2024 Mercedes-Benz S450d "BEST S CLASS EVER?!" // REVIEW on AUTOBAHN

[@matejgrim]

The most impressive thing to me is that this car cruises at 200km/h reving 2000rpm. In most cars you would have to hold near full throttle, rev 5000 and get a ton of noise at that speed. Truly a royal-like experience...

[@IvanM-o3o]

As he said in the video, the Merc has 9 gears, so thats your answer why it cruises at that speed at low revs.

[@Guuggel]

Being diesel also helps

[@horvathr95]

I would say its more like 2300rpm but still impressive. Sorry for the nitpicking

[@Brokeniggashateme]

Diesel automobiles tend to have very low RPMS compared to gas engines due to the more torque they provide . Most of them top out at 5k Rpm’s

[@1GTASANANDREASCJ]

It's also the same on a BMW X3M Competition. At 200km/h, it's around 2300rpm which is crazy for a petrol engine.

[@e39lwd]

Green is seriously underrated and underused in the car world. Dark green + Cognac interior is where it's at for me.

[@oommenthms2728]

*Match Made in Heaven* ❤️‍🔥

[@ataipacquiao5713]

Gorgeous car. Definitely, my dream! Super smooth, silent, good performance, efficient!

[@Squilliam-Fancyson]

this car makes much more sense than the EQS and actually looks good

[@SwiftHDX]

I wouldn't say it looks good, but you're right about it making much more sense than the EQS, and depite not being good looking, it still looks miles better.

[@AA-vr8ez]

@@SwiftHDXthe S class is a phenomenal looking vehicle.

[@SwiftHDX]

@@AA-vr8ez I beg to differ. The W222 looked great, particularly the facelift. The W221 was elegant as a luxury limousine should be. Those designs are truly phenomenal. The W223 doesn't do it on any level in comparison to its predecessors. It looks aggressive, ghastly with strange design details front and rear, specifically the weird light shapes which make no sense in the context of the rest of the design and the oversized sticking out grill which looks like it could suck in a football pitch in one go and just had botched plastic surgery with the way it extends forwards. It's not just Mercedes though, BMW has completely lost the plot with the G70. Both companies have forgotten what proper proportions are, but BMW takes Mercedes' mistakes to a whole other level with the new 7 and its ridiculous looking light-up grill surrounds. That car has so many offensive design choices, I'm surprised it even got the green light from BMW executives.

[@martinsv9183]

@@SwiftHDX I think it looks ok. A bit aggressive front with no weird lights or grille. Like it should be. Classic receipt. Even though nothing special. I would change the rear lights though. Doesnt fit a big car. Old one was better. There's no weird parts in the design otherwise. You have to be thankful for that nowadays. I dont like the big focus on screens in the interior though. Looks tacky and is always an ergonimic disaster.

[@Tuck31r]

@@SwiftHDX I agree but I think the front is not bad at all , I would put this new front to the predecessor

[@golfdriver18]

How this color looks in the sun, beautiful

[@kebanetseRari]

emerald green.

[@playstation1331]

inline diesel , just like the good old days, I LOVE IT

[@GOINFINITI]

Its the best combo for sure- huge limo with a nice big diesel engine. Always drove that config :)

[@AlexRemus]

Same goes for SUVs. A strong diesel + a big practical, comfortable car is match made in heaven (for now).

[@Receptor91]

This engine in the E class ❤

[@6208ccm]

😍😍

[@bassplayboy7823]

e400d with full air suspension

[@naftyloescher]

I actually did my Bachelors Thesis at Mercedes-Benz Untertürkheim working on the LDS coating in this OM656. Very good engine and it will last for sure.

[@doctorleitz4795]

That’s good to know. I’ve owned an E400d 4 Matic wagon for 4 years now. Had it since new. Best car I’ve ever had. What an engine, although mine is obviously without the 27hp assistance found in the S450d. I’ve never felt short of power or torque, and it will worry some sports cars on the autobahn.

[@user-cw1fp3xb6b]

I have also had the E400d wagon for the last 4 years in UK. Stage 1 tune to 400hp and 800Nm! Tremendous family car. Taken it to northern Scotland, Spain, Portugal and through all the countries to get to Poland with over half a ton of aid for Ukraine 2 years ago. Need to decide if I will keep it or get another. Maybe the GLE? Same engine though! 400d/450d.

[@shitsugane]

It's beautiful. The sound of the doors...the color...

[@darknnessrealm]

The next engine is in this 1-liter inline 1 . Mercedes tries to make us hate their cars.

[@mediumTierGod]

Yes but with 900hp

[@nicofink5678]

[@d.s.2868]

The best S Class is always the S600L W140

[@XDMIIIIIIIII]

Bentley-esque

[@akrs3005]

no

[@dwoolwichpoly9086]

Definitely up there for being the best for sure! For me the shape and technology of the W221 S65 AMG was a sweetspot. W222 got the better updated M279 engine with a better 7 speed gearbox and a tonne more technology. Though the shape never fully grew on me like the W221 did. The W140 was a tank in all aspects and if you are a person who doesn’t need the useful technologies in the more modern vehicles, then its a fantastic choice

[@LilRick96]

​@@dwoolwichpoly9086 the W222 S65 facelift was absolute perfection for me. My dream car. Followed by the W126 560sel then the W140 body style.

[@horvathr95]

I mean that is your preference. If I have to take a guess, its because you grew up in the 90's. I would say though the W126 was a bigger milestone in the S class history. Or the 6.9 W116.

[@martinsamaro]

In fact the best S Class and Mercedes has now a engine that is better than BMW. Well done. Finally.👌💪👍

[@SachaKDrums]

Those art-deco pinstripes in the door handles are boss.

[@agerautimate8272]

The autobahn part is always the best

[@Michu6728]

Pretty sure current 740d has 299hp, not 340

[@Anders_HeymSR30]

Indeed, it is just a relabelled 30d engine

[@Omgiamsotriggered]

Bmw started uplifting their models for no reason other than to sell "prestige". They moved 50i to 60i without a bump in horsepower, same as making the 730d into a 740d with a slight 13 hp boost. Older gen with the same name had more hp than newer models with the same name, really wierd.

[@Jensgerbi]

The same Engine will be available in the E-Class and in the GLC soon. 🤩💯

[@procrastinatingrn3936]

Thats how it is, they reuse the same stuff in most of their cars but charge a premium for the badging

[@mauripekkarinen1]

​@@procrastinatingrn3936 Why would they not use a good engine in other cars as well?

I've tested an e400d 2019, it felt so fast and at the same time so smooth and calm. I think effortless is the right word for that drivetrain. 😍

The electric mandates wont last. People simply aren't buying them. The internal combustion engine can't be replaced.

[@rebelroad401]

We’ll have to buy them when ICE cars are no longer on sale.

[@HansKlopek]

@@rebelroad401 nope. The used car market for internal combustion engines will take off and remain more popular than electric crap. Companies will have no choice but to abandon the electric market. It's already happening in the United States.
