might suggest otherwise. Before we get into the styling, the concept’s real vision lies in the possibilities presented by AMG’s new EA.AMG platform for next generation models. With a short front overhang and relatively short bonnet, an elegant stretch of curved body and extended Kamm-style rear end, the signs are encouraging.
This is a sharp contrast to the current Mercedes EQS which has more of a single arch-like silhouette, or jelly-mould if you prefer, with a long wheelbase, short rear overhang and yet, oddly, a long dash to axle ratio. The Vision Concept’s aesthetic is actually more closely aligned to theMercedes showed off earlier this year, with a more defined bonnet and windscreen break.
Compared to the EQS, the AMG Vision sits much much lower to the ground in terms of ride height and cabin height, but also in terms of the relationship between the axle centre points and floor. We suspect that like most of these new-age EV platforms, the batteries will be laid in a flat bank under the cabin, with the corresponding pluses and minuses associated with that positioning.
As for the rest of the body, it’s typical modern Mercedes with a lack of hard lines and instead, rolling surfaces that pinch at the beltline. The haunches, both front and rear, are then almost organically grown from those masses, with a sharp technical lighting structure creating the leading edge of the Kamm-tail’s rear spoiler.
Other elements around the lower bodywork and wheels take a more technical approach, looking less organic and more F1-inspired in their design. Overall the sleek, elegant coupe is a definite change in direction and should portray what’s to come from AMG. We’ll have to wait and see if it makes a better fist of things the second time around.
How does this relate to the EQxx ?
