Never mind that it's smaller, lighter and more efficient than the last generation S-Class, the part that's fun is trying to discover all of its special features. Two hours perusing the owners manual is all it took to intuitively master the multitude of switches, buttons and controls on our test S500. OUTSIDE -The new S-Class looks smaller and slimmer than before. It's still classified by the EPA as a large car, but the wheelbase and overall length are both over two inches shorter than the previous model, and it's 1.3 inches narrower. The shorter overhangs and a lower beltline contribute to this effect. Softened contours, gently sculpted hood line and sweeping headlights give it a sleek coupe-like appearance in an efficient four-door package. Attention to aerodynamics paid off in a low 0.27 coefficient of drag. Mercedes offers its "designo" trim series with most of its model lines, and the S-Class is the latest to receive this treatment. With the S-Class, adding the package gives the choice of either Espresso or Silver paint, along with a host of interior features. INSIDE -The front and rear seats are redesigned and covered in rich "Nappa" leather upholstery. The padding is firm (a Mercedes trademark), but overall, very supportive. On long trips, a Mercedes leaves the driver almost refreshed. The dashboard is filled with buttons to operate various gadgets and gizmos, with a small TV-like screen in the center that displays the navigation system operated from satellites. It also displays the audio and built-in telephone prompts. The whole integrated system is called COMAND (Cockpit Management and Data). The standard dual zone climate control system includes exterior sensors to monitor various weather conditions, while a superb Bose-brand sound system can be packaged with an optional trunk-mounted six-disc CD changer. Heated, 14-way power front seats are standard, as is cruise control, power tilt/telescoping steering column, variable speed wipers, auto-dimming rearview mirrors and a sliding/pop-up glass sunroof. ON THE ROAD -The latest S-Class is powered by a new modular V8. The S430 uses a 4.3 liter version, while the S500 offers up 5.0 liters. Both use a single camshaft on each cylinder head, along with three valves per cylinder. Depending on engine load, two plugs fire with a short time gap, at the same time alternating between the two for better combustion efficiencies and less noise. The S500 has 302 horsepower, which is down a bit from the last version, and 339 pound-feet of torque. It launches off-line quite well and gives impressive 0-60 mph times. Passing power is even better, with plenty of pull left well after the speed limit has been exceeded. Mated to this engine is a five-speed automatic transmission that "learns" the piloting patterns of its driver, and a Winter/Sport button gives the driver the choice of more traction on slippery roads or sport shift points. Traction control is standard. BEHIND THE WHEEL -The unit body platform of the new S-Class is quieter and stiffer than the version it replaced, and extensive use of aluminum parts has trimmed 500 pounds off the car. The four-wheel independent suspension uses what Mercedes calls "AIRmatic," an air-ride and active damping system that keeps the car level at all times. To maintain directional stability, the company has added an Electronic Stability Program (ESP). This system uses special sensors to detect a slide, then makes adjustments to the anti-lock braking system (ABS) and the traction control system to bring the car back under control. The system doesn't eliminate accidents, but it helps the driver avoid potential problems. A new rack-and-pinion steering system replaces the old model's recirculating-ball setup to give a lighter, more accurate feel. Four-wheel, vented disc brakes (cross-drilled in front) are standard |

2014 Mercedes-Benz E-Class lineup shows its freshened face
Mon, 14 Jan 2013Mercedes-Benz showed us its redesigned 2014 E-Class more than a month ago, but the Detroit Auto Show finally gave us a chance to see the full family of mid-size luxury cars and wagons in the flesh. Dieter Zetsche introduced the cars, including sedan, coupe, convertible and station wagon, on stage showing the stylish new design direction.
The wagon and sedan versions (shown as the E400 Hybrid above) will go on sale this spring, while the coupe and cabriolet will hit showrooms over the summer. Check our new gallery of live shots for the entire 2014 E-Class lineup, as well as the previously released press release below.
Volvo S60 Polestar concept plays in the snow with Mercedes C63 AMG
Thu, 24 Jan 2013Chris Harris took to a snowy stretch of tarmac to get a fingertips-on-the-wheel feel of the Volvo S60 Polestar concept. Harris says the turbocharged sedan with 508 horsepower and 424 pound-feet of torque - and a manual transmission - is "a study to see if Volvo can get back into the fast-car market." The Polestar S60 concept, one of which was already purchased for $300,000 by a private buyer, is still making the publicity rounds because even Volvo's Chinese owners realize that, as Harris says, "Volvo sold more cars because it made fast cars" like the old 850 T5 Wagon that stormed the British Touring Car Championship in the 1990s.
For reference, Harris compares the blue wonder to the Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG and its 487 hp and 442 lb-ft. The question is, were Volvo to get the price of a production version of the S60 Polestar to climb way down from its 200,000-pound sticker, could it be worthy competition to the established giants?
You can watch Harris divine the answer via a lot of drifting through the snow and a drag race in the video below.
Edmunds ranks the best used cars for 2013
Sun, 15 Sep 2013When people ask us what car we would recommend for them, it's usually not easy to answer. To make a useful recommendation we must consider which of the numerous vehicle segments fits their needs best, and then choose one of the many vehicles offered in each segment. For some people, new cars don't meet their expectations of value, because they lose so much of it the moment they are purchased and driven off the dealer lot. For them, there's always the used-car market, where great deals can be found, but cars' histories of reliability and maintenance records - and perhaps that Certified Pre-Owned warranty - become ever-important factors playing into purchase choice.
To help out, Edmunds has done us the favor of assembling a list of the best used vehicles money can buy, covering model years 2006-2011, according to what it considers the most important criteria when shopping for used autos: reliability, safety, value and availability. That means unreliable, unsafe, super-expensive or limited-edition models don't appear on the list, but instead cars from each segment that are more likely to satisfy the general population.
There are some real goodies on the list, including but not limited to vehicles such as the capable Honda Fit, the cultish Honda Accord coupe (which can be had with a 240-horsepower V6 and a six-speed manual transmission some years), and the powerful Chevrolet Corvette. While Edmunds' choice of the Volvo C70 for best used convertible baffled us at first (not that it's a bad car), it redeemed itself by stating that the Mazda MX-5 still is an unofficial top choice if you don't require more than two seats.
