Hot! Mercedes-Benz, What's Next?

[Uygar]

That's what you get with dictators, for the most part.

Very sad.

Unfortunately. I'm not even gonna mention his name cause I can end up in literal JAIL !!!

 

[Mr. Mercedes]

I think it looks better than anything Benz has come up with for at least a decade, whether concept or production.

Of course you do.

These new interiors from BMW have absolutely no architectural relationship to the drver focused luxury sport cockpits that defined this brand.

BMW has literally gone all out generic EV with this interior layout. But it's no surprise the aficionados stand by it.

I don't think klier was talking about BMW's interior.

The trapezoidal display doesn't do it for me, in terms of making that driver-focused cockpit feel a BMW should have.
But we're wandering off topic again.

I don't think Mr Mercedes thought Klier was talking about the BMW... but since the Mercedes came of worse in Klier's comparison, the BMW must be criticised also.

Hence......Neue Klasse. Are you getting that then at least?

 

[Mr. Mercedes]

I am very aware of the Neu Klasse rollout, but these changes are being rolled out across all of BMW’s models.

It’s a complete abandonment of the core elements that made most of us BMW fans in the first place. Sporty luxury dynamics and design with driver-oriented sport luxury interiors. What we’re left with now are interiors with surface-level design . They are not true to BMW's DNA.

Most of the 'supporters' here only back this direction because it has a BMW badge on it, not because it’s true to what BMW was.

 

[Swissbob]

Unfortunately you’re 100% right.

We didn’t become BMW Fans because of the Tesla like interior.

 

[Mr. Mercedes]

Cant wait to see the new head of design at Mercedes in October!

What? Where has been stated that Mercedes is announcing a new Chief Designer in October?

There are rumors about that, I read it on the comments section of the mbpassion blog.

I think apart from the EQE/EQS, Mercedes Benz design hasn’t been very controversial.

 

[Swissbob]

BTW in the new auto motor sport Magazine, they visited Manufaktur.

I found it interesting that they produce the Headliner for the GLS in Sindelfingen, because there’s no company in the USA who can produce it.
I guess it’s the Maybach GLS headliner.

50 years of that....
If the change bothered them, BMW fans would be ranting and raving, but to my surprise, they've accepted it and the vast majority like it and actually enjoy the new approach. The screen is trapezoidal so it's "oriented" towards the driver, so technically...

Wow interesting.

Do we know who the designer is in the photos taking centre stage at the GLC launch? What is his background and is he rumoured to be taking over from Gordon?

Surprised Gordon has been bad mouthing BMW and Audi if hes about to leave Mercedes.

The general public accepting it I understand.

My point is specifically in relation to forum members.

 

[Swissbob]

We already saw it at the GLC launch. Gorden wasn't the one describing the car.

@Mr. Mercedes
This gentleman on the left?
That’s Mathias Geisen.

I guess I was wrong

Better to put 'us fans' in brackets, since you're not one of them. And quite frankly I wouldn't even expect a die hard MB fan to understand. You guys tend to be pretty narrow minded for the most part.

Good times. The fanboy wars are properly heating up again.

lol again.

Sorry if I find Audi's concept 10 times more appealing than the latest whorehouse cinema.
Mercedes is top to bottom run by literal clowns. Ola even sounds like a clown name.

Whorehouse, that’s just my cup of tea! The main reason why I drive Mercedes …
