Yahoo Autos 2024 Mercedes-Benz E-Class interior revealed with new 'Superscreen'
Here’s the interior for the next-gen 2024 Mercedes-Benz E-Class. The new E-Class Sedan is scheduled to arrive in dealerships later this year, but today we get a preview of the new interior and dash design.
At first glance, this interior design is somewhat familiar, with the vast expanse of screens in a single module, but it’s not the Hyperscreen. Instead, Mercedes-Benz is calling it the Superscreen. Funny. It’s not the “Hyperscreen” because the big infotainment screen and passenger screen apparatus don’t also include the instrument cluster. Instead, the digital cluster is alone and freestanding vertically, unlike the angled other screens.
This triple-screen interior is not the only layout being made available for the new E-Class, though. It’s the optional upgrade setup, and the standard dash layout will include a free-standing screen in the center (with no passenger screen) that Mercedes says will appear “to float” above the trim laid below it. We don’t have any photos of it now, but wouldn’t be surprised if it ended up looking similar to what the S-Class’ dash looks like.
A small smattering of buttons is positioned below the Superscreen in photos, but say goodbye to all the tactile toggle switches and roller knobs present in the current E-Class. This new E is going digital. Like any all-new Mercedes-Benz product, this one is brimming with new digital toys to play with, too.
The big upgrade Mercedes is bragging about today is a new “Active Ambient Lighting” system. Mercedes developed software that will coordinate the ambient lighting in the cabin with the music being played over the audio system. For example, Mercedes says “fast sequences of beats can cause rapid light changes, while flowing rhythms can create softly merging lighting moods.” Of course, it can be turned off if you’d rather not be distracted by a literal disco party happening in the car. But hey, now you can leave the club and feel like you never really left on the drive home.
