Pros Cons of Mercedes-Maybach S-Class

Pros

  • Still One Of The Best Cars On The Planet
  • Loaded With Tech And Features
  • Excellent Space And Comfort

Cons

  • No Amg Package For Locally Assembled Models
  • No 4Matic Awd For Diesel Variants
  • Locally Assembled S Class Gets A De-Tuned Diesel Engine

Verdict

The new-gen Mercedes-Benz S-Class is a huge step up and even the locally assembled India-spec flagship sedan is not skimmed-off. It now gets new headlamps with individual modules which have million pixels inside that in combination with multi-beam LED headlamps along with ultra-range high beam offers a 650 metre of illumination. The S-Class has always been an elegant sedan and looks classy, no matter what generation it belongs to.

Pros Cons of Mercedes-Benz S-Class

Pros

  • The S-Class plug-in hybrid in India delivers a combined 435 bhp and 680 Nm of powertrain output.
  • Safety gets a serious boost with an advanced safety suite that packs 15 airbags as standard.
  • The 22kWh battery pack provides a fuel-saving electric-only driving range of up to 115 km per charge.
  • The upgraded cabin features a 13.1-inch touchscreen paired with dual wireless controllers for passengers.
  • An ultra-premium 31-speaker Burmester surround sound system is built directly into the new limousine package.

Cons

  • The price starts at a whopping Rs 2.20 Crore and goes all the way up to Rs 2.38 Crore.
  • Despite opening bookings immediately, deliveries only commence in Q4 of 2026.
  • The plug-in hybrid model is offered exclusively with a Rear-Wheel Drive layout.

Verdict

On paper, the new Mercedes-Benz S-Class plug-in hybrid looks like an absolute masterstroke for the Indian luxury market. By marrying a silky-smooth 3.0-litre straight-six with a substantial electric battery, Mercedes is promising the holy grail of flagship motoring. Which is zero-emission city commuting alongside uncompromised, long-distance highway range. Add to that the unprecedented safety shield of 15 airbags and the cutting-edge MB.OS tech, and it looks poised to set a whole new benchmark.

However, the real test will be on the tarmac. We still need to see how seamlessly the complex hybrid powertrain behaves in bumper-to-bumper gridlock and how beautifully the standard AIRMATIC suspension handles the added weight of the 22kWh battery pack. It is an engineering marvel on the spec sheet, but we will reserve our final judgment until we get the keys for a comprehensive road test.
