Mercedes-Benz S-ClassOverviewManufacturer(1972–1998)(1998–2007)(2007–present)Production1954–present (S-Class nomenclature adopted since 1972)Assembly, Germany, India, Thailand, Malaysia,Body and chassis4-door2-doorRelatedChronologyPredecessorThe Mercedes-Benz S-Class, formerly known as Sonderklasse (German for 'special class', abbreviated as 'S-Klasse'), is a series of and produced by the German automaker, a division of German company. The S-Class designation for top-of-the-line Mercedes-Benz models was officially introduced in 1972 with the, and has remained in use ever since.The S-Class has debuted many of the company's latest innovations, including drivetrain technologies, interior features, and safety systems (such as the first seatbelt ). The S-Class has ranked as the world's best-selling luxury sedan, and its latest generation, the W222 S-Class, premiered in 2013. As in previous iterations, the W222 S-Class is sold in standard and long-wheelbase versions;, and powertrains are offered. All models sold in North America are available in long wheelbase only.In automotive terms, Sonderklasse refers to 'a specially outfitted car.' Although used colloquially for decadesfollowing its official application in 1972, six generations of officially named S-Klasse sedans have been produced. Previous two-door coupe models of the S-Class were known as SEC and later S-Coupe.

In 1996 the S-Class coupe was spun off in a separate line as the, however as of June 2014, it has been re-designated as the for the 2015 model year, doing away with the CL-Class. In 2016, the S-Class Cabriolet, internally named A217, was introduced with three variants: the S 550 Cabriolet, the Mercedes-AMG S 63 Cabriolet with 4Matic, and the Mercedes-AMG S 65 Cabriolet. The Mercedes-Maybach S 650 Cabriolet, based on the S 65 Cabriolet, was announced in 2016.

From then on, the long-wheelbase models (formerly 'SEL') and the regular-length models (formerly 'SE') are both labeled with the prefix of 'S' regardless of length. For example, both 500SE and 500SEL are now labeled as S500/S500L, with fuel injection being standard on these models.

Mercedes-Benz S-Class / Mercedes-Benz S-Class Owners Manual / COMAND / System settings / Reset function You can reset COMAND to the factory settings. Amongst other things, this will delete all personal data (e.g. Station presets, address book entries, entries in the destination memory and in the list of previous destinations in the navigation.

The W221 S-Class has been available in four trim levels; the numbers are given in ascending order to denote more upscale models (e.g. S500 (S550 for US)/S600/S63 AMG/S65 AMG etc.). In official Mercedes-Benz publications and on vehicle nameplates, a space between the letter and numbers is customary (e.g. Mercedes-Benz 230S (Belgium)Mercedes Benz (: Heckflosse) is an informal nickname given to Mercedes Benz vehicles notable for the presence of tailfins. Though never officially designated as such - Mercedes-Benz claimed they were functional and designated them, assisting to mark the end of the car in the rear view mirror. The Fintail series replaced the Ponton series.The exterior was designed for the European and North American markets.

The W111 was a code given to its top-range vehicles, including four-door sedans, produced from 1959 to 1968, and two-door coupes and cabriolets from 1961 to 1971. The W111, was initially attributed only to six-cylinder cars with 2.2-litre engines. The luxury version with big-block 3-litre engines were given the chassis code W112. The entry-level vehicles with four-cylinder engines were called W110. All three versions W110, W111, and W112, in both two- and four-door bodies, were built on an identical chassis. Mercedes-Benz 280 SThe updated and larger / model lines were introduced in 1965.

The squarish W108 line included the M129 engine powered 250S, 250SE, 280S 280SE and 280SEL. In 1968 the borrowed the 6-litre V8 from the W100 600 Pullman to offer a truly high-performance luxury sedan.During this period, the designation S (for 'Sedan') was used for standard carburated short-wheelbase models; an E (for 'Einspritzung', German for fuel-injection) was added to the 250SE, 280SE and 300SE. Long-wheelbase models gained an L (for 'Lang', German for 'long'), reflecting an extra 10 centimetres (3.9 in) added in the rear passenger compartment. Since the advent of the W108 series, the Mercedes-Benz S-Class has always included two wheelbase lengths, although not all wheelbases are sold in every country.The more powerful 300SE and 300SEL models were classified as the W109 chassis, with front and rear air suspension (rather than the coil spring based W108 rear suspension), and available burl walnut interior trim, automatic transmission, and power windows. Late 1960s W108 lineIn 1968, the W108 line dropped the 250SE in favor of the larger-engined 280S and 280SEL; the 250S remained as an entry model until 1969; the 300SE/SEL yielded their 3.0 litre inline-6 for the intermediate SL type (W113) 2.8 litre engine, and were later offered with a 3.5-litre V8 engine (in both the SE and SEL form, not in the U.S.) and 4.5-litre (U.S. Only) and 6.3-litre V8 engines (in the SEL model only).

The W108/109 lines, which eventually supplanted the W111 lines, were never available with four-cylinder engines. Main article:In 1972, Mercedes-Benz introduced the line, the first to be officially called the S-Class. Produced from 1972 through 1980, the W116 series featured a four-wheel. The 280, 350, and 450 (4.5L version) models featured SE and SEL versions. Production of the W116 totaled 473,035 units. This was a groundbreaking sedan for Mercedes-Benz, and for the first time in the company history, the car had an obvious, blatant and outward emphasis on safety placed above a pure styling viewpoint. Large boxy rear lights of the 1970s W116, the first official 'S-Class' Engines With the W116 models, the V8-engines of the 350/450 SE/SEL models were now regular options.

Due to the, fuel efficiency was the major concern for the engineers, yet they still added also the high-performance, limited-production. This 8-cylinder model, affectionately referred to as simply 'the 6.9', boasted the largest engine installed in a postwar Mercedes-Benz up to that time. Every 450 SEL 6.9 featured a suspension, and offered the ABS as an option from 1978 onwards.

Also, in the United States and Canada only, Mercedes-Benz introduced the economical but powerful 3.0-liter 5-cylinder turbodiesel producing 85 kW (116 PS; 114 bhp) in 1978, sold as the 300SD.

Introduced in 2003, the S65 AMG offered the most powerful engine ever available in the S-Class. Engines The W220 was available with more engine options than the W126 or W140.

The range started with smaller 2.8 (Singapore) then 3.2L 167 kW (227 PS; 224 bhp) V6 motor, which was superseded by an enlarged 3.7 L 183 kW (248 PS; 245 bhp) V6 in the S350. The S430 was powered by a 4.3 L 208 kW (283 PS; 279 bhp) V8 and the S500 was powered by a 5.0 L 228 kW (310 PS; 306 bhp) V8. The S55 AMG was outfitted with a supercharged 5.4 L 368 kW (500 PS; 493 bhp) V8 motor, the S55 AMG 2000/2001 was outfitted with the naturally aspirated 5.4 L 270 kW (360 PS; 360 bhp) V8 motor. The S600 was outfitted with a 5.5 L 368 kW (500 PS; 493 bhp) V12 twin turbo engine, the S600 2000/2001 was outfitted with the naturally aspirated 5.8 L 274 kW (372 PS; 367 bhp) V12 engine.For one month in 2001, AMG produced the S63 AMG, which was sold in very limited numbers. The S63 was powered by a 6.3 L 331 kW (450 PS; 444 bhp) V12. An undisclosed number of them were sold exclusively through AMG in European and Asian markets. In later production years of the W220, a limited number of long wheel base S600 facelift models featuring AMG styling were produced to highlight the first of the AMG built M275 5.5 V12 Bi-Turbo powerplants; a luxury alternative to the S65 AMG and in terms of modern classics, as collectible as the S65 AMG itself.Powered by a 6.0 L 456 kW (620 PS; 612 bhp) V12 twin turbo motor, the S65 was the most powerful S-Class, as well as the world's most powerful production sedan of the era.

The S65 had a 0 to 97 km/h (0 to 60 mph) time of 4.2 seconds (conservative MB estimate) and an owner-tested time of 3.8 seconds and could reach 160 km/h (100 mph) under 9 seconds. Furthermore, an ECU software upgrade can result in the engine producing 550 kW (750 PS; 740 bhp) and over 1,150 N⋅m (850 lb⋅ft) of torque. Mercedes-Benz S 350 4MATIC long wheelbase (Europe)The all-new W221 was introduced in the autumn of 2005 at the Frankfurt International Motor Show, with sales starting in autumn of 2005 and export to other markets beginning in 2006. Again there was a big change in design. The S-Class made its North American premiere at the 2006 in January. The W221 is slightly larger in all dimensions than its predecessor, and it features three newly developed engines with up to 26% power increase. The interior is completely new, all materials have been upgraded and make for a more luxurious ride, and the center console transmission gear lever has been replaced with a column-mounted shifter.

New technological features on the W221 include an feature and the latest Mercedes-Benz. The W221 features sharper exterior styling (most notably wide fender arcs) and technological improvements.

The is the second consecutive generation of the S-Class to be solely produced in a sedan body style.Models sold in North America are the S450 (2008–, SWB and Canada only), S400 Hybrid (2010– ), S350 Bluetec 4MATIC (2012- ), S550, S600, S63 AMG and S65 AMG; other models to be sold outside North America include the S280, S350, S300, S420 CDI and S320 CDI. The first W221 model released in North America and Japan was the S550 (called S500 outside North America and Japan), with the S600 arriving in the following spring.In the US for the 2010 model year, the S-Class received a facelift across the entire model line in mid-2009. Daytime LED running lights were fitted to the outer edges of the bi-xenon lamp units. The rear end was accented with a total of 52 distinctively arranged LEDs in the two taillights. Gone are the body-colored strips through the tail lamps. Other noticeable changes at the front of the car are a more pronounced arrow-shaped grille, plus a new front bumper with a light-catching contour and a chrome strip below the cooling air intakes. New, sleeker rear-view door mirrors with LED turn signals were also added.

Exhaust tailpipes of all S-Class variants were visibly integrated into the rear bumper. The wheels were updated to more modern-style ones.

Also new is a S400 Hybrid version. Safety also improved on most Mercedes Benz models, with the orange-colored light reflectors mounted on the side of the bumpers. Also, before it was updated it had a C-Class look at the front.

Afterwards it disappeared. Also, some shiny chrome is added to the bottom of the doors and bumper.In terms of performance, the S550 completes the 0-100km/h run in just 5.4 seconds. Despite having a weight of 2,304 kg (5,079 lb), the S65 AMG still makes 0-100km/h (0-60mph) in just 4.2 seconds. The S600 makes the same sprint in about 4.6 seconds. 2010 Mercedes-Benz S400 BlueHybrid (Germany)The brakes continue to become more advanced with the new system monitoring for an and increasing braking if needed, while the radar guided can now bring the car to a complete stop. This system works in outdoor conditions; a test demonstration by Mercedes-Benz in a crash-test hall resulted in embarrassment for the company when a new S-Class crashed into the back of a stationary W220 S-Class.

This incident was later attributed to the radar system malfunctioning inside the radar-reflective (i.e. Radar-confusing) steel test building where the event was filmed.Upscale department store offered 20 special-edition S600 sedans for sale in its 2005 catalog. All 20 cars, priced at 145,000 each, sold on November 22, 2005 in under seven minutes. The Saks-edition S600 sedans were finished in a mocha black exterior with an almond beige interior and were the first examples of the S600 to be sold to private owners. The S600s came with nearly every option standard. In 2007, named the W221 S-Class as one of its 2007 'All-Stars' over rivals from and, and selected the S550 as the winner in a five-way comparison test of flagship luxury sedans, as did in July 2009 in a three way comparison test, with the other two competitors being the,.

The W221 S-Class was also the recipient of several other motoring awards (see ). InteriorOfficially unveiled in May 2013, the newest S-Class has a more streamlined appearance than the outgoing model. Some interesting features include a large front grille inspired by the Concept car and LED lights used exclusively inside and out – a first in the automotive industry. Two strong converging character lines give the flanks a more sculpted look, while integrated exhaust tips and a large glass roof (likely optional) highlight the design.Along with the sedan, the S-Class spawned a coupe and convertible (Mercedes-Benz A217) as well as an extended-wheelbase 'Pullman' variant, longer than the long wheelbase 'L.' While the short-wheelbase model carries chassis code W222, the long-wheelbase model uses chassis code V222. Unlike with previous generations, Mercedes focused primarily on the development of the longer model as many customers in the fast-growing Asian markets prefer to be chauffeured. In 2016 Mercedes W222 was the last car with an S65 AMG engine.Equipment Inside, almost every surface is covered by a 'luxury' material – everything that looks like leather is genuine leather and metal is used rather than any plastic alternative.

The instrument cluster consists entirely of two widescreen (30.5 cm diagonal) LCD displays with animated graphics. A 'Head-Up' display and gesture responsive touch pad became options in early 2014. It featured a new infotainment system.The W222 debuts the available, consisting of windshield mounted stereo cameras that can 'read' the road ahead (Road Surface Scan) and communicate with the suspension to ready it for an uneven road surface. The W220 S-Guard.A special version of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class has been produced, known as the S-Guard. Features include the capability to withstand small arms fire and certain explosive devices, a self-sealing fuel tank, and an alarm system. For 2009, Mercedes-Benz launched a long-wheelbase version of the S-Guard, known as the Pullman Guard. This model is 45 cm (18 in) longer than the standard model and also has a higher roof and taller rear window with a different rake.The S-Guard is widely used at the diplomatic level to protect world leaders.

Ninety governments worldwide are known to use the S-Guard for transport of government leaders and dignitaries. The S-Guard is built on a special production line at the S-Class facility in, with specific S-Guard enhancements integrated at multiple stages throughout the production process. Production Most S-Class models, including the W221, are built at the Daimler AG plant in, and at the plant in,. Founded by in 1915, the Sindelfingen plant also produced the model 600 'Grosser Mercedes' and past generations of the S-Class. Previous S-Class models (such as the W126) were built in different locations ranging from Stuttgart to South Africa, but with recent models (such as the W220) production has been concentrated in Sindelfingen and Santiago Tianguistenco. In February 2007, DaimlerChrysler Malaysia's (now, Mercedes Benz Malaysia) plant in Pekan, Pahang began production of S350 (model W221) vehicles and is currently assembling S300, S350L and S500L.

In all, some 2.7 million S-Class vehicles have been produced in the past forty years. W116: 473,035. W126: 818,036.
