S560 = S500 for USA?

S560 = S500 for USA?

The other way around. S500 in most markets = S560 in USA.

Really like the new non AMG line bumpers. The current ones are a bit meh!

 

[MercFan]

Don't like silver plastic on steering wheel.

That's what I call a leak

 

[W201]

You're not familiar with the work of Cytherea then

 

[trader1]

In this latest leak it appears the taillamps have that old-school "ribbed" surface , unless it's an optical illusion or they are designed to look that way. In any event nicely done....

476ps

I did the conversion to kW. It seems a bit low to give the S560 only 350kW?

350kw, 700Nm, active cylinder Management (the engine works as a classic four pot, unless power is needed the engine uses all it's eight cylinders), fuel consumption is being reduced by at least 12%, compared to the old M278 4.7 Liter engine with 455hp.

Japan and Canada also

But for the 560 badge, it's only 20kW higher than the old S500/550 output. That's a minor percentile increase?

Love it that they reintroduce the 560 badge to the S-class. In my opinion the 560 SEL and SEC were the finest W126 models of all, the new model hopefully will reinforce its dominance with this new engine.

My grandparents purchased the 560 SEL when it debuted.

From what I heard, it was quite and flew.

Well, we have same point.

 

[SCOTT27]

Same in Hong Kong, word is that the Maybach outsold the BMW 7-Series for a few months now. Just word from a trusted source. That's not counting the regular S-Class.

Maybach's rival in BMW is actually BMW Individual. No more no less.

 

[mercpassion]

As always I absolutely hate leaks, as they spoil the anticipation, but a nice effort by the guyz anyway for going to this length..as for the car, I think so far it looks really good, but the headlamps..I seriously need to get used to that angular shape, not working imo..

In all fairness, BMW doesn't have a rival to Maybach, but you can say that the Individual is the closest thing..

 

[Serpens]

I'm looking forward to this. Wish we were getting the I6 in the U.S. though.

In all fairness, BMW doesn't have a rival to Maybach, but you can say that the Individual is the closest thing..

Which is not a criticism of BMW in my opinion, given their ownership of Rolls-Royce.

560 SEL that and our 380 se and 500 se those days I was a young boy my family first had a 380se then we sold and bought 420se then that went a 500se and then the king the white 560 SEL..it was a beauty I can still picture the car and it was a beast that V8 was a machine.My dad and uncle loved v8s as u can see lol.

The render looks very good I like the extra chrome on the front bumper.One question is why is the command control not upgraded like the E 63.I miss the current steering without a spoke at the bottom but this steering seems more functions.
