    Thomas Majchrzak of Autogefühl explains to you in this extensive documentary, why the new Mercedes S-Class Coupé is maybe the best car ever. It’s not the cheapest one of course and not the one with the best price-performance-ratio, but as for technology, design and comfort more than convincing.

    In my opinion there's no doubt that Thomas is the very best car reviewer on the internet.
    Very interesting review.

    This kind of car is for very rich people who don't want to showboat with a Ferrari or Lamborghini and just want to "fly under the radar". Very tasteful model.

    I've watched quite a few of your reviews today and I have to say I'm very impressed with the highly detailed reviews you produce. I'm from the UK and admire that despite it not being your first language, you make your videos for the English-speaking audience around the world. Well done. And thank you.

    Another fine review, This S coupe is so beautiful in person. Videos and pictures don't do it justice. Many dream of Ferrari and Lamborghini as dream cars but this is much more easy to live with. A dream car for me, but then again might as well dream of the S65 AMG

    Finally, there there is a mercedes that can join the AMG GTS in having a pretty rear! I've always thought that the mercedes rear ends look rather bulky, but the newer models are slowly fixing that!

    Thank you Thomas for a fine review. Your review contributed to my decision to purchase this car. My previous car was a 500SL which I loved. I traded it due to no cargo space. The coupe allows me to carry a few extra passengers when needed and the boot is larger. After owning the car now for 12 months, I can say it is a dream to drive. It is a show stopper at every traffic light. This car handles almost as well as the SL. The air suspension is fantastic. The seats are a dream, especially when cornering. I will tell you that my first choice was the cabriolet, however, the dealer was not willing to deal but would on the coupe. Am I happy with this car - YES.

    Hi Autogefühl, first of all thank you for your really good DETAILED reviews, They are a pleasure to watch!!! I'm glad I found you guys...I watched almost all of your reviews but enough of schleimen :):). I was wondering if you could show the interior lights during night for all of reviews. I find they have such a big influence (of course during the night) for the ambiance.
    All the best from Braunschweig.

    Habe Autogefühl erst entdeckt. Es war ein Genuss dieses Review zu sehen. Es ist ein ziemlich vorbildliches Film für alle Leute die solche Autotests machen wollen. Der Film hat perfektes nicht zu schnelles, nicht zu langsames Tempo, der Background war (wie in anderen Autogefühl Tests) interessant und die Kameraarbeit ohne Schwächen. Thomas, du hast großes Können, wenn es um erzählen geht. Und findest clevere und richtig wichtige Details bei den Autos. Bei diesem Review hab mich besonders auf die Zeiten von Motorvision in der 90er Jahren wieder erinnert...
    P.S. Für mich, die Kamera hat ein bisschen Differenz zwischen Active Body Control off/on jedoch eingefangen.
    Viele Grüße!

    Wow, I really wouldn’t call myself a Mercedes fan, but this car is not only damn sexy, its technical features massively rock, too. To be honest, I’m pretty impressed.
    The best car ever? I don’t know. (Watch out for the new BMW 7 Series coming up soon…) But what I know for sure is that this was - by far - the best review of your entire channel IMHO. Excellent work, Thomas! Keep it up!

I had seen your review come up on youtube but never watched because I thought it was in German. lol I'm glad I clicked the video.

    • @damieg82
      @damieg82 8 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      +Autogefühl I rather like the wheels just as they are. There's an understated elegance from modest sized wheels which is often lost with larger or more flashy wheel designs. It's not for all cars though... for instance it would look completely odd and ugly on a car with more sporting pretensions, say even Mercedes' own SL model, but on this type of massive uber luxury coupe, I think it works well

    Terrific review Thomas ! This car is stunning inside and out ! The interior looks amazing, and the seats are unlike any other. Love the aggressive front grill . I find the rear of the car a little understated though. I think the tail lights could be sportier, but that is a very small detail when compared to the overall beauty of this MB. Greetings from the U.S. !

    Thomas,
    You give us excellent, in-depth, and full reviews of the vehicles, but one suggestion I have is for you to insert a picture of comparison cars you mention as a review a particular car. For example, you mentioned that the rear of the S500 coupe looks different from the C-class: this will be a good time for you to insert a picture of the C-class rear for viewers to compare.

    @khkckhkc 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    Excellent review, very Germanic in a good way - insightful and technical, but please work out the difference between Active (Magic) Body Control which is hydraulic and Airmatic which is pneumatic, the rear wheel drive version of the coupe has the former, it operates at a much higher bar to facilitate the instantaneous adjustments needed to control the body movement , so many reviewers/ motor journalists get this completely wrong.
    I have the last CL and love its understated wolf in sheep's clothing style but this new one is a much more desirable if a little too showy car, the interior is so very special though!

    • @autogefuehl
      @autogefuehl  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      KHKC1 Thanks! Yes you are right, its a bit tricky. Standard is air suspension, optionally as shown is hydraulic with the Magic Body Control. :)

    Great review. Probably the best looking Mercedes to come out since the W129 SL500 design of the late 1990's.. The car has tremendous presence and class. Probably my first choice over a Rolls Royce Wraith or Bentley Continental GT, that are double the price almost.

      JM R Thanks! Yeah indeed, serial production für S-Class Coupé is air suspension, but optional Magic Body Control is hydraulic, thanks!

    Very nice car. Two issues. 1.Needs upgraded rims even for this "base model". 2.The ivory interior looks very nice but it WILL get dirty. A darker shade or even standard black interior would look better after a few years. Very good review^^.

    Good review. The reviewer is pleasant to listen to and appears knowledgeable.
    Now, it's already 2021, and I hope to buy a used 2016-2017 model year of this car, maybe this year or next year.
    The white color of this car is nicer, in my opinion, than all the other colors (including the black one).
    If Thomas can please confirm that also in 2016-2017 this car has air suspension (not any other suspension), then I would be thankful for such a confirmation.

    • @autogefuehl
      @autogefuehl  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      thanks for following! This very vehicle had that e active body control where the car can lean into the corners (optional). Air suspension is a requirement for this. All S-Class models at Mercedes have air suspension as standard.

    After another viewing, more thoughts--Great features: The ambient lighting is top notch, beautiful. exterior puddle light too. The exterior and interior design, color and materials are great. Comfort great.
    Not so great features: The perfume dispenser--why? I just don't get it. With a V8, I would like to hear more engine noise and feedback--shame it is almost too isolated. I don't like the wide screen for navigation, it dominates the dash and is distracting. In fact, the whole dash is trying too hard. Do we need any more air vents? Too many gadgets. I'd give up a few fancy features for a lower price. Oh, what happens when you get in the car with muddy shoes and drop a ketchup laden french fry on those lovely white seats?
    I am waiting for the s class convertible. I think the coupe competes with Bentley, etc, but with a convertible it also might compete with the less expensive e- class cabriolet (once redesigned next year). I will wait to see that to see how much better the s class is over the e class for the money.

    Been keeping my eye on the S500s and the Wraith for some time and like Nick below would like a little info on the AMG versions. The Wraith looks great but at £100k more it seems a little excessive. Perhaps a comparison in you commentary will be useful if and when you do one. Thanks v much for the review.

    • @autogefuehl
      @autogefuehl  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      George Gunnee Thanks! Indeed the S-Class Coupé is a better price/performance deal. Well the AMG version will have just plenty more of power, just be sure not to pick the 65 as that one wont have the special suspension available, just the V8 models (normal an 63)

    Hello,
    You have made an AMAZING review. I love the S-Class coupe (especially the cabriolet variant). But there is one thing you haven't talked about. And that is SAFETY.
    Can you please tell me how much does it borrow from the S-Class saloon in terms of safety? For the coupe and convertible versions, is there available any system that can activate the brakes in case of collision with pedestrians?
    Thank you!

    Great review, very thorough. Sporty or comfortable? This is the dichotomy these days. Cars are either good handling, engaging but very firm riding and uncomfortable, OR soft riding, very comfortable, but poor handling dynamics weak and isolated. Is it either or? This car seems almost too isolated from the driving experience. At the same time, I wish more manufacturers would make the ride more comfortable like the S class and not just sports car super firm suspensions with uncomfortable rides. The roads these days (and speed bumps) can take their toll. Which is it? comfort or fun?

    • @autogefuehl
      @autogefuehl  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Dean Brandon Here the comfort dominates for sure, but it is incredible how sporty the car still is with the special suspension
