SCHEDULE A TEST DRIVE
Overview
If a private jet could be grounded and streamlined, it would be a flagship Mercedes-Benz S-Class Coupe. The S 560 4MATIC coupe offers the best of the S-class, leaving no questions unanswered when it comes to spacious, elegant sedans. Brilliantly designed, the S-Class cabin arrives at your door with two 12.3-inch displays. One screen is directly in front of you as you drive, keeping you updated with information about your vehicle in real time. And the other is in the center of the console, acting as the entertainment and comfort director of the ride with a multifunction menu screen. Smartphone-like touchpads in two places on the steering wheel give you control over all of the features.
Starting at $125,950 MSRP,* the S-Class Coupe is up to the challenge of showing its worth even before you slide into the driver’s seat.
The Perfect Ride for…
Drivers desiring the ultimate in handcrafted luxury and performance a notch above any others in its class. With a myriad of custom choices in hand-tailored leather and extraordinary wood trims options, the S-Class Coupe can match your personality perfectly. An optional head-up display helps you navigate, showing driving directions, speed, and more.
The S-Class holds the distinction of being the first automobile since electric current was invented without a single light bulb. Long-lasting and energy-efficient LED lighting adorns the vehicle from nose to tail, including the distinctive LED daytime running lamps to its three-segment vertical taillamps.
Resplendent with technology and smart styling, the Mercedes-Benz S-Class Coupe offers a comfortable and convenient ride for four passengers in a nimble, well-appointed package.
Drive & Handling
At the heart of an S-Class is a 3.0-liter V6 twin-turbo engine, which means it’s built for strength and agility. Offering a stellar 463 horses under the hood paired with 516 lb-ft of torque, the S-Class can leap from the start and then effortlessly glide down highways and up neighborhood streets with equal grace.
Choose your drive mode—Comfort, Eco, and Sport—to change multiple powertrain responsiveness parameters, or create a mode of your own, including the option for manual shifting only.
The lighter and more versatile 9G-TRONIC 9-speed automatic transmission clocks 0-60 mph in a mere 4.5 seconds and consistently presents 17 mpg city and 26 mpg highway fuel economy. Improvements to the ignition and injection mean greater fuel efficiency and performance in this model than ever before.
Key Features
PRE-SAFE SOUND
The innovative, exclusive Mercedes-Benz PRE-SAFE® system helps reduce the effects of a collision on occupants' hearing. When the sensors of PRE-SAFE detect an impending impact, you'll hear a distinctive tone via the audio system just before the collision. The human ear canal has a natural reflex to help tune out loud noises, and this tone's frequency is precisely engineered to trigger that impulse.
ATTENTION ASSIST
Mercedes-Benz is up to date with the latest driver-assist technology, including ATTENTION ASSIST®, the first system of its kind. ATTENTION ASSIST is your safety guardian when on the road and monitors your driving behavior. If it detects signs of driver fatigue behind the wheel, like a change in steering behaviors or tactical errors based on your normal behaviors, it issues an alert. This groundbreaking system monitors up to 70 driving parameters, measured on the patterns of the drivers themselves.
CAR-TO-X COMMUNICATION
Every new S-Class can automatically alert a central notification system of certain dangers, from wrong-way drivers, emergency vehicles approaching from behind or from the side, and even hazard lights. The vehicle “sees” potentially dangerous obstacles before they are perceived by the driver, and warns the driver and other road users. Ultimately, it obtains information from points outside the driver's field of vision, which is not the case with conventional sensors. With Car-to-X in-dash displays or announcements, the system can alert other drivers on the road, making it safer for all of us.
Alternative Options
Looking for something a little bigger? Try the E-Class Wagon, roomy and sleek, which matches the horsepower in an S-Class. If it's something sportier you want, test drive the 2019 Mercedes-Benz S 560 4MATIC Coupe.
