Even the exterior of that previous generation looked real amazing~ W222 was the best generation S-Class in terms of looks and technology, but I don't think this W223 is bad. It's just the previous W222 had that elegance that was just right for the S Class.
Love the interior. Not sure about the exterior though. Last Gen model, there was no question about the exterior. It oooozed luxury and sophistication and it stood out without being overbearing. Seems like they played it safe with this one.
If ever there was a $150,000 bargain this is it. Congratulations on being nearly [if not the] first channel to post an W223 driving review video here in America. It actually made me feel more comfortable with the changes. Instinctively you understand how the S-Class experience seduces us into a sensation of superlative wealth.
This car isn't for me BUT I love how honest you are and you sprinkle your thoughts where it doesn't derail viewer's opinion during the review. And my favorite is you explain what the buyers look for in the vehicle. Not a lot of journalist review cars like that, you have a great balance.
I am slowly getting accustomed to the logic behind the design language of this car, which is quite well executed. The Engine's power and torque levels are also quite reasonable. My only gripe lies in the fact that the cockpit mimics that of the Tesla, for me detracts somewhat from the quality Daimler Benz AG should have put into this car, given the superior quality of the cockpit in the EQS, which should also been given to this car. Overall, this is such an amazingly Beautiful and Capable automobile for family men and women, who happen to be captains of industry, who do the school run with the children, in addition to also transporting elderly family members in great comfort. Nicely Balanced, and a lovely Review dealing succinctly with the initially with the initial impressions of a fine Automobile. If I had to choose between the Mercedes Benz S580 and the BMW 750Li, I would always choose the 750Li, I am a Driver at heart, and the 750Li brings me a 523 BHP V8 Engine that has a very strong power delivery throughout the rev range, and I am more at ease with the cockpit of the 7 Series than the S Class - it's really a personal preference. Nonetheless, the 2021 S - Class remains a Great Car.
Here for the comments saying "the last generation was better" and "this looks like every other Mercedes" even though this is exactly what people said when the last generation was launched and then they learned to love it.
The piano black trim pieces on the dash and the doors are actually lacquered wood, not something as pedestrian as plastic, haha! I believe the metallic lines in the trim are painted (don't quote me on this), but MB actually does offer trim with aluminum sandwiched between wood, labeled "Silver Aluminum/Fanned Walnut wood" (a $3,200 option).
A delightful and comprehensive review, as always. I have to say though, I'm not moved by the new S-Class design. I remember in the 80s and 90s when an S-Class had a certain imposing presence. That seems to be largely absent from recent designs. In fact, this new car looks like it's trying hard to look smaller than it actually is, but maybe the impression is different in person?
I've pre-ordered the Maybach s class 680, black exterior black interior fully-loaded and now I just need to wait. mind you this is a 21st birthday gift that my parents let me buy myself.
Love the S Class but the LCI previous generation interior was far nicer. That version of MBUX was solid and there were still hard buttons for the most commonly used features. Also, I would hope MB offers different wood choices and matte finishes because that shiny plasticky looking wood will only look good for a while plus it reflects sunlight like crazy.
I saw three hours ago an S63 AMG cupé it was black with dark tint windows and it had a most magnificent presence on the street surrounded by Fords Hondas and old GMs. It caught my eye because it didn’t look like a MB it looked more like a love child between a Bentley and something Italian. I had to drive up quickly before it got away and I got a glimpse of the back side batches and a bit of the right side sculpture. No MB look a like. No bigger than an E Class but taller and wider. A beauty rolling down the street.
Out of my price range, but if I was in the market I would prefer the exterior styling of an Audi. This new S Class looks too much like a budget knock off of a Mercedes.
That screen and piano gloss plastic looks extremely cheap. The entire center point of the interior is a screen, there's no flowing lines or geometry like the last generation which frankly looks better than this. You can't even tell this apart from a C class or anything else anymore, they all look the same from the outside. The S class always had the 3 distinct DRL LEDs which signified you were driving the top of the line, now it just looks like everything else.
Duhhh the c class has 1 dots inside the front headlight and s class has 3 while E class has 2 dots. You clearly don’t know what you’re talking, C class has always looked similar to the S class, The previous W205 and W222 were very similar too!
Actually, glossy piano lacquer is extremely high-end, as you'd know if you ever tried to buy furniture in Europe. Sadly, people aren't required to submit an income tax return and an IQ test before commenting on this site.
That side crash feature where it raises the car on the side it detects a crash, actually isn’t “new”, it debuted on the Audi A8 first, it is new for Mercedes. Anyway, I like this car maybe a different wheel option or aftermarket option, I’d like to wait and see the AMG versions also Brabus makes their own versions which are pretty damn sweet.
There are one thing that you didn't really talk about related to a safety feature, the blind spot monitor is actually work with the ambient lighting.. That was a big thing in a S class, that was the first Mercedes that had this feature.
Is MBUX built upon Android? I can't seem to find any answers online other than vague references to using Nvidia's A.I. Does anyone know what hardware they use and if you can find samples of the software?
Its all about the better deal. The new m5 cs comes with pirellis but some came off the production line with Michelin 4s. Sometimes its all about the deals being offered to manufacturers at times. It changes. Dont be surprise u see the same Mercedes with another brand on it
My third s class. The exterior design looks much better in person. The ride and drive are both improved. The dual screen layout is a step backwards for this series both aesthetically and in functionality . The center touch touch screen takes your eye off of the road to operate while you search for a menu or try something as simple changing the radio channel. It also takes away from the comfort experience because the ergonomics of the touchscreen are just far enough away from the user to make the driver move his driving position to operate it. The center console takes away the armrest for your forearm as well as reduces the cup holders size.The touch screen stays covered in fingerprints and the fingerprint id is an extra step that gets annoying on a daily basis. The touch screen is also hard to see at times with the suns reflections. The new air vents sit high and away from the driver and cause a distracting reflection on the windshield. The ride and drive are outstanding , but the electronics make it very frustrating to operate.
7:00 I think global specs S class does come with sequential turn signals. Maybe they swapped it because of the US regulation something about the first flicker of turn signal should be as bright as the brake lights (something like that) and since if it's sequential, the first flicker would be deemed not enough to meet the regulation. Hence why Audi's turn signal is a bit ridiculous because not only you have the turn signal part moving in sequential, but also the brake light which doubles as the turn signal. Mercedes probably thought it would be better to have it not sequenting rather than having brake-share/red turn signals.
I expect nothing less from a Mercedes-Benz S Class~~ Absolutely amazing :) Although, I'm just here as a normal person who can't afford one, which is probably everyone in the comments xD
The Audi A8/S8 actually rolled out the side lifting pre-collision prep feature first…I believe Audi’s been offering this feature for at least the past 2 yrs…by no means am I confirming which company actually created/patented the feature from inception
Love the exterior, but agreed that the previous gen interior was better. For over $100k I don’t want to see any cheap piano black plastic, and touch sensitive buttons are a huge pain (no, you don’t get used to them). I’ll take our Volvo XC90 T8’s interior over the S550 any day.
I much prefer the sophistication and elegance of DIALS and GUAGES over the cheap looking flat screens. It's not like we don't already have enough flat screens in our lives.
This is a true boss’s car. Elegant and modern yet still classic. Luckily I cannot afford it since it will probably be very expensive to maintain when it gets older. Still I think it is a fantastic car.
Even the OLED infotainment screen will be a replacement item after a certain amount of hours due to burn in. These cars are not meant to still be on the road in 20 years - unlike previous generations on S-class. No doubt they are making them disposable because they see the future as all EV. Shame to think of something so expensive and greenhouse heavy as this as disposable though...
@@Astke but you still wasting money this way. You pretty much leasing to test a car every 3-5 years. Also if you fuck up German car tires. They want to the exact same ones. Cost like $2500CAD for BMW X3 to replace whole set. It's fucking rip off. But at the sametime BMW cars are comfortable

@@brynnleahnayvieghlaykynnn6175 yeah careful with dealerships taking your tires. Cause they can combo the tires with the used cars for sales when they get a customer.

I may be in the minority, but I am woefully underwhelmed by this design. S-Classes have long had stately road presence that commanded attention. This can easily be confused to be an E-Class. I am just confused by the anonymity in the styling. Yes, it has the tech, but even the V8 performance figures are not all that impressive, something I didn't think I would say about a MB.(the current BMW 750 makes 523hp, and will likely go even higher with the new model on the horizon.) My wife is a current W222 owner and loves the car. Not sure what to think of this one. Seems to not be worth the upgrade.
"This can easily be confused to be an E-Class" As if the previous generation did not have that problem... Now C-class, E-class and S-class have somewhat distinct design.
@@Hyrppa95 I've never mistaken the W222 for anything other than an S-Class, while viewing from any angle. The same can not be said for this new iteration, easily coming across as a puffed-up E-Class. It just lost that stately S-Class design. That said, I've not seen it in person, so maybe my opinion may change.
Why do you do brake stands on the cars? It seemed like you confused the computers and it accelerated slower. You should’ve just mashed the gas pedal instead of doing that brake / gas thing.
I like it, but still prefer the previous gen interior.
yeah they overdid themselves the previous one was perfect balance between technology and premium materials

You are spot on!

This isn't a "new" luxury safety feature. Audi introduced this a couple of years ago
I thought the same thing.
Oh yeah???
Mercedes got more updated with 3.5 inches while Audi is 2 inches. Like rear wheels steering Mercedes got it up to 10 degrees Audi is only 3 degrees
S Class is benchmark for Audi and BMW for years already.
The interior is gorgeous.. just wish it had a regular gauge cluster instead of that tablet thing.
Me too.
agreed that one was a mistake, tesla did that right in the last S. Also, touch on the steering wheel is super annoying!
