The most noticeable thing on the car is the lack of the usually prominent Mercedes Tri-Star logo on the grille.
Are they ashamed of the car and need to distance themselves?
It looks very bland, unremarkable, and anonymous from the outside, no different looking from other large bland unremarkable looking sedans.... but I guess they (Merc) have the AMG variants to fill that void.

I just thought it an omission of what has become so associated from pretty much every other Mercedes vehicle launched in recent years.

Edit: comment made after viewing pic on a phone. Looking on a larger screen shows a very small raised bonnet emblem. Still a departure from the norm unless I just dont look at Mercs closely enough these days
