2021 Mercedes-Benz S-Class debuts with tech and luxury innovations galore.
The 2021 Mercedes-Benz S-class, Mercedes's top-end luxury sedan, will come to the U.S. in the form of the S500 and S580, both with 4Matic all-wheel drive.
The new model offers a long list of technological, safety, and luxury improvements, and this new generation also represents a clear stylistic step forward for the iconic S-class.
The new Mercedes S-class is expected in the U.S. in mid-2021.
U.S. buyers will get a choice of two models and engines. The S500 4Matic will come with a turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six that makes 429 horsepower and 384 lb-ft of torque, while the S580 4Matic will have a twin-turbo 4.0-liter V-8 making 496 horsepower and 516 lb-ft. Both, as the 4Matic name indicates, will have all-wheel drive. The power will be channeled to the wheels through a nine-speed automatic transmission. Top speed will be electronically limited to 130 mph.
In Europe, the S-class launches with rear- and all-wheel drive and a choice of straight-six diesel and gasoline engines, the latter of which are fitted with a 48-volt hybrid system that can provide extra boost. Daimler promises a V-8, and there will be a plug-in hybrid, based on the straight-six gasoline model, with more than 60 miles of electric range. AMG models will receive a high-performance version of the 4.0-liter V-8. There will be no diesel in the U.S., but we will eventually get most other powertrain options.
The front end is graced by a new interpretation of the traditional Mercedes-Benz grille, similar to the facelifted E-class but bigger in size. The upcoming Maybach and AMG versions will each get their own unique grilles. The headlights look slim and slightly aggressive, the front hood is long enough to swallow anything from a straight-six to a V-12, and the greenhouse and side view are cleaned up and sharpened. In the rear, the new S-class gets a few delicate creases and horizontal taillights, like all other new Mercedes sedans. It is a contemporary and understated look that will be very competitive in its segment. While it is not lacking in sheer size, the new S-class appears sleeker than the Audi A8 and BMW 7-series that it will face off against.
Mercedes-Benz will offer several chassis systems; the top-level system scans the road surface and adjusts the suspension 1000 times per second. It can also lean into corners the way a boat or a motorbike does. Wheel sizes range from 19 to 21 inches, with the AMG model sure to add another inch.
Even though 90 per cent of buyers have opted for the long-wheelbase version in the past, Europe still gets a short S-class. But the U.S. sticks with the larger version, which will eventually be complemented by an even longer Mercedes-Maybach S-class, which will be offered—as the only remaining S-class—with the delightful 6.0-liter V-12.
