INNOVATION
With every year, an S-Class represents not just the pinnacle of the automobile but the forefront. It's thoughtful of its passengers. Keenly in tune with its driver. Highly protective of those within or even near its elegant presence. Everything that matters most to you, matters more than ever to the S-Class.
More evolved. Keeps evolving
The Mercedes-Benz User Experience (MBUX) is intuitive and intelligent, and grows even smarter over time. An advanced multiscreen, multitouch digital cockpit can recognize your fingerprint and respond to your natural voice.
Recognizes you. Remembers your likes
A 12.8-inch Organic LED (OLED) touchscreen is the centerpiece of up to five screens that can share content or entertain individually. You can personalize 800 settings, in the car or from your phone, in up to seven user profiles. Disclaimer[5] Disclaimer[6]
Front air bags. Even in back
A perennial pioneer in occupant protection, the S-Class looks out for its own with its advancements in safety. Among them, there's an air bag between the driver and front passenger. And the benefits of front air bags can also be extended to the rear cabin. Disclaimer[7] Disclaimer[8] Disclaimer[9]
Easier in here. Safer out there
An advanced suite of driver assists is standard. Systems and sensors network, look ahead and into adjacent lanes, and tap into GPS and real-time data to sharpen anticipation, quicken reaction, and adapt more smoothly. Disclaimer[10]
DESIGN
Signature details, majestic proportions and a windswept sportiness unite in a line of sedans that's undeniably modern yet unmistakably an S-Class. The gleaming Star stands proud above the iconic grille, a beacon of inspiration for all cars to follow.
Thousands of stitches, seamless result
Finely tailored leathers and exotic wood and metal trim envelop fresh technology in an unfading dedication to craftsmanship and detail. From switches to speakers, stitchwork to sculpting, every element creates a harmony of form and function.
In the background, in the moment
You can select, pair and sequence the 64-color ambient lighting to match your mood of the moment, or to help you set an entirely new one. Available active features can offer driving alerts, or warn passengers if they start to open a door while a vehicle is approaching. Disclaimer[11]
Fill the air, feel the sound
Standard Burmester® 3D Surround Sound offers immersive, personalized audio. A High-End 4D option integrates resonators into the seats for music you can feel. Ear-level speakers deliver driving information to the driver rather than the whole cabin. Disclaimer[12]
Distinctive lines, distinguished bloodlines
Standard S-Class styling includes crisp chrome accents and a choice of 19-inch or 20-inch wheel options. The elegantly aggressive AMG Line and black-accented Night Package offer AMG® wheels up to 20 inches. Disclaimer[13]
PERFORMANCE
Forward-thinking performance pairs turbo and electric boost for more than 400 hp in every model. And they can all precisely meter their torque to all four air-suspended wheels for year-round confidence.
Turbo torque, electric boost
An innovative hybrid Integrated Starter Generator can add torque electrically and make ECO Start/Stop even smoother. The S 500's new 442-hp inline-6 turbo is further boosted by an electric auxiliary compressor. Twin turbos help the S 580's V8 output 496 hp.
Plug-in power, hybrid freedom
The Plug-In Hybrid S 580e takes the turbo-gas/electric S-Class to the next level, with 503 total hp. An electric motor can take you up to 47 miles before needing the gas engine, and recharge at home in just a few hours. Standard DC fast charging can top it up to 80 percent in 20 minutes.

Tighter turns, smoother maneuvers
Available rear-axle steering can help ease parking and city maneuvers. At speed, the rear wheels can turn with the fronts for swifter lane changes, or adapt based on driving dynamics for more stable handling. Depending on wheel fitment, a 4.5° or 10° system is available.
Moving modes, for changing moods
Effortless or engaging, as you wish: DYNAMIC SELECT drive modes let you dial in performance with a few taps. The 9-speed transmission, suspension and more sharpen in Sport mode, ease up in ECO, or you can set up a mode of your own.
Level-headed, surefooted
Standard 4MATIC® all-wheel drive sends torque to the tires that can best turn traction into action, from winter's wrath to tight turns. AIRMATIC® air suspension can adapt at each wheel to optimize agility and poise. Available E-ACTIVE BODY CONTROL can watch the road ahead and respond in milliseconds. Disclaimer[17] Disclaimer[18]
