• Pros & Cons

  Pros, Cons

  Pros	It shares its DNA with the Lamborghini Urus - same platform and engine. This 2494 kg SUV can do 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.4 seconds. Can also be used as a daily driver considering its comfortable ride. It looks much more handsome and sharper than the regular Q8.	First Mercedes-Benz Limousine model to get a plug-in hybrid powertrain. Airmatic suspension for exceptional ride and comfort for long travels. Updated MBUX and MB.OS for better in-cabin entertainment, 31-speakers and gets a virtual assistant. The styling updates add more presence while retaining the S-Class elegance. The S450e is the first model to get 15 Airbags. 0-100 in 5.7 seconds, electronically locked top speed of 250 kmph.
  Cons	The exhaust note could have been better. Despite its outstanding screens and interior layout, it appears outdated when compared to other German luxury SUVs. Not as practical as other Audi cars. The 4.0L V8 drinks fuel like a fish.	Low ground clearance can be a concern on Indian roads. A touchscreen-heavy interface can be distracting. Expensive to own, run, and maintain. At over 5.3 metres parking can be a concern in the city.
