Mercedes-Benz invented the motor car – it was Carl Benz's invention in 1886 that led the way to the machines we see on the road today, and 140 years later, the company is still leading the pack. The new S-Class is more of an update than a reinvention, but it's sleeker than ever and, of course, features the company's best tech on board.
Revealed for the first time on 29 January 2026, the new version features a bigger front grill and new twin-star digital headlights. Perhaps the coolest addition though is an optional illuminated star badge to ensure that classic S-Class face is visible, even in the dark.
