The Mercedes S Class has only been on the market for a short while but with rivals such as the BMW 7-series and Audi A8, the German manufacturer cannot afford to be complacent. Ahead of its launch our spies have caught a prototype shed of almost all of its disguise. Clearly visible are the new front skirt and fog lights, a revised bumper, as well as the new side mirrors. There will also will be a modified layout of the headlights: while the flashers will move to the bottom of the units, LED daylight driving lamps will be fitted to the outer edges of the front lamp units. A slightly re-designed rear bumper and taillights without the coloured “metal” stripes will round off the facelift. Engines are likely to benefit from a bit of emission busting tuning whilst the rumours state the model will be available with both petrol and diesel hybrids by 2010.
With the new E-Class just released with more bells and whistles than one can possibly master during those brief years of actual ownership, Mercedes had to be sure the upcoming 2010 S-Class would live up to its reputation as the ultimate full-sized luxury sedan. Now, thanks to a leak and a scan from a loyal German reader, we have a sneak peek at the brochure for the facelifted S-Class and all that it entails. The litany of technology is there, from Splitview-screen entertainment system, to the parking management assistant with a rear-view camera, to other driver aid tools like Pre-Safe braking, Lane-Departure warning system, LED parking lights and Adaptive Beam Assist. The lineup of engines also remains another long list, though, it seems, the S320 CDI and the S420 CDI have been axed. The S400 Bluehybrid version has already been announced which rates a pretty impressive 7.9 liters/100 km fuel economy. The S400 Bluehybrid features a 3.5 liter V6 engine with 279 hp and 385 Nm of torque developed with the help of a 20 hp electric motor. The new S-Class is expected to arrive in dealer showrooms later this year.
Ну чтоже, пускай ниссановцы порадуются будут теперь говорить что их авто похожа на обновленный мерс S класс! leasantry: Морда класс, сбоку отл! на счет фонарей попных соглашусь, полоски были в тему! Вообщем вживую надо посмареть!
Это мода такая, новая? Ешку сравнивать с Хюндаем, теперь S класс с Теаной. Вы что, мониторите дизайн хюндаев и теан????:shocking: Зачем??? По мне, так просто супер. Оптика задняя у старого, мне наоборот была не очень, на темных еще туда-сюда ( не видно полосок ), а на светлых, полоски для меня, не в тему. Теперь у МБ, весь модельный ряд - coolleasantry:leasantry:leasantry:
