Seriously, how can a premium brand like Mercedes green lit such a garbage ass cockpit? You pay 2000 - 3000 bucks for a navigation system and it looks like someone placed a Tom Tom for 150 in there.
Audi did the same with the new A4

I absolutely hate high-gloss plastic in car interiors, but at least this looks like an expensive car.
>>14994017
This is just generic as fuck. And wouldn't that display catch glare like crazy?
I wish car manufacturers would just put phone/tablet holders (or empty space where you can rig your own) on the dash.
>>14994190

>>14994330
Keep telling yourself that, if you dream hard enough it might come true
>>14994346
With moderate mechanical knowledge, anyone looking under the hood of a new mercedes can make a number of observations of poor design quality
>>14994360
Ah yes the smug anime face, the argument to refute all arguments

desu i thought that was an frs interior with ricer shit on the dash

That's barely a Mercedes m8. New C-class and new A4 interior quality is really good. I agree about the tablet design though.
>>14994167
Everything looks incredible to me except for that damn high gloss black plastic or whatever it is. I get what they're going for with the lines but WHY when you can just get a nice colored wood instead??
>>14994360

I don't understand this shitty mouse control thing MB is doing for the digital controls. It's not just MB, its a good portion of the luxury brands. But I just don't get it. How the hell does that have any benefit over touch screen?
The goys will take what is given to them.
>>14995578
>How the hell does that have any benefit over touch screen?
Have you ever had a touchscreen-based system?
You'll learn pretty quick why sticking your arm up and having to focus on pressing a tiny 3mm spot on a tiny 7" screen is shit compared to a central controller in the center console.

>>14997542
What. The s2k also has a radio, right infront of the shifter under that s2k thing
This thread only reaffirms my hate for massive touchscreen displays in cars.
They clash so much with the classic interior and are completely unnecessary for so many casual drivers. Plus they're distracting af.

Because a CLA is as much of a Mercedes as a Cayenne is a Porsche

Don't project your poorness on me. You or Mercedes can call it whatever you want, doesn't change the fact that it looks cheap.

There's reason for that. But how is that a problem for you?
I'm also not a fan of digital clusters but that Volvo (V60) still is one of the best looking new cars. Also it was the only one you disliked from those which I posted.
>>15003652

>>15003714
there are people who think leather is a luxury and not standard fare
>>15003691
thats the thing with degeneracy, people who are straight in the head and not fucking nuts enjoy clear lines and a thought over design, like this here >>15003652
complete degenerates have a complete clusterfuck-mess in their head, and just like that, they also like their interiour, like this retarded crap here >>14994167
since people in gerneral get more and more fucking retarded, the cars also get uglier and uglier by year.
pic related, a real fucking car.
>>15003714
Pontiac says I don't.
This was a factory option on the Pontiac Sunfire. It's a shit interior, but it's better to look at than OP's black and white photo
>>15003724
Have you noticed that clusters also are buried? Stuff that is supposed to be visible for eye and is placed on top has to be protected by shadow. Flat screens usually are placed lower on the panel. Yes, the flat ones will look better but it will be a bigger eye movement distance from the road and Volvos are supposed to be cars for practical people.
>>15003737
Harsh but it makes sense. I'm respecting the fact that people have different tastes and I'm not attacking stuff only because I dislike it. But when someone calls me a sad tasteless poor only because I'm saying that I don't find most of these modern designs appealing, man, you know that you aren't dealing with a wise person.
>>15003765

>>14994167
Looks awesome but it's honestly a little too baroque and overly laid out. I much prefer how BMW is heading. The interior on the new 7er is still austere but pops out at you at the same time. I don't think BMW is up with materials quality with Mercedes but I enjoy the overall look of their interiors more.
>>14994017

>>15012304
>>15012348
And doesn't it look better than most of the actual American car interiors of its time and class?
i'm a mercedes fan boy but even i cant push myself to blow a ton of cash on a car with a shit plastic dash board and no wood trim finished steering wheel
wtf
so to have an interior that is actually nice you need to buy a 200K car
lol
>>15012437
Guess what, a nice interior isn't a basic human right, and high quality materials don't grow on trees.
>>15012437

>>15012466
i'd like that interior in an e class coupe
i think s class look like crap exterior wise and way too big

>>15012502
To replace stuff with a flat screen looks like a cheap solution. I'm always thinking about the fact that new cars won't age as good as today's old cars. How will those screens look after 20 years? Will people be like ''Oh, look at those low res screens! That's a classic!''?
>>15012708
People seem to think so with those old LED displays from the 80s
>>15012725
It was an experimental phase. It is what it is and they didn't outdated because they were replaced with more advanced LED displays. But the thing with screens is that there always be something much better after 5 years.
>>15012848
I think that Porsche right now are the best at replacing stuff with screens.

Because the way they designed the system. It was primarily thought for the S class, which doesn't have any analog components. It was then just a matter of trickling it down and simplifying it while cutting costs for the lower models.

Yes, that's what practicality means. The comfort and durability are also features of a practical car. And that's the Swedish standard. Škoda is a budget car. A cheaper version of a VW.

You know what's the worst thing about these interiors? There are designed in a way that if you decide to mod it you'll end up with a fucking mess.
