For me, the headlights were a let down. It’s frustrating that they facelifted the GLE to have the double eyebrow drls, to then remove it from the e class, or at least made it less prominent.

You are so right, that's exactly what I was thinking. I liked the idea of giving the "E" line a reasonable distinctive feature, but they just ruined it making it less remarkable

The W212 facelift had a strong character while also looking super classy and elegant with its more squared off but rounded edges.

The rear of the 2021 E-Class is looking very similar to a modern Japanese sedan and your retro-redesign made it more like an E39 5-series. Not criticizing either designs (and I love seeing you doing your magic, that's why I'm here), just my perspectives and opinions. Keep up the good work!!!

True tho I thought the taillight is like some Japanese sedan...

I feel the rear end of the new Mercedes E class brings back some of the classical proportions. I really like it and feel it fits bether into the family tree. My grandfather has a 2012 Mercedes E350 and I felt that the last E class didn’t look like had been developed from the past cars in the class, this new on I can really see the luxuries lines and slopes of the back that make me think: this is definitely a Mercedes.

Nice touch, but when you were changing the shape of the back lights cluster, it reminded me more to a 5-series of the 00's...

With that change, you absolutely perfected the car. Good taste and well done

A long time BMW owner I recently bought my first Mercedes (C43 sedan) and I love the way the taillights drip over the back corners of the car. If Mercedes give the C class the same horizontal taillights of the E class Then this will be my first and LAST Mercedes. Your tailights were much much better.

Which Sketching Software are you using?

What did you think about the new PEUGEOT 508 ?

Im getting saab 9-5 vibes from the revision ot the rear end

Nice job on the taillights

Next month my lease is up on my 2018 E class. I have decided to buy it cuz the new one is BOO BOO... They should hire you for the redesign. Love what you did to the headlight. May I suggest you do photoshop a vintage model and display it. I bet it would look awesome..

New design is much, much better than the previous one. I kinda wish that they will come back with twin headlights someday as it was pretty unique and that one element made e-class stand out from other mid class sedans. Maybe you can do a front end redesign to show everyone how it would look like in your perspective?

Btw Sketch Monkey, have you discussed the Peugeot e-legend? Incredible design.

Hi , am Jeffrey just got my E300e today , love it .

agreed with you on the new GLE. The way it sits, proportions, fender bulges/flares and the more level hood to a more masculine broad shouldered look really did wonders for it. I was never a fan of GLE/ML designs prior to the current one and if you look at all of them lined up it's not like the new one is vastly different in it's design components/themes but in execution it is far better than previous iterations.

It looks like a modernised E-class W212, I love it!

I am thinking what manufactures designing studios or designers think after watching your videos when you make changes to there fresh car designs .

I like what you did with the tail lights 👍 I think they do that to attempt to visually widen the rear of the car, and it may not be as successful as they would like. (I think it also makes the rear look very similar to what everyone else is doing). You are right, your change does make the whole rear seem more like one piece (almost like a modern version of a kamm back) . Thanks!

Can you redesign the front, back, and the interior of a 2nd Generation 1999 to 2003 Ford Windstar minivan on the next video?

I thought you were also gonna do a retro redesign sorta improvement thing on the front was looking forward to it, video ended too soon man

The square redesigned taillights looks like a retro throw back to the 90’s era of merc luxury sedans

I’ve just changed a 2017 model e class for the 2021 model. I absolutely love it.

TSM, agree with you. I think though that the actual MB design language works generally its best in the upper ranges from E-Klass and up that down the range.

Why does the back of the redesigned version looks like the old 7 series to me

Hey! by any chance would you be able to redesign the disgusting looking new BMW 1 series? Would highly appreciate it!

So glad I still have my 2014 e coupe

The new E-class is just something you understand when you own it. It’s a hilarious car and the closer you look the more love you’ll recognize they put in every detail. Awesome car the E-Class 2021❤

Honestly the rear is the only issue for the “MB identification” like the front, overall I dont mind it.

The back looks like the last gen which looked like old Hyundai Sonata tail lights. A moderate step back imo

True. The Backlights should not squint. They should look bold and strong.

Nicely done - tasteful and retro. Now do the front. I hate the jelly bean headlights!

i like the new design. mercedes always had some weird lines and headlight/taillight shapes in the past. i like how simple this is.

I really liked the W212. Especially the rear and rear shoulder line

Please also make a redesign of the front and please show us different angles of this redesign

Love the tiny airbag steering wheel.

Can you pls analyse the design from the new Mercedes E Coupe 2021. Like your videos :)

SketchMonkey has made some great design tweaks.

Maserati Quattroporte rear why?

Do a resesign of a VW golf 8

the e class has always been a pretty huge car, this new styling makes it look slimmer than it actually is. Almost like a C-Class. Id love the styling to underline the imposing size of the car a little bit more, like the w124 or w210 for example.

Hey TheSketchMonkey! next video Ford Explorer 2020! thanks

Did I hear right? 2 liter 4-cylinder E53 ??

Please talk about Alfa romeo Mito design

8:03 so by solving the 'problem' you just decided not to sell e class in the USA anymore? because those lights in that small surface area cant pass the regulations. there is a reason why car brands don't let their designers to run wild. you did the same in the Ferrari video too and the result was a mix of a racecar bed and bathtub and don't forget by making the front sharper you violated another regulation(this time pedestrian) especially for the NA market. to be fair for the most of the time I agree with what you are saying and even coming from but in practice your answers to these 'problems' not really solving issues and creating new ones, costly ones. maybe I'm missing another point in your videos but by watching few ones this was the first impression I've got.

please if you can redesign the CLK 209 PLEASEEEEE

6:05 I think we have about the same age and my theory is, that this "box-like" Mercedes' feel like the most Mercedes Benz is simply because they were the most common on the streets when we first recognized the different cars and car companies when we were kids.

Love your redesign. Has a Bentley vibe

You should look at the 2021 genesis g80 next and maybe compare it to the e class

I like this new facelift better than the original 5th gen, but my modern favourite is still the 2013 facelifted 4th gen, it has some sharper bodylines, and is a bit boxier. Most current Mercs are too round and "melted cheese". This focus on more horizontal lights/graphical elements for the new 2020/2021 models is an improvement, but not a big step away from this roundness. Unfortunately, your redesign doesn't really help this, and doesn't remind me of an old E-class either. Props for giving it a go!

2020 exterior with a 2021 interior would be amazing

I am very happy with my decision to buy my E-class coupe instead of waiting for the new model. I think the front and back are better looking than the new model. The interior of the new model is definitely an improvement except for the aircon vents. The outgoing models have the gorgeous turbine aircon vents and I really couldn’t understand why they were replaced with the bland horizontal vents in the new E-models. What a pity.

Personally, I absolutely LOVED the w212 facelift with the lighting package ESPECIALLY with the V8 (E550)! That was the last true E class in my opinion! It didn't look like a big C class or a small S class! It had a look all it's own and will be missed! 😔

Your retro design looks the part, but times have changed and I like the new design a tide better. I don't know they won't hire you for their next design?

Nothing beats the classic w212

Do the front aswell plz tho it's impossible still deserves a try

It looks too much like a Aclass on the front .. dont u tnk. The previous one was way better to me.

It looks like a more rounder version of the W212 Pre-facelift - production year of 2009 to 2012.
