• Pros & Cons

  Pros, Cons

  Pros	Has a highly luxurious cabin Looks Macho Sufficiently Capable off the road	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	Expensive to buy and maintain	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.
