"which is expected to be shorter than the current generation" in my opinion it LOOKS bigger; especially longer

C'om on Mercedes! How much can you copy Audi?!? BMW has it's angel eyes and kidney grill, Audi has it's LED headlights and singleframe grill....you had to bring something new! Mercedes has no design signature!

i dunno, i'd say the hood ornament they put on their saloon cars is a design signature. who else uses hood ornaments nowadays?

He's got a point. Everything that's coming out of Merc/Audi has LEDs plastered all over them, but then Audi did come out with them first. It's just funny how BMW seems reluctant to use LED DRLs (besides the angel eyes or whatever they're called) when every other car company seems to throw them on these days.
Mercedes seems to have their design signature in the car as a whole. The sweeping character line, pointed grille, and very importantly a coherence that BMW and the likes seem to lack. I love Mercedes' designs. Simple, bold and elegant, except I just think the front of the W221 S class is just horrid...and that R class...

@sub39h : Jaguar used hood ornaments...and also Rolls Royce ;) and you can't call a hood ornament a design signature. And belive me, i don't fell joy saying that about Mercedes...I used to be Mercedes's Nr. 1 fan. Now i like Bimmers and Audi more...the only Merc i still love is the G-class

So far it looks good, I'm actually excited for this one, the current gen was way to soccer mom-ish but I like it. This one will hopefully add more sport, and the interior looks like it could be good, hopefully finally a good application of the boxy style.
As for the LED's, even as a die-hard Benz fan, its an Audi copy... but going to design signature Merc doesn't design cars to one "face" it gets boring in my opinion, not to attack Audi fans... but you can always tell that a Merc is a Merc from miles away.
