That rear is terrible.
Those fogs are terrible.
The interior is terrible.

I hope these are renderings.

All I can say is that it looks quite similar to previous renderings ...

Looks terrible from the pics, interior is awful. The current E class looks much better inside and out. Maybe that will change once some better pics are available or you see it in person.

That's terrible. I really love the current E-class.

I guess the 5 series is getting a boost in sales next year.

As a taxi it will do well in Europe. I wouldn't buy one with my own money though.

I think MB are having problem designing their cars' rear. Look at how ugly the new c-class rear! and now here comes the Hyundai-ish rear. omg!

Someone took a C class, enlarged and lengthened it and made some digital modifications to the design. Sorry, but to me this looks like a photoshop and not like the real thing. Notice how in the dead center front shot the outer headlights look normal while in the 3/4 side profile shot they don't. Photoshop, I am almost positive.

Design is always a subjective feature. Personally I think these rear lights, photoshop or not, seem to be an evolution of past E class rear lights.

I guess I was wrong. Did some googling and found these on a Benz forum.
