2025 Mercedes-Benz S-Class
Starting at: $118.900

Highs: Sophisticated and elegant inside and out, remarkably quick for its size, refined ride.
Lows: Overwhelming amount touchscreen controls, adaptive cruise and hands-free mode can get agitated, 3-D gauge cluster is a swing and miss.
Verdict: Not only the flagship of the brand, the S-class also serves as the de facto flagship of luxury sedans in general.

Overview

Long the choice for buyers seeking solid, unaffable deportment and a distinguished presence, the Mercedes-Benz S-class has become synonymous with power and wealth. Its six-figure starting price certainly plays a part, but it wouldn't have stayed on top for so long without the class-leading ride and comfort, upscale furnishings, and smooth and muscular powertrains that define it. The latter comes in the form of either a 429-hp turbocharged straight-six, a 496-hp twin-turbo V-8, or a plug-in hybrid that pairs the turbo six with an electric motor. The ride and handling benefit from a standard air-spring suspension, and heated and ventilated massaging front seats coddle the occupants. Well-equipped as standard, there's also a long list of optional hides, woods, and colors to personalize the S-class to your taste. If there is an area of contention, it's the sheer number of screens and their almost overwhelming amount of controls and features. Still, while many rivals including the Audi A8, BMW 7-series, and Genesis G90 have made inroads onto the big Benz's turf, for now at least, it remains the king of full-size luxury sedans.
