In premiering the Mercedes-Benz Concept S-Class Coupe at the
2013 Frankfurt Motor Show, the automaker suffered no shortage of superlatives
in describing what is expected to become the production S-Class Coupe. Within
just the first 200 words of the company's lengthy press release, the following
descriptors are used:
"Gorgeous"
"Spectacular"
"Truly exclusive"
"Defines the state of the art"
"Automotive masterpiece"
"A true design icon"
When the new S-Class Coupe arrives in showrooms, it will
replace the existing CL-Class Coupe as the range-topping grand coupe of the
lineup. According to Mercedes, the Concept S-Class Coupe's appearance revolves
around the automaker's current design philosophy of "sensual
clarity," which is rooted in what the company claims are core design
values of tradition, emotion, and progressivism.
