They are building global feedback for this proposal and so far the results are very,very good.

Ditto on interior and its not the quality of the materials, it's the layout that will lead me to believe the interior isn't taking a major step forward. For starters is the iDrive screen...ugghhh, same damn thing and location as the current 3. They need to start innovating because imo the average buyer of this car isn't going to get that excited that the car is 500lbs lighter than the previous generation.
*that above is hot and what it should look like, inside and out |

The new s class interior is about as ugly as 80s cadillacs. That car is and should be made for a different crowd/customer than a 7. No one under 60 should drive an s class. EVER!

That instrument cluster. Is very very similar to the "Vision Future Luxury" concept vehicle we saw few months ago. (Circular blades around the Speedometer and Rev meter)
And that "pulled out" center dash & air condition vents kinda represents the concept. There is a pretty good chance they might follow the concept. But we'll see... |

lol the new C-class has a better interior than this and its 1/3rd the price. whata joke. dont even get me started on the S-class. what happened to bmw? all their cars look like they were designed before 2009, even their latest ones.
oh and scott has been defending these type of pictures for a while now, but i promise you the "finished" result wont look much different at all. i remember when the 4 series was supposed to be "85% identical to the concept 4er" and, well, yea... |

The more comments , its ugly , its cheap when a car is in this stage of development only proves how stupid people are. The 4er was around 95% the concept , bar some concept car detailing it is exactly what is on the road today.

I understand this is a pre-production model, and I understand there is still work to be done. I also should emphasize that I am *not* an engineer or an automotive designer, so I am not qualified to state how much change can be allotted in the next year.
However, it is my personal opinion that whether its pre-production or not, judging by these pictures it does not appear the 7 series will have a groundbreaking interior. I do not see how there could be so much massive change within a year, especially since a car like this I imagine is built from the inside out. The customers in this segment don't care about weight savings or space age chassis refinements; they want toys, plush luxuries, and a sense of class. I really do hope the 7 series knocks it out of the ball park, because every previous generation I've preferred to the S class. All I can say with absolute certainty, is that BMW has a very difficult uphill battle to compete with Mercedes' flagship.

I agree with the overwhelming sentiments, new S-class has taken interior design to a new level.
Let's hope BMW is listening and that Scott spot on with this being sort of a 6er interior fitout for prototypes purposes. G11 needs to move things on from current design & aesthetics not just CFRP materials. The i8 gives some hope |
