INNOVATION
Every mountain range has its pinnacle. Every sport, its champion. Every breakthrough, its inventor. In the history of the automobile, one car makes history time and again, not just by raising the standard, but advancing it in ways you never imagined possible.
Anticipates the road ahead. And paves it for other cars.
Today's S-Class previews the future of driving. It can change lanes with a tap of your finger. Slow itself for a tollboth or exit. Turn a traffic jam into easy street. And watch out for danger ahead, even when it's coming from behind. Disclaimer[1] Disclaimer[2]
Beacon of inspiration. Beams of intelligence.
The car that pioneered 100% LED lighting throughout the vehicle adapts its brilliant active LED headlamps to curves and vehicles ahead of you. Their Ultra Wide Beam technology helps the high beams illuminate the roadsides better, too.
In tune with your desires. And your devices.
Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto expand your choices in entertainment and navigation. Their unique interfaces work like your phone because they integrate with it, even its voice controls. Wireless charging is also available, front and rear. Disclaimer[3] Disclaimer[4]
DESIGN
To set the benchmark for luxury sedans, the S-Class cabin is sculpted, sewn, appointed and equipped not just to provide unmatched comfort and convenience, but to stimulate and soothe your senses. Especially your sense of contentment.
The state of the art. For a new state of mind.
Industry-first ENERGIZING Comfort Control can rejuvenate your senses with a symphony of climate comfort, fragrance, massage, lighting and music. Enhanced ambient cabin lighting lets you choose from 64 colours in a variety of themes and zones. Disclaimer[5]
A wide world of information. In a panoramic panel.
Dual 12.3-inch widescreens are set side-by-side in a seamless floating frame. Each screen, a reconfigurable instrument panel and a central screen for entertainment, navigation and more, delivers a wealth of knowledge with instant clarity. Disclaimer[6]
Touch Control Buttons: "All thumbs" will never mean the same thing again.
Two smartphone-like pads access nearly all the car's features directly from the steering wheel. Scroll, swipe and select from the central screen with your right thumb, and the screen between the gauges with your left.
PERFORMANCE
The S-Class is more than motivated, it's motivational. Biturbo powerplants raise efficiency, and your pulse. And its advanced, adaptive and highly adept chassis and drivetrains are engineered for an ideal balance of composure and confidence.
A pair of turbos, for singularly strong response.
Advanced engines respond with millisecond speed and molecular precision to keep performance and efficiency at their peak. A 362-hp 3.0L biturbo V6 powers the S 450 Sedans, while the S 560 models are roused by a 463-hp 4.0L biturbo V8.
Rides on air, corners more like it's on rails.
Standard AIRMATIC air suspension balances pure comfort with cornering precision. It can self-level for changing loads, adapt to challenging roads, and let you select modes to coddle your passengers or indulge your sporting desires.
Nine speeds, for a wider range of talents.
Swift, smooth and versatile, the 9G-TRONIC transmission offers quick takeoffs, quiet cruising, and seamless acceleration in between. Shift paddles on the steering wheel keep sporty control of its nine speeds at your fingertips.
Turns slip into grip, and grip into go.
Standard on every S 450 and S 560 Sedan, 4MATIC all-wheel drive continually sends torque to the wheels that can use it best. Lightweight, nimble and efficient, 4MATIC enhances handling and performance in any season. Disclaimer[7]
