Mercedes S350 CDI
The Mercedes S350 CDI options list alone gives some idea of how far this car advances the art of the luxury limousine. You can choose suspension that uses cameras to read the road ahead and adjust its settings to absorb every bump. In long-wheelbase versions you can specify a front and rear seat that recline and combine to create the closest thing to a bed that crash legislation will allow.…
Mercedes S350 CDI
The Mercedes S350 CDI options list alone gives some idea of how far this car advances the art of the luxury limousine. You can choose suspension that uses cameras to read the road ahead and adjust its settings to absorb every bump. In long-wheelbase versions you can specify a front and rear seat that recline and combine to create the closest thing to a bed that crash legislation will allow. There are seats that will simulate a hot-stone massage and ones that allow you to warm your kidneys and cool your backside at the same time. Or vice versa.
Even the armrests are heated. A fragrance dispenser hasn’t been news since the days of the dreaded Feu Orange, but the big Benz has one whose perfumed molecules are claimed to be too big to cling to your clothes. It’s almost disappointing when you turn on the cruise control that little mechanical hands don’t pop out of the pedals and give your brogues a quick polish.
Mercedes S350 CDI Most dramatic of all the options is the Burmester 3D surround-sound music system. It pumps the power of the standard system up from 100W to 1,540W and blasts it through 24 speakers spread around the interior of the car, from the footwells to the headlining.
But a luxury car cannot be defined by the length of its equipment list, and, despite all the technical wizardry, Mercedes has actually played quite safe with the new S-class. Although it is correct to consider it a new car, it has retained the previous generation’s wheelbase. At launch there will be a choice of three engines — one petrol, one diesel and one petrol hybrid, with seven-speed automatic transmission for all. It will be next year before there’s a diesel hybrid or AMG version and the year after that before new nine-speed gearboxes are available.
The Mercedes S350 CDI interior has taken a big step forwards with TFT (thin-film transistor) dials and a 12.3in central screen that displays the Comand operating system. It’s unquestionably more advanced than anything else on the market but I’m not sure that it’s an improvement. Comand was invented to reduce dashboard clutter while maintaining ease of use, but the S-class now requires so many submenus to allow you, for example, to control your air ioniser or change the backdrop instrument lighting that it appears close to capacity.
If, for instance, you have navigation instructions on the screen and want to select the next music track on your playlist, it requires a minimum of three operations. I’d rather just press a button.
Even so, reputations among cars such as this are not built on ergonomic efficiency. The twin towers of luxury car capability are ride and refinement, and Mercedes’ ability to make a car quieter and more comfortable best explains how it came to be the class leader more than 20 years ago and has stayed there since. On its deathbed the old S-class still rode better than any Audi, Jaguar or BMW, and this new one has taken the next step. Even if you don’t option in the road-reading cameras, the S-class rides like nothing this side of a Rolls-Royce.
All you need do is watch how the car in front bobs over each imperfection and wait to see how the S-class copes. Time and again you’ll think you missed the obstacle altogether until you realise that somewhere between the tyres and your body it was soaked up by the Mercedes’ extraordinary suspension. As for refinement, the company states that it is simply the most aerodynamically efficient and quietest car in the sector; after many hours at the wheel, I have no reason to doubt it.
It must also be the safest. Collision and lane-keeping alerts are nothing new in Mercedes S350 CDI, but the S-class has been given a new suite of safety armour. Measures include rear seatbelts that are airbags in disguise and rear-facing cameras that can tell if you’re about to be rear-ended and will tighten your belts and jam on the brakes before impact. The car can even keep a lookout as you
