With the introduction of the Bluetech ultraclean diesel hybrid and ultimately a fuel cell-powered vehicle, the 2008 Mercedes Benz S Class luxury sedan has its eye on a pollution-free future. As contrary to that as it may sound, the S Class S65 AMG is powered by a 6.0L V12 which develops 604hp and squeezes out 11mpg city and 17mpg highway. Two of the other three models also produce the same fuel economy, as it were, the S600 with a 5.5L, 510hp engine, and the S63 AMG with a 6.2L, 518hp engine. The remaining S550 makes due with a 5.5L, 382hp engine.

All things luxurious have been added to the new S Class including ash trays, a cell phone, and remote garage door opener, to allow you to smoke, chat, and make a stylish entry or exit from your compound. The front seats of the new S Class are as close to being in the womb as can be possible, with heating, ventilation, and massage all built-in. Entry lighting and parking distance sensors assure safe ingress and egress from your S Class even at night. Touting a 20 gigabyte memory for its GPS, the S Class offers voice activation of its navigation system.

More likely than not, the driver of a Mercedes S Series will find himself in the situation where his high speed driving might require a corresponding increase in steering fortitude. For this situation the S Class has included standard, speed sensitive assisted power rack and pinion steering. The faster the vehicle goes, the more power is afforded for steering the vehicle. For added comfort when handling the steering wheel, Mercedes offers a fully adjustable, tilting wheel that is heated, and which tilts out of the way to allow easier exiting.

One could ask, what could possibly be lacking on the 2008 Mercedes Benz S Class sedan that could be added as optional equipment. You will be glad you asked when you find out that you can have wheel locks, 4Matic all-wheel drive, or a wood-inlaid, leather wrapped steering wheel. This only hints at the impressive array of other options available on the new S Class Mercedes.
