Few vehicles are quite as synonymous with a specific vehicular segment as the Mercedes-Benz S-Class is with luxury sedans, and the introduction of the latest and greatest version of S-Class proves just why the German automaker is such a dominant force in this market.
The 2018 Mercedes Benz S-Class is fitted with a turbocharged V6 engine that is capable of churning out up to 362 horsepower in addition to a healthy 487 pounds-feet of torque, with the inclusion of lag-mitigating technology ensuring that the vehicle's transmission can be switched seamlessly, enabling the vehicle to gallop along as if it's flying.
Elsewhere, this S-Class features all the trappings you'd come to expect from a BMW luxury sedan, including a massage chair, wireless charging capability and multimedia entertainment, making this a vehicle that's just as enjoyable for passengers as it is to drivers.
