S-Class 2023

Excited at purchase, reality more subdued. Positives: generous space, good fuel economy. Negatives: touchscreen freezes, rear wiper smears, lane-keeping too aggressive. Not bad but needs polish.

Fourteen months, more time at the dealer than my driveway. Turbo failed at 8,000 miles, infotainment blank at 11,000 miles, persistent vibration they cannot locate. First and last experience with this brand.

1,200-mile round trip with two kids and a dog. Boot swallowed everything, rear space genuinely comfortable, fuel stops infrequent. Kids slept most of the way. Ultimate endorsement.

Just had my 2023 Mercedes-Benz S-Class valued after three years — depreciation far lower than I budgeted. Trouble-free ownership. A genuinely smart long-term buy.

40 miles each way. The 2023 Mercedes-Benz S-Class makes the commute genuinely enjoyable. Seats stay comfortable, adaptive cruise works brilliantly, fuel costs reasonable. After 25,000 miles nothing has gone wrong.

Been driving my 2023 Mercedes-Benz S-Class for eight months now. The positives are numerous — fuel efficiency, comfort, and the way it handles city traffic are all impressive. My gripes are that rear legroom is slightly tight for taller adults and the automatic transmission occasionally hesitates in…

Forty miles each way, five days a week. The 2023 Mercedes-Benz S-Class makes what should be a miserable commute genuinely enjoyable. The seats stay comfortable across the full journey, the adaptive cruise control works brilliantly on the motorway, and the fuel costs are very reasonable. After 25,000…
