The reports reveal that this concept is the car of the generation as it offers amazing dynamic exterior design.

The electrically extended front and rear flaps help in boosting concept's length by 390 mm. Under the hood lies a 274 bhp petrol-electric plug-in power train that efficiently propels it to a top speed of 155 mph. In the most efficient mode, the CO2 emissions are claimed to be just 28 g/km with a 20 mile all-electric range.
The interior comes with a simple white colour theme. The dashboard is equipped with gesture control pads that allows the driver to control in-car functions by simply putting their finger above the pad. The company claims that the cabin design is a preview for its near-future cars.
According to Dr. Thomas Weber, Mercedes' head of R&D, the Concept IAA uses intelligent innovations and advanced technology to boost its performance and aesthetics. It also offers plenty of ideas that can be implemented on further improvements in efficiency and power.
