Mercedes interiors have always been sub par in a haute sort of way… but the driving experience was classy, and the status symbol was there (“best or nothing”). Now they’ve retained that for GLS, maybe GLE, G wagon, new SL, EQS… but they’ve gone sporty for most of their coupe and sedan range … which is incongruous… now they’re axing most of those options to go up-market. Their poor quality in the electronics department combined with some overzealous product management has resulted in a hideous interior… so you have various length bars of melting soap plus a hideous and unmanageable set of tech… and a sporty vibe for clients that want luxury… it’s all quite confusing.
