The Mercedes F 700 which went on display at the 2007 Frankfurt Motor Show was a concept for a future luxury touring sedan which combined high levels of environmental friendliness, good performance and low fuel consumption.

The styling of the Mercedes F 700 comes from the Mercedes-Benz Advanced Design Studio in Irvine, California. Here the designers looked to nature for influences when designing the F 700 concept. "Aqua Dynamic" is what the designers term this design idiom. A direct connection to this design theme is the "back fin" which appears on the roof; it is used for antennas, the reversing camera and the third brake light.

The side view of the Mercedes F 700 concept is defined by highly tense curves. This is true of the roof contour, but especially of the concise shoulder line: it starts out by continuing the line created by the front wheel arch a short way, and then carries over in a sweeping curve to the rear end.

The distinctive front arches of the F 700 are similar to those of the current S-Class. But with the F 700 the theme has been taken further and the fenders have been distinctly sculpted. The door handles are recessed and the exterior mirrors highly stylized. The large 21-inch wheels of the F 700 are designed to imitate turbine blades.

The Mercedes F 700 concept is the first car that can recognize the condition of the road ahead and level out the uneven spots with its active PRE-SCAN suspension, improving suspension comfort substantially. The F 700 also sets standards in regard to road roar and tire vibration. With two laser scanners the active PRE-SCAN suspension scans the roadway in front of the car. The hydraulically controlled active suspension compensates for detected road problems, such as potholes or small bumps, enabling a further improvement in comfort.

Inside the Mercedes F 700 concept features a versatile seating arrangement. The REVERSE seat is a completely new design thought out for the right rear seat, permitting individual seat positions both facing the direction of travel and in the opposite direction. At the push of a button the innovative seat swivels in the opposite direction. From here the occupant can hold a confidential chat face to face with someone on the left rear seat. They can work, enjoy the entertainment system or simply take a rest. Owing to the REVERSE seat’s variability, the F 700 sedan affords entirely new freedoms for traveling in complete ease.
