The fuel consumption is based on the EURO cycle that favors all types of hybrid systems, but in the reality S500 will consume much, much moreThe fuel consumption/performance of the S500 is excellent for a six cylinder engine car weighing approx. 2000kg, 0-100 in just 4.8sec and 6.6ltr/100km. Its as fast as the 2003 500HP Twin Turbo S600 V12!!!!
My thoughts exactly. Finally a good looking wheel for non 63/65 AMG model.

The S Class FL is looking better with each new pic..
Finally the full press kit available, with some great pictures as well;

Still can't believe right-hand versions of S63 are RWD only! And they can't put 4Matic with V12!
I think that even AMG officials said that they were working on a V12 with 4matic and higher output so it is really a letdown that it did not come with the facelift, maybe the coupe facelift hides some surprise.Maybe W223 will have V12 with 4Matic, but if BMW can do it with M760i xDrive so can Merc. Some day.

Well that's the point, you don't have to touch it.![]()
That's quite interesting....Fun fact: S560 4Matic L is 55kg heavier than S63 4Matic L (2125kg vs 2070kg, EU weight). Also S560 is 50kg heavier than pre-facelift S500 with old V8 (1995kg vs 2045kg, EU weight).
