谍照记者最近又一次拍到了奔驰S级改款车，但与前几次不同的是，这次拍到的车辆更像量产版车型。新车的变化包括车头的改款前大灯，它采用了新的造型，另外还有新的LED日间行驶灯。保险杠下半部分也进行了改款，但被黑色的胶带所掩盖。车尾也有所改变，LED尾灯组采用了新的设计，而车身同色伪装表明后保险杠也有所改变。整体来看，S级外观上的改变很细微，而车厢内的升级也不会很大。从先前拍到的内装照片看，新车内部配备三辐方向盘，最明显变化是仪表板。两个12.3英寸数字显示屏之间的按键被拿掉了，让人感觉整个仪表板都融合在了一起。新车动力系统变化目前还知之甚少，但据传E级车明年将搭载一系列新的直列六缸汽油和柴油引擎，因此这些引擎也将出现在S级车型上。目前奔驰还未透露S级改款车发布时间，但预计将在明年一月北美车展或三月日内瓦车展亮相。

 

2018 Mercedes S-Class facelift spied with several changes

The facelifted S-Class has been spotted several times in recent months, but this time around the prototype is a bit more interesting as it has more of the production parts. The changes will start at the front where the fullsize posh sedan will host tweaked headlights with different graphics and a new LED daytime running lights signature. The lower half of the bumper has also been modified, but the changes remain hidden underneath the black camouflage tape.

 

Moving at the back, it’s a similar story. The LED taillights are also sporting a new design and the body-colored disguise indicates some changes to the bumper are also in tow for the new model year. Overall, the cosmetic surgery for Mercedes’ flagship model will be minor, as will be the updates inside the lavish cabin.

 

While the latest spy images are not providing us with a clear view of the interior, the above pics from earlier this year have uncovered the novelties, including a three-spoke steering wheel. By far the most significant change will be noticeable in the dashboard where the buttons between the dual 12.3-inch digital displays will be removed to give the instrument cluster a more cohesive look.

 

Details about engine changes are scarce at this point, but the E-Class is rumored to receive a new family of inline-six gasoline and diesel units in 2017, so it would make sense for the “S” to get them as well.
