One correction regarding the passenger screen: When the car detects the driver looking at the passenger screen, it DOES NOT turn off. It remains on, but only the passenger can continue to see the screen. It blocks the driver's view by making the screen black.

The term "nerd" should never be used as an insult or a way to belittle someone's intelligence or to socially isolate. Intelligence is a wonderful trait that should be celebrated, not mocked. People with a passion for knowledge and a thirst for understanding contribute immensely to our society. Let's focus on discussing the fantastic features of this executive car without resorting to offensive language. After all, intelligence and style go hand in hand, and this video should reflect that synergy.

Spent some proper time with it recently (estate version). It’s honestly brilliant. The design is a success, the interior is significantly refined compared to EQE, new S-class, GLC etc with less cheap feeling parts and the right amount of tech/screen. Doesn’t have the seats of the s-class but feels more solid inside. Hybrid powertrain is brilliant, so smooth and so seamless. Long EV range, charges fast. 4D audio system is brilliant. The 3D driver’s cluster is awesome, such a wow factor. Only real downsides are price (get’s massively expensive fast as you spec it up, almost porsche level!) and the loss of boot space with the hybrid.

Other than rear wheels tearing, the prior w213 did everything this does. The only new tech and design are gimmicks. No substance. The old model also had more architecture in the interior. As a current e-coupe owner, I think this is the best new MB model but not an upgrade in most regards. The new CLE is off the table because of the cheap C class interior. As such, I think the only viable option is this without the super screen to retain some decor.
