Mercedes-Benz S-Class is Best Luxury Car

Editor in Chief, David Johns said: "Mercedes-Benz redefined what we expect from the luxury car class with the S-Class, it still stands out like a beacon four years after its launch...the outstanding quality, effortless performance and superb refinement of the S-Class just couldn't be matched by its rivals, old or new."

Since the launch in 2006, the flagship model has continued to dominate sales in the luxury car segment with class leading innovative technology and the highest levels of comfort and style.

Dermot Kelly, Managing Director of Mercedes-Benz Cars said: "It is fantastic to receive this accolade from Auto Express again this year. We are delighted that the S-Class has been awarded the Best Luxury Car title every year since we introduced the current car to the UK market, and it is going to get even better."

Later this year the new-generation S-Class will arrive in the UK, and, will of course feature even more safety and technological enhancements, along with improved performance and efficiency. The combined fuel consumption of the

S 350 CDI BlueEFFICIENCY is now 6.3 liters/100 km, an improvement of 9% and CO2 emissions have been reduced by 21% to just 199 g/km.
