model, including some new engine options and more.
Several new engines are planned for the new S-Class:
in-line six cylinders as diesel and petrol engines as well as a new V-8 biturbo
petrol engine. In addition, Mercedes-Benz plans a plug-in hybrid with an
electric range of about 50 kilometres. The ground-breaking

The top-of-the-range model of Mercedes-Benz takes
another big step towards autonomous driving and elevates Intelligent Drive to
the next level. DISTRONIC Active Proximity Control and Active Steer Assist now
provide even more comfortable support for the driver to keep a safe distance
and steer. The speed is now adjusted automatically ahead of curves or
junctions. MULTIBEAM LED headlamps and ULTRA RANGE High Beam turn night into
day.
