Spotted earlier this year, the 2018 S-Class will be revealed later this month of the 28th of August at Manarat Al Saadiyat. Along with the unveiling, we’ll be treated to two returning nameplates.<\/p>\n
Serving as a mid-cycle refresh, 2018 models receive slightly revised bumpers, headlights with a new design and new rim designs for each corner.<\/p>\n
All of these changes are available throughout the range including base level models, AMG versions and the range topping Maybach variants.<\/p>\n
While there are subtle\u00a0changes inside, the most significant is in plain view of drivers. Gone is the cruise\u00a0control lever which has now conveniently\u00a0merged with the steering wheel.<\/p>\n
Instead of fiddling with a stalk, touch sensitive\u00a0buttons allow drivers to activate the system, change speed and everything else in between.<\/p>\n
S450 models will boast a 3-litre twin-turbocharged petrol V6 rated at 362 horsepower. A 4-litre twin-turbo V8 powers the S560 churning out 463 hp and 700 Nm or torque. Both motors channel power to the rear axle via a nine-speed automatic gearbox.<\/p>\n
Mercedes’s range topping executive\u00a0sedan features a wide range of technological advancements. This includes an all-new adaptive cruise control system that utilises\u00a0map data fed from the built in computer; this allows the S-Class to automatically slow down for roundabouts and corners.<\/p>\n
The system also works alongside with active lane-change system to conveniently\u00a0change tracks with a quick tap of the indicator stalk.<\/p>\n
Although changes may appear subtle, the Mercedes-Benz 2018 S-Class will be a winner no matter what.<\/p>\n
