Electric Mercedes GLC to debut new glowing grille in September
The Mercedes‑Benz chrome grille, the iconic feature with a shiny central star, is ready to evolve. For more than 100 years the grille has exhibited the prestige and status of the German brand, and it enters a new age through reduction, clean lines and technology debuting on the new electric GLC to be shown on September 7 at the IAA Mobility show in Munich, Germany. It features a wide and chromed frame, smoked-glass-effect lattice structure and integrated contour lighting. An illuminated version is available as an option, featuring 942 backlit dots and integrated with surrounding contour. The company said the new iteration with hi-tech pixel graphic is optionally available with animation. 'Our new iconic grille is not only a new front for the GLC, it redefines the face of our brand. It is the perfect fusion of lasting design codes reinterpreted for the future, making our cars instantly recognisable,' said Gorden Wagener, chief design officer at Mercedes‑Benz Group. The new GLC with EQ technology is also the first Mercedes-Benz model in a completely new family of vehicles featuring the new in-house operating system with high-performance artificial intelligence designed to adapt to diverse needs and lifestyles. An all-new, seamless MBUX Hyperscreen is another new development in the electric GLC.

'Screens Are Not Luxury' Mercedes-Benz Says It Must Do More To Elevate Its Interiors
Mercedes-Benz uses some of the biggest in-car screens in the world in several of its vehicles, but its design boss is now saying that isn't where true luxury lies. Gordon Wagener, the chief design officer at Mercedes, says luxury shouldn't revolve around the size of a car's infotainment screen. In a wide-spanning interview with ABC News, Wagener admitted that "screens are not luxury" despite MB's emphasis on its 56-inch triple-display in cars like the EQS sedan and SUV. Here's what else he said: You have a better -- and bigger -- TV at home, right? And every car has a big screen. So we have to create luxury beyond the screen. That's why I talk about craftsmanship and sophistication. There's so much emphasis on making [Mercedes] vehicles better. He added that the company doesn't have its flagship MBUX Hyperscreen in all cars right now, just a few, saying that the hardware is good but the software definitely needs work because "when you have a big screen, you want to have great content on it." He continued, saying that the automaker is working on content that is more specific and entertaining for passengers than what is currently offered. If you're screen agnostic – which you probably are since you read Jalopnik – this will certainly come as a bit of good news. Mercedes knows its screens and implementation needs work, but don't get too excited just yet. I cannot imagine they're going anywhere, especially as consumers because more and more tech-savvy. I know you want your knobs and buttons, but that's just not what you're going to find in flagship Mercedes vehicles. Read more: SEMA Was Full Of Wild Concepts In 2002 In some other disappointing news for some (including myself), when asked about artificial intelligence, Wagener said the German automaker is trying to implement it when designing cars. However, it does sound like it's very early days for the process, and the company is being careful. Here's more from ABC News: We work with AI now. You get 99% of crap with AI and sheer quantity. That's the biggest problem -- sorting out the good stuff from the bad. But you get 1% good stuff and we keep learning. It's getting better every day. AI will drastically change the way we design. I think in 10 years maybe most of design will be done by AI and it will make designers obsolete. My successor will be a machine and will be much cheaper than my salary [laughs]. BOOOOOOOOOOOO Anyway, you all know my stance on screens. They're really not as bad or distracting as you Luddites make them out to be. Is 56 inches worth of screens a bit excessive? Maybe, but that's just the way it is. At least automakers like Mercedes-Benz are trying to figure out ways to make them a bit nicer. Read the original article on Jalopnik.
