Sporty, cultivated elegance and a green
drive system. The ve-seat F 800 Style
interprets responsibility and fascination
in a surprising new way – it brings
efciency and elegance into harmony.
The F 800 Style shows our perspectives
for the premium sedan of the future.

“The exciting coupe-type emphasis
of the roof line and the balanced pro-
portions create a sporty and powerful
image which is a further development
of the Mercedes-Benz shape and
underscores the car’s dynamic character.
The F 800 Style has a fascinating
combination of elegance and efciency
and communicates both style and
assertiveness.”

Bionic structures in the interior – the design underscores the
innovative lightweight construction methods used in the vehicle.
Fingertip control – in both the installation
and the later use of the Cam-Touch-Pad HMI.
