The rear door look small. hahaha. Like not very comfortable for the back seat. 

This is a Compact Class,you don't expect S-Class Rear Legroom.[But the Selling Price of this Car in Singapore,can easily S450 in Germany].

Usually the car manufacturers will try to make their cars look better.

Not in this case. 

The proportion, the front and rear lights followed by the front...the rear.. omg fugly.

Agree the front likes ugly and side side profile is worse than current generation. Maybe they tried to make it more spacious and thus higher roofline. 

Back is like EQS etc.

Since 1st Gen, it is proportionally weird as compared to CLS

Weight is always an issue for EV, but for a car close to half a meter shorter than the standard wheelbase S Class, something is serious not right.

Yikes: The Mercedes CLA EV Is Heavier Than a Base S-Class (https://www.motor1.com/news/753506/electric-mercedes-cla-heavier-s-class/)

That awkward moment when the smallest sedan weighs more than the biggest.

The 2026 Mercedes-Benz CLA 350 4Matic with EQ Technology weighs 2,135 kilograms in European guise. That’s 4,706 pounds.

It weighs 143 pounds (65 kilograms) more than the standard-wheelbase, six-cylinder S450 4Matic sold in Europe. It’s also 100 pounds (45 kilograms) heavier than the equivalent long-wheelbase model. The stretched S-Class is 22.2 inches (56.6 centimeters) longer than the CLA. You could argue that we cherry-picked the CLA and S-Class versions to make our point. However, the fact remains that it’s highly unusual for a company’s smallest car to weigh more than its biggest.

It’s worth noting that published figures include a driver weighing 150 pounds (68 kilograms) and 15 pounds (7 kilograms) of luggage. For the S-Class, the measurements also account for a fuel tank filled to 90 percent capacity.

S class could have more alloy parts than CLA.
