Over the last few years, Mercedes-Benz design has experienced a remarkable turnaround. After the boxy and ungainly models of the Peter Pfeiffer era, Gorden Wagener has brought in a lot of talent—and the result is cars like the well-regarded new S-class coupe. The Concept IAA, which Daimler is teasing on social media today, presents the next opportunity to take a step forward. It will be unveiled at the Frankfurt auto show next week.

It’s touted as “an aerodynamics world champion and a four-door coupé with embodying irresistible design.” We see a bit of Audi A7 in the new concept’s silhouette—perhaps even a hint of the Alfa Romeo Alfetta GTV in its tail.

Far more than a mere styling exercise, the concept hints at the next-generation Mercedes-Benz CLS four-door coupe, which will be based on the upcoming new E-class. But there is still some time before we see the real thing: Whereas the E-class will bow at the Detroit auto show in January, the CLS will take significantly longer to arrive.

In the meantime, we look forward to seeing more of this concept next week.
