitors the blind spot when at a
standstill, and can warn the driver of approaching vehicles, motorcycles or bicycles when opening the
door.
o Parking Package with 360° camera: Side View gives the Parking package a new function that keeps an
eye on the entire side of the vehicle. The extended side view makes it easier to maneuver alongside
nearby, parallel obstacles such as curbs and garage walls.

 Enhanced interior comfort comfort
o New steering wheel generation with touch control buttons (control by swiping a touchscreen surface)
o Large display screens as standard (2 x 10.25 inches)
o Mercedes-Benz User Experience (MBUX) with "Hey Mercedes" voice control and augmented reality
(additional information such as house numbers is shown virtually in the video image of the
surroundings on the media display, and traffic lights are also shown)
o Interior Assist (allows intuitive, natural operation of different comfort and MBUX functions by
movement recognition)
o ENERGIZING Comfort Control with ENERGIZING COACH (individual fitness recommendations based on
an intelligent algorithm, integration via wearables)
o ENERGIZING seat kinetics and Power Nap (in conjunction with 48-volt system or plug-in hybrids)
o New Air Quality Indicator function (for megacities)
o Via Mercedes me: Mercedes-Benz Urban Guard (all-around surveillance of the parked vehicle with the
following functions):
 Collision damage warning
 Tow-away protection warning
 Anti-theft warning
 Tracking function in case of theft
 Owner's ability to deactivate the vehicle key by smartphone as a preventive measure if the
key is lost or stolen
 Efficient Technology Initiative: electrification of the powertrain
o Seven plug-in hybrids, among them 4MATIC variants and wagons
o New in-line engines:
 M 254: two-liter, four-cylinder gasoline engine with ISG (Integrated Starter-Generator) and 48-
volt onboard network, rated output: 268 hp; up to additional 20 hp with EQ Boost/ISG,

What about M254 engine?

It will just be the new modular engine with the isg mild hybrid. The version quoted so far produces 272ps/200kw

I love the new hexagonal grille, it looks awesome, specially in the exclusive line.
I dont like the two-piece tail lights, i dont like them in the CLS and i know already i will not like them in the new W/V223.
I dont understand this: in Canada, when the W/V222 was introduced, Gorden Wagener said to the guys of „Fünf komma sechs“ that the one piece tail light is a typical Mercedes feature, because all other car brands have two piece tail lights and now he‘s doing the same.

One nice thing MB is doing lately is designing standard front ends which look great without the need of adding the AMG pack.

I think the one on the right is the E53, or what it will look like.

In either case, the shut line looks out of place with the new grill shape and headlights.
-definitely should have been changed IMO.

 

[empower77]

Looks like it will get the CLA sedan style rear light treatment.... hmmm. Front already looks a lot more crisp. Curiously, I wonder how the non sport grille will look like on this facia, or are they dropping it completely?
