Overview & Reviews

The Mercedes-Benz S-Class adds a plethora of variants for 2015. The V12-powered S600 and range-topping S65 AMG join the range, and the S550 Plug-In Hybrid will arrive in early 2015. Most notably, however, the former CL-Class has been renamed and rejoined its four-door sibling as the all-new S-Class coupe. Also new for 2015 is a revised COMAND electronics controller throughout the lineup, the option of a head-up display and available carbon-ceramic brakes for AMG models. The previously optional cabin air filtration and fragrance system is now standard.

  Bucket list car - 2015 Mercedes-Benz S-Class
  By John Dickinson - April 29 - 11:19 pm

  It eats tires and brakes, and will cost you more for gas as it is lucky to get 16mpg if you do not drive on freeway every day. Definitely would be the car if you did a lot of open road driving at higher speeds. Lots of power for passing even at high speeds. Quiet and great ride.

  Great car - 2015 Mercedes-Benz S-Class
  By Frank - February 27 - 10:47 am

  Sensitive to tire puncture issues. Its a big heavy car but it has racy low wall tires on it. Update: since bought a 2017 Cabriolet S63 AMG (same car, just a convertible). Has been perfect now for 6 months.

  Great ride - 2015 Mercedes-Benz S-Class
  By OG - April 10 - 11:21 pm

  If you are all about comfort, this is your car. Difficult to find another choice in that price range with such a plethora of technology and comfort. Precisely, this is what may become a little overwhelming for some people. Having said that, do not expect this car to be "perfect". It is not. It has a lot of issues with software that may force you to get the car to the dealership for upgrades, but once the car is updated, it runs like no other. Tire wear is considerable with the factory installed Pirelli Flat Run. Ridiculous to be honest! At 5 thousand miles, dealership already suggested to replace front tires. Be prepared to spend in premium tires at least once every other year, sometimes less, depending on the brand and your driving habits. The dynamic cruise control (Distronic) feature is amazing, same the self-driving (under 30 mph) capability. Full isolation in its cabin, smooth ride, unparalleled audio quality, amazing response... and a price tag above 100K. But, hey, worthy in every penny.

  Complete disapointment - 2015 Mercedes-Benz S-Class
  By og4delta - September 30 - 11:08 am

  This is the worst premium car i have ever had. Seriously, it is almost comical that you set the expectations so high in such a "high end car" to be right back in the dealer every 2-3K miles and drive a loaner car. Be ready for constant check engine light on, break problems, ac problems, just to mention the most annoying and apparently commun troubles with the S-550. Last time that i took the car back for a break problem, dealer told me that MB is preparing a "permanent" solution for this situation due to the high frequency of this occurrence (rotors)... really?, at this point, one year after rolling out this model, they dont have a solution for a break fall out? Bummer!

  Our 3rd S Class - 2015 Mercedes-Benz S-Class
  By ecurry - September 14 - 9:28 pm

  Weve owned 5 MBs and to be honest I can identify with the people who have had problems. Ive had issues with MB in the past but fortunately for us this time seems to be a charm. We did however have to have the battery replaced. It seems if one has the push button start/stop feature, one has to be sure the car is off and not in standby mode or it will deplete the battery. Now to the good stuff. This car rocks!! This is the best luxury car on the road bar none. Id put it up against anything out there where luxury is concerned, including Rolls or Bentley. When compared to the uber luxury cars the new S-Class is a champ!

  The Epitome Of Understated Luxury - 2015 Mercedes-Benz S-Class
  By chofgarden - May 1 - 1:12 pm

  After several thousand miles in a 2015 S550 it would be hard to imagine a more well rounded or comfortable luxury sedan. Performance with the 449HP V8 is more than adequate for any circumstance, and handling is better than one might expect given the size and weight of the car, especially when in the sport mode. The ride is remarkable over any surface and the noise level is lower than any luxury car Ive owned, including a Bentley Flying Spur. Mileage is runnning about 20 MPG in combination town and highway driving, getting 25+ on the highway. The technology features abound but are subtle enough not to intrude excessively, and arent difficult to master. Not one problem so far. A home run

  Almost exceptional - 2015 Mercedes-Benz S-Class
  By Robert Posey - March 9 - 12:23 pm

  Ive got a new S550 sedan. Mostly Im pleased. However, the fit of the right passenger door wood alignment is off about a half inch. The drivers seat is hard and poorly cushioned. Ergonomically, the steering wheel heater switch is invisible and not displayed. Finally, the Eco mode wont stay off and resets to "on" every time the car is started. Picky, picky, but for $120 thousand, I expect things perfect.

  The best new car purchase Ive ever made! - 2015 Mercedes-Benz S-Class
  By Gary Neill - January 21 - 9:43 am

  I just purchased the 2015 S550 Coupe, and I must say that it is a pleasure to drive. Smooth, comfortable, luxurious and sporty. This is the best new car purchase Ive ever made.
