2023 Mercedes S580 for Sale
Model PreviewFor 2022, Mercedes-Benz introduced a handful of changes to the S-Class. With the large luxury sedan set to enter its third model year on sale since a full redesign, we expect the 2023 S-Class to be a carryover model. Show
On the outside, the 2023 Mercedes-Benz S-Class will have the same overall design as the current model that’s on sale. With smooth body lines, few hard edges, and simple design elements, the S-Class has a regal look. The sedan’s front end features an oversized grille and a large front air intake that are offset by relatively small headlights. At the back, the S-Class has oval exhaust outlets and triangular taillights. The interior of the current S-Class has a high-tech and opulent look. The interior is dominated by massive screens, especially the tablet-style touchscreen in the center console. Thanks to the placement of the central touchscreen, the dashboard has air vents that are mounted high up on the dashboard, clean lines, and minimal controls. The S-Class continues to set the standard in the large sedan segment for fit and finish, as well as material quality. As a carryover model, the 2023 S-Class should have the same design as the current sedan that’s on sale.  Mercedes offers cutting-edge tech features with the S-Class. These should remain the same for the 2023 model year. Standard features should include a 12.8-inch touchscreen, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a wireless charging pad, six USB ports, 15 audio speakers, a “Hey, Mercedes” voice assistant, and gesture control. Available features include a 3D instrument cluster, two 11.6-inch rear touchscreens, a 30-speaker audio system, a rear wireless charging pad, and a handheld tablet. Mercedes should offer the 2023 S-Class with two engines. The standard engine will be a turbocharged 3.0-liter six-cylinder engine with a 48-volt mild-hybrid system. The powertrain produces 429 horsepower. A twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V8 engine with a 48-volt mild-hybrid system is available, making 496 hp. All engines come paired with a nine-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive. The current Mercedes S-Class comes with forward and rear collision warning, pedestrian detection, automatic emergency braking, rear cross-traffic alert, blind spot monitoring, hands-free park assist, a surround-view parking camera, a driver attention monitor, adaptive cruise control, traffic jam assist, lane keeping assist, lane departure warning, automatic high-beam assist, a dashcam, and car-to-X communication as standard equipment. These features will continue to be available on the 2023 model. Pricing & Release DateThe 2023 Mercedes-Benz S-Class will have a starting price tag of $115,000 (including destination) for the S500 4Matic trim. The S580 4MATIC will cost $120,600. Consumers can order the 2023 S-Class at the time of writing. The Mercedes-Benz S-Class will compete against the Genesis G90, BMW 7-Series, Audi A8, and Volvo S90.

OverviewThe Mercedes-Benz S-class maintains superiority by being the full-size luxury sedan by which all others are judged. The S-class satisfies the tastes of its moneyed clientele with stacks of fine materials, deep-seated comfort, and loads of technology. There are two models, both equipped with standard 4Matic all-wheel drive—the S500 and S580—each with an exclusive powertrain. The S500 comes with a silken, 429-hp turbocharged straight-six, while the S580 bosses up with a smooth 496-hp V-8. The Mercedes-Maybach S-class super-luxury model, reviewed separately, offers an absolutely decadent experience. Although the S-class’s priority to comfort and swankiness is obvious from the thick leather thrones in the front and rear rows, the its standard air suspension completes the experience by turning the road to velvet. And the optional E-Active Body Control will even lean the car into corners to help you avoid spilling any of your champagne cocktail—which you are enjoying in the comfort of the available power-adjustable, reclining rear seats with their heated massage function. The S-class does a brilliant job of making the good life real. Where This Vehicle RanksWhat's New for 2023?Life in the lavish Mercedes-Benz S-class goes uninterrupted for 2023 with only subtle changes to the available paint and upholstery options. Pricing and Which One to BuyWe think the ultimate luxury item is a powerful engine, so we'd pay extra to have the top-spec 496-hp V-8 and the more prestigious S580 trunk-lid badge. Engine, Transmission, and PerformanceMercedes offers the S-class sedan with either a 429-hp turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six-cylinder engine on the S500 or a 496-hp twin-turbo 4.0-liter V-8 on the S580. Both powertrains are supplemented by a 48-volt hybrid system and pair with a nine-speed automatic transmission and 4Matic all-wheel drive. We've luxuriated in the S-class sedan and put our test equipment on the V-8 model, which delivered impressive acceleration. While every S-class rides on an air suspension, the optional E-Active Body Control has a "curve" function" that subtly leans the car into corners. The S-class can also be equipped with an all-wheel steering system that makes the big-bodied Merc surprisingly easy to maneuver in tight spaces. Fuel Economy and Real-World MPGThe six-cylinder S500 is rated at 21 mpg in the city and 30 mpg on the highway. Stepping up to the V-8-powered S580 drops those estimates to 16 mpg city and 25 highway. We've tested the latter on our 75-mph fuel-economy route, which is part of our extensive testing regimen, where it achieved 32 mpg on the highway beating its EPA estimate by nearly 10 mpg. For more information about the S-class's fuel economy, visit the EPA's website. Interior, Comfort, and CargoInside, the S-class prioritizes screens. Lots of them. The sedan is available with up to five, including a giant center touchscreen and a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster. The latter works in concert with other technology to create a three-dimensional effect, but—thankfully—it can be turned off if you'd prefer the screens have a conventional appearance. There's also an enhanced head-up display that will show navigation directions in augmented reality. Basically, arrows move and turn in real-time to supposedly better assist the driver. The build quality and cabin materials live up to Mercedes' upscale standards, and the sedan provides limousine-like accommodations for all passengers, specifically those riding in the back. The new model's rear-seat area offers slightly increased headroom and legroom, and it can also be equipped with power-adjustable reclining seats that have massage functions and extensive heating elements. Along with being physically coddled, those in the back should be mentally entertained by the optional rear-seat entertainment system that adds two 11.6-inch screens on the front seatbacks as well as the interactive LED interior lighting. Infotainment and ConnectivityA cutting-edge infotainment system has become a hallmark of modern luxury cars, and Mercedes makes good on that with its latest and greatest interface. The sedan's center stack is dominated by a huge 12.8-inch OLED touchscreen that sits portrait-style, but it doesn't come with any sort of touchpad or rotary controller. What it does come with is an enhanced version of Mercedes' MBUX software that features improved voice-command functions and smartphone-esque capability, including facial recognition and fingerprint scanning. Of course, popular staples such as wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and wireless charging are standard. It looks great and has many features but is complicated with multiple screen touches required to access some of the functions. The S-class sedan also has a standard Burmester 3D sound system, but a more powerful Burmester 4D stereo is available, too. Safety and Driver-Assistance FeaturesEvery four-door S-class comes with an array of standard driver-assistance technology, including the ability to park itself and even take preventative measures to protect passengers when it detects an imminent collision. The sedan is also available with innovative features that include rear-seat airbags and an active suspension that will lift the car up to reduce the severity of damage during a collision. For more information about the S-class's crash-test results, visit the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) websites. Key safety features include:
Warranty and Maintenance CoverageMercedes has surprisingly mediocre warranty coverage compared with the protection that's offered by some other luxury brands. For example, Genesis offers a significantly longer limited and powertrain warranty. BMW and Jaguar also have some of the best complimentary maintenance in the biz.
