Mercedes-Benz is launching a column dedicated to car design enthusiasts to explain the steps involved in creating some of the electric models in the EQ range. The video, shot in the central hall of the Mercedes-Benz style centre in Stuttgart, features Bastian Baudy, team leader for exterior design, and the Vision EQS, a concept car presented at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 2019 that anticipates the EQS, an electric flagship to be unveiled in the coming weeks.
The utmost expression of the “Sensual Purity” design philosophy, the EQS has no sharp edges and is defined by two lines: the roof line and the belt line that starts at the front and surrounds the electric flagship. The soft lines continue into the interior, which features nautically inspired finishes and materials and a wealth of technology. The standard EQS will be the German group’s first car to adopt the new Mbux Hyperscreen: the German electric flagship’s curved display will be the largest and most advanced in its category with 56 inches in size, 24 gigabytes of RAM and 2,432 square centimetres of area.
