i think we are missing the amazing thing in this..a car the size of the S with 6.6 in fuel consumption..
and probably very eco friendly.. meaning that in the countrys that reward owning eco friendly cars this car will be even further attractive..
the interesting thing might not be this engine in the S..but eventually in the E and C.. in those segments it will do MB very well.. they will sell like hotcakes i belive.. | | | | | The Following User Says Thank You to The Artist For This Useful Post: | | | Connoisseur

Thankfully MBUSA would never import such a car here! I'm more interested in a S420 Bluetec or whatever they hybrid S will have under the hood. Does anyone know?

Before I would go for such a car, I would buy a Jaguar XJ6 2.7 diesel...  | | | | | Contributor

I can easily imagine 70-year old Hans and his Frau in such a car. Perfect car for rich German pensioners.   | | | | | The Following User Says Thank You to EnI For This Useful Post: | | | Moderator

...and then, they will block the fast lane with their tank...  Did anyone of you know, how fast this S-Class will be?! Nevertheless, a consumption of 6.6 litre / 100km is just great and amazing for such a heavy car... | | | | | Contributor
