I'm only liking and commenting to support you guys, because this vehicle brings together everything I hate the most.

[cayman]

I hate screens and intense tech pushed at you.. give me simple analog looking clean design. Porsche has it down, this is going to get tired soon. Plus this car just looks so average.

man if u guys could get a lucid id love to see it! keep it up!

Every MB vehicle used to have exposed door handles that could be gripped and hooked for easier opening, especially after a crash. Maybe the door handles on this car are programmed to pop out when an airbag deploys, but this is certainly not a "safety first" design.

Seems like regular car makers have drastically improved and become far more luxurious whereas “luxury “ makes haven’t been improving. Certain basic features should be a minimum to have a brand classified as luxury.

Who is buying this car but isn’t sitting in front of screens all day? I would HATE this.
I’d like to meet someone who finds this car appealing.

You can ask the car to make adjustments, you don't have to touch the screen..

Mark = Negative Nelly. I own this car and LOVE it.

Saw this car the other day, and as mentioned in the video looks completely nondescript.

This car is Ann from Arrested Development.

Theres this nonsensical vibe that pervades a lot of these newer high-priced EVs, and cars in general.

[gentlebyte]

At least you get to pick this up dirt cheap in 10 years time. Just like the rest of the beta EV's.

[marianosagastegui]

With the $125K you can buy 2 RX350s well made vehicles with low headaches and hi resale value, stop the EV pieces of crap!!

[SantanKGhey]

As a previous owner of many C-class, GLK-class... now owning X166 GLS and '18 AMG GTC.... Im never buying a new Mercedes... dont care for all the screens.... this is just an expensive computer on wheels.... there is no reason for the price of this vehicle.... bye Merc 👋

[sewshiestrip]

You almost have to ask, are they intentionally sabotaging their own EV program? That's how bad these cars are.

[Mr-edep]

What a terrible sounding experience. RIP Mercedes
