Mercedes says that the next S-Class will represent the state of the art and will be a symbol for the brand. It design will show the new direction for Mercedes automotive design. 

"The characteristic lines of the S-Class have always represented the expression of automotive culture, as we understand it. The new S-Class will continue this tradition and, with its striking lines, will put a face to our design philosophy over the coming years", explains Gorden Wagener, Head of Design at Mercedes-Benz Cars.

At the Paris Motor Show, the sculpture will be shown with a projection display that will reflect light off of the sculpture to show the future car's shape. It will also project images of past S-Class models. 

"The Mercedes-Benz S-Class has always impressed with its timeless design, which has existed for decades and has always pointed the way ahead," said Wagener.
