I'm sure its a wonderful car but looks so generic. I miss the days when not every car had the same shape.

@Ganiscol 3 года назад

Like was said at the beginning, for aerodynamic efficiency, there is not a whole lot of options. If that gets more mileage, its a good decision... Though, it reminds me of various Citroën cars of the past. 🤭

I still don't get how touchscreens in cars are even legal . You get into trouble for texting while driving - and rightly so - but you can fiddle with your massage seat settings and organize your playlist at a 150 mph, no problem there . I assume some functions are disabled at speed, but still there's a lot to play with in any touch screen based interface .

Yeah, the Mercedes designers worked hard for years to create the most efficient blob of a car :))). If you cover the emblem it could be anything, it could be a Kia. And the interior, I'm sorry but an interior for this type of car should scream prestige, but prestige and luxury these days means more Leds, more displays and more graphics. Pathetic.

@Dany_23L 3 года назад

..and in the trunk was a map of Germany when Poland, Austria, and a bunch of other coutries were Germany. A manifesto found detailed plans to take over Palestine using two horses. One with Hitler (Jewish/Polish heritage ;p ) destined to fail (ended up in Argentina with other Jewish Nazi's, it is what it is), so false compassion would get a bunch of Germans from the state of Poland into the (greater) Syrian motherland, Palestine. Make no mistake, that's real history. Had Lebanon not been separated from Syria, courtesy of the French, Syria would have 2 major capitals in Beirut and Demascus, like California and New York. Fyi Tabouli and Hommus isn't German/Polish/Jewish. - Protocols of the elders of Zion. Good read, even though they (Israeli's) say it's plagiarised, it's transcribed actually. Big difference. One gets the orginal text's information across to the public, the other makes no difference unless you're submitting an assignment. Excuse the non-twitter long-form explanation.

@RothBeyondTheGrave 2 года назад

It's an EV, that's how. Notice how Jay says, "cuz this doesn't open" (tapping the hood) and the designer smirks. The hood obviously does open, but Benz attempts to lock you out (hiding the hood latch behind a trap door secured w/ a few torx screws). "Hey Mercedes" literally tells you "only a qualified blah blah blah is authorized to open the hood. EV's mean the end of all diy, most indy shops, & car ownership. Everything will be rented (leased), & dealer serviceable only. The used market will be nonexistent. They won't only be astronomical to maintain once every electric feature & module fail & need replacement, but you'll never own one or pay one off. There's many ways they can go about this. The future of driving is bleak.

@ExclamationMarx Год назад

@@RothBeyondTheGrave That's just not true. EVs aren't the root of all evil. Cars regardless of their powertrain have been getting less repairable over time. It is a big problem but it's not because of or specific to electric cars. How does it mean the end of DIY either? The car that the Tesla Roadster was inspired by (The T zero) was an electric conversion of a kit car built by one man. Not to mention all of the electric conversions of classic cars to keep them on the road despite an aging engine & higher than acceptable emissions

@petersu5364 3 года назад

@OMGWTFLOLSMH 3 года назад

Pretty sure that was the point. It's the S-Class of their EQ brand.

@retardray5701 3 года назад

Wouldn't make sense to make another model that also looks like an S-Class, especially if it has a completely different architecture underneath. The EQS is a car for a more pragmatic buyer - function over style. Think of it this way: they made a separate electric model, so the new S-Class can still be a traditional luxury limo for one more generation. The EQ range is clearly meant for this transition period, you can bet there's going to be tons or research about what different Mercedes buyers think of the EQS.

Your comment makes no sense, the drag coefficient (CD) says it all with respect to aerodynamic drag. A CD of 0.20 is impressive for any car regardless of size. It could be lowered even more if the U.S. allowed replacing the exterior rear view mirrors with cameras feeding interior screens.

@stasiekpiekarski 3 года назад

@@avsystem3142 Firstly, it is a fact not an opinion so making no sense is not applicable. Secondly, envoking a specific number may suggest that the car is efficient or eco-friendly. I haven't said that getting low cd is not an engineering achivement. However, it is not a goal in itself but rather a way of getting lower energy consumption. Low cd is necessary but not sufficient. There are four main factors behind the drag forces: Cd and frontal area for aerodynamic drag and mass plus rolling resistance coefficient for rolling drag. To put it into perspective, a brick has lower aerodynic drag than this car due to low frontal area. Speaking of aerodynamic losses, splitting cd from the area is a common practice but it just darkes the picture and is just a marketing activity. The last sentence contains an opinion which you may agree with or not. Don't dispute facts.

@doncorleaaron 3 года назад

@@stasiekpiekarski is somewhat right about drag coefficient can be mis conceiving when comparing the overall drag between vehicles. Since CD is determined by the vehicle's frontal area it might be more preferable to use 'drag-area' CdA which disregard the frontal area and makes comparison easier. One simple example on how CD can be misinterpreted is by comparing spheres. A sphere has CD = 0.47 for a specific speed (or Re = 10^4). But if you compare two identical spheres, one with diameter of 1m and the other 2m, these spheres will have identical drag coefficients but completely different drag force values at the same speed. The same can be said for vehicles, the Tesla model S has CD = 0.24 and the Toyota prius CD = 0.26, but both cars will still have roughly the same drag since the frontal area of the prius is smaller than the Teslas. This is also due to both cars having the same drag-area of CdA = 0.58m^2. Hence, CD can be said to be a bit of a misleading marketing scheme manufacturers use, if they want to be consitent and compare the true aerodynamic drag with other vehicles they should use CdA instead!

The interior is beautiful. The exterior needs some work. Why can't they make the exterior like the regular S class. Then I would be very impressed. Give me the looks of the S580 as a electric car then I would be very happy.
