Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class facelift reveals its face

MERCEDES-BENZ-CLS-FACELIFT

Mercedes-Benz has dropped some of the camo on their CLS-Class facelift prototypes being driven around Europe. In this single spyshot of the updated CLS-Class, the tape on the front bumper has been removed, revealing a better view of how the car will look like.

This particular car must be wearing an AMG Sport kit as the front bumper looks similiar to the AMG Sport bumper found on the E-Class (found on the E 400 in Malaysia). The revised front bumper is complemented by a reshaped grille, with a single bar running through the middle.

There are big changes to the interior as well, with the dashboard revised to use a floating tablet style COMAND display, which allows for larger screen sizes to be used. It looks like save for the W222 S-Class, Mercedes-Benz will be using this new style for the COMAND display for all of its new cars, including the facelifts, as we’ve seen this revision in spyshots of the M-Class SUV facelift as well.

  • Never liked the CLS at all! I think CLS is in the same category as Audi A7, BMW 6 series (4 doors) & Maserati Ghibli. I prefer the latter :), only if i could afford them :)

      The design is subjective to judge whether is nice or not.
      For me, i prefer the new design language on the benz rather than the BMW, then BMW “open eye” design where the front lamp that connect to the grille look ugly.

    The current CLS has rearlamp designed to look like a clown’s mouth, which is same thing that the Kia Cerato currently suffers from. It’s just destroyed the elegance of their sleek body.

    The current CLS is having the same syndrome that Kia Cerato is suffering from – Clown’s Mouth Rearlamp syndrome. They better fix this for facelift.
