Knowing that the E is Mercedes's favorite car, the facelift for the E has always been a preview to what the next gen S class would look like. I like this new look for the E but the back lights I'm not a fan of. I personally loved the last models crystal back lights and wished they'd maybe evolve them and stick with those instead.
They changed them because people were saying the pre face lift had a rounded feminine looking back. As soon as they make it aggressive, people complain.
CengizhanMilfhuntürk Its an AMG performance model, why would you have it looking elegant like if it was an sclass. You need the design to be aggressive in order to compete with other companies. I wouldn’t want a fast family sedan to look like a boat but rather something that has a mean presence on the road.

@@1990Thunderbolt I agree that they looked similar. But that more just elevated the presence of the C and E class, which may cannibalize the S class sales.

My opinion but after watching every car review channel on RUclips I think, this is the best one. Needs more subscribers I believe based on the quality here.
Ahmed Gafar yeah probably. It will be more like the GT63S I think. Large air intakes, massive quad rectangle tail pipes with aggressive rear diffuser, probably more muscular lines all round too. It’s going to be amazing 🔥
Wait until the new 63s release; then compare it with yours. 43 and 53 is just a standard version of AMG. Commented from a G63 owner and a E63s owner ( before the G63)
the lightning and everything on the stage makes the car super gorgeous. Mercedes and AMG really know what they’re doing. this is not a sarcasm, i literally love the car, especially the rear end, it’s just beautiful. speaking of design, it’s all personal preferences, maybe for some it looks good, and for some it looks bad.

When I change the rims and drive past ur house, you will love it 🙂.....on a serious note thou you right. It doesn't feel like it has its own identity. It's gonna fall in the same trap of mistaken it for another model. Example a class from the rear
Significant change of the headlights also is the reduction of the daytime light strips. It used to be one for C, two for E and three for S. Seems it’s now down to one for E as well.
1:40 "This car got a lot of stick for being so similar to the C class and the S class particularly in the rear" Yeah now it looks the same as the A class particularly in every aspect

The Beauty and elegance of the e class Always came from its simplicity, the facelift just doesnt Bring that to the table. Poeple hated the old one, for looking Like an c-class, Well thank you very much, now it Looks Like an a-class Sedan
Joshua September it looks like a big ball with the Mercedes logo slapped on in the middle, also from my experience haptic controls on a steering wheel never really work.
I have a 2018 E class. My lease is up at the end of the year... not to thrilled about this. Prefacelift was the most beautiful e class in my opinion. Maybe I’ll get a used one until they fix this mistake.
As much as I like the panamericana grill I think it looks best on the AMG GT and SUV models. I actually prefer the previous E face lift design better. The light bars in the headlights and taillights are iconic for 1, 2 and 3 lines to show the class. Now it just looks like it has CLA headlights. I think the 2 light bars in the taillights looked great and the C glass had it for a while strangely but now none of their cars have it.
the E63s will be amazing in this new shape, it’ll be one of the last good cars we will see in the E class shape since surely after a while they’ll be downsizing the engine sizes

The pre-facelift was just the most agressive elegant and beautiful E-Class
Right
Grill & Head-/Rear Lights are way more aggressive & sporty on this facelift
I agree
It certainly was one of the best
But tbh i find the W212 the most aggressive and elegant E class with those angry double headlights
@@wael5191 Yep double headlight + sharp lines and edges + hood ornament definitely the best especially when the C and S were going for the new sleek style.
It went from looking too much like a C and S Class, to looking like an A Class
MadXed exactly what I want to say!
@Conor it doesnt look a luxury car at all. Much more a class. They fucked up.
well they adapt the new design language, esp. with the headlights...
Before: Nice mid-sized S-class!
Now: Nice large-sized A-class!

Less elegant but more aggressive.
Less like a c class more like a glc and gle.
