2014 Mercedes S-Class First Official Photo Released

Mercedes just released the first official photo of its 2014 S-Class sedan ahead of the May 15 world premier… Accidentally.

The German brand posted the picture on its mobile Austrian consumer site and has since removed it. A larger grille and teardrop-shaped headlights are the biggest visible changes.

While the photo doesn’t make this explicitly clear, this could be the AMG model or at least a version of the S-Class with a sport package given its aggressive front fascia.

The S-Class will share a similar, albeit longer, body shape with the new CLA-Class when it arrives. Despite seeming to share styling cues with the new E-Class, most of the key aesthetic changes will take place in the cabin. Full interior photos are also still unavailable, leaked photos last month offered a teaser of what to expect.
