Look at the size of this lad.

It's probably as long as a 4 door Maybach. You could comfortably fit a V16 under that enormous bonnet if they felt like making one.
Excited to see what this ends up looking like.

No point in having two discussions in two threads about the same thing.

So at last when BMW and Audi seems to be moving on from large fugly griils, Mercedes is picking up the baton?

There must always be one, I guess.

That`s a weird Art Deco-meets-Batmobile retro mix

10 years? That’s nuts. Time flies. In all fairness, the AMG GT isn’t far off minus the lack of a classic grille and hood ornament.

 

[Design FIRST]

A good many elements of the 10 year old Maybach concept are evident on this new Vision Iconic concept:

Personally, I much prefer the Maybach. As exaggerated as the proportions may be. Of course, 10 years ago, it was very far from being stale.

Dare one say that the Vision Iconic is a "lazy effort" by Mr. Wagener ? Perhaps a sign that he may be aware that he could soon be on his way out ? Along with Mr. Källenius ?

I like both! They could make the Vision Iconic a limited run on in the Mythos sub brand and the Vision 6 as a Maybach Production model, one can be ICE (Iconic) as its suppose to hark back to the past and celebrate it and the other electric (6) future looking.

Lovely proportions. MB also has the GLB, nothing wrong with the GLA looking sportier.

It looks like it will have the CLA-type grille, only bigger.

 

[Design FIRST]

I've become apprehensive when viewing foiled M-B prototypes. I was really excited after seeing the first images of shrinkwrap foiled GLC EQs, anticipating something very eye-pleasing. But when the GLC EQ was recently officially presented, my impressions were immediately lukewarm at best. I suppose that the BMW NKL ix3 simply rained on its parade. For me anyway.

Next up will be the presentation of the MB.EA C-Class EQ sedan. Save some skepticism regarding the front grill shield, I'm more or less optimistic. And maybe my hopes are TOO high regarding the NKL i3 sedan, which I am genuinely exciting about. As for competition from Audi: I see no threats to M-B or BMW until the production Frascella design team A4 is presented. I'm quite optimistic about that car as well.

I actually prefer the Vision 6.

Mercedes is taking Halloween very seriously this year.
Let’s see if they can beat the CLA

Proportions are really nice like @SKY said, so it's already better than the CLA in that sense. Front will be a shame though. CLA and GLA really need a quick facelift with the GLC style grille, or even better that concept's new grille.

I believe MB has probably put the new grille on everything that is about to come to the market. I mean, how not to? The CLA front end style looks stupid af.
