Mercedes S class W220 1998 - 2005 - Used vehicle, experience
Mercedes S Class W220 Experience
In the second half of 1998, the fifth-generation Mercedes S W220 with a sporty design and lighter body replaced its predecessor, the W140, which was often criticized for its design and heavy weight. It is available in normal and extended versions in the next S 320, S 430 and S 500 engines. In 1999, the S 320 CDI and S 55 AMG and S 600 diesels were launched. Since 2000, the 8-cylinder S400 diesel engine has also been available.
The Mercedes S-Class W220 was redesigned in 2002 - the exterior changes were minor - the headlights, spoiler and new wheel design were changed. The redesign is mainly based on the interior of the Mercedes S-Class - a navigation system, a larger screen and better build quality are available. The safety of the Mercedes S-Class has been enhanced by the first PRE SAFE system that adjusts seats and seat belts when using sensors on ABS i ESP systems detect the possibility of collisions. A 6 or 8 cylinder all-wheel drive engine known as 4 MATIC is also available.
The interior of the Mercedes S class W220 is characterized by luxury and quality materials. Thanks to the larger wheelbase (2965 mm), there is progress on the rear seats as well. If some people think that this is not enough for them, they have a longer version to choose from (3085 mm). The boot volume is 500 liters. Mercedes has made sure that the comfort and relaxation of the driver is ensured on longer journeys. Although the chassis is soft, the car's handling is good and at higher speeds, the steering is very precise.
The choice of engines is large and ranges from entry level engines: 2.8 all the way to V12 5.5 engines in the S600L version. The best-selling is a six-cylinder 3.2 diesel engine that offers economical driving. If you are not interested in economy, but engine power, you can choose S55 AMG with V8 engine and 500 hp or S63 AMG with V12 engine and 612 hp.
