We've told you about the Mercedes-Benz S-Class Cabriolet a while back and well the company has finally unveiled the car. Set to make its debut at the 2015 Frankfurt Motor Show, Mercedes-Benz describes this car as the 'most beautiful and exclusive S-Class cars of all time'
Of course you can see a lot of similarity between this one and the Coupe but for the fact that this one has a retractable three-layer acoustic soft top which is available in black, dark blue, beige and dark red. Despite its relatively large size, the roof can be opened or closed in approximately 20 seconds at speeds up to 60 km/h.
The cabin of the car is a familiar one too and the inside of the car is very similar to the one we saw in the coupe but there are some changes. The S-Class Cabriolet comes with an all-new THERMOTRONIC intelligent climate control system which promises to keep occupants comfortable regardless of whether the roof is opened or closed.
Mercedes-Benz also offers an extensive assortment of upholstery choices including leather, nappa leather and designo Exclusive nappa leather. And then there are the sheer options that are available on the car. The car can be equipped with a Warmth Comfort package which includes heated seats, heated armrests and a heated multifunction steering wheel. Customers can also order an AIR-BALANCE package which can waft a variety of fragrances into the cabin. Then there is also the option of AIRCAP automatic wind protection system or the familiar AIRSCARF neck-level heating system.
And then we come to the engines. Powering the entry-level S500 Cabrio is 4.7-litre twin-turbo V8 that develops 448bhp and a massive 700 Nm of torque. If you've known Mercedes-Benz; it's always willing to give buyers an option of adding more power and hence there is also the S63 AMG or S63 AMG 4MATIC Cabrio on offer. It gets the 5.5-litre, twin turbo V8 engine that churns 576bhp. All the power allows the all-wheel drive variant to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 3.9 seconds before hitting an electronically-limited top speed of 250 km/h.
Considering that the company has expanded its product portfolio in India, it will get the S-Class Cabriolet to India probably next year and the Delhi Auto Expo will be a good platform for them to showcase it in India.
