Review: 2021 Mercedes-Benz S-class review, test drive

Image
https://ift.tt/3A8q3eR 2021 Mercedes Benz S Class: what is it? The S-Class is the default choice of luxury limousine for India's mega rich. Mercedes has sold over 8,000 S-Classes in India since the fourth-gen model's launch here in 2000 and is looking to add to the tally with this latest, seventh-gen W223 model. Like every new S-Class, the latest model is built to be “the best car in the world” and represents Mercedes at its forward-looking best. There's more tech than ever before, even if at its core this remains a car primarily built to transport its high net worth occupants in ultimate luxury. For the moment, the S-Class comes to India as a full import in fully-loaded Launch Edition form. Later in the year, locally assembled versions will go on sale with a (relatively) lower price tag and presumably fewer features. 2021 Mercedes Benz S Class: what's it like on the outside?
