Mercedes-Benz S560 2018 | Full Review | with Steve Hammes | TestDriveNow

[@zachg9065]

The S Class has always been the king. The Best or Nothing

[@johnakotia5551]

Splendid

[@marcelpatel9017]

Any company that says their the best is far from that mark by a longshot.

[@GuestYouTubeUser]

Rolls Royce and the Maybach is better. Bentley is a joke! Lol

[@kdm313]

Finally a Auto journalist who understands how special the Magic Sky Roof is. Thank You

[@mikealanzo]

I own a 2005 S65 AMG, the comfort to this day, 13 years later, beats the crap out of any 2018YM Bimmer, Audi, RR etc etc you can think of!

[@shookone568]

This color scheme for the interior is just sublime. Beautiful.

[@InvestBetter.]

The S-Class is for winners only If you choose a Maybach or Bentley over this, your ego got the better of you You can't have a conversation about the best cars in the world without including The S-Class The 2022 model has fallen behind the W222 in a couple of areas. This still sets the standard.

[@esthetics4512]

💯💯

[@cl3883]

He does the best car reviews on KZbin. Short simple & to the point but thorough. He shows the exterior & interior also showing how the car looks as it drives down the road especially the BACK of the car the rear of the car is how you really distinguish what model it is idk why other car reviews always focus on the front.

[@stevehammes]

I appreciate that!

[@trommelbiel]

My next car. I cannot wait to lay my hands on one. Retiring my E-class soon.

[@karljacobson7811]

Lol, me too. I drive an E350 and my next one is the S550 or S560.

[@stans2942]

@@karljacobson7811 Would you recommend buying new or used S class?

Stan S go with a used one.

[@underachv]

Or go e63

[@naruto4thhokage100]

​@@karljacobson7811 same, I'm in the exact same shoes, gonna sell my e350 now

[@geosh10]

Stress melts away until that lease payment comes due! Great review!

[@93455Driver]

geosh10 Or as the warranty expiration approaches.

[@instasingingvids3529]

geosh10 or when the gadgets start to quit

[@MugatuJag]

If you were buying one of these, or leasing one of these, most likely you’re not going to worry about that lease payment every month. And so many as class owners do like, two-year leases, or trade in their lease early. They also save money by paying their lease upfront outright in cash or on their AMEX lmao

[@chibage]

Mature, intelligent and smart commentary. This commentary dove tails with the “classiness” of an S550

[@stevehammes]

Thanks!

[@Zero_316]

My oh My Steve. Now I have to work overtime to get one :) What a ride.

[@hemingsgarage]

These S-Class updates made me excited about what Mercedes will do for the S Class Coupe.

[@iamhunkidori]

RIP S-class coupe

[@suhailns3688]

This car deserve every dollar of 140.000$ , great review man I love your videos

[@stevehammes]

Thanks!

[@Safari99hiker]

TestDriveNow Reviews by Auto Critic Steve Hammes That's why 80 percent of head of state drive or driven s class or s gaurd. The best or nothing.

[@wbheald]

Today I picked up a 2019 560. Magnetite/ with your same interior. It is worth twice the E350 that I was driving. Super duper sedan.

[@stevehammes]

Lucky you!

[@twilson1973]

Nice review. Even at $140K the S 560 is a bargain when you consider that the smooth ride, luxury, and tech tech features the car has. It isn’t that far from the RR Ghost and Flying Spur for about half the price.

[@jamesr4276]

Love the Ruby Black color - a very subtle burgundy best seen in daylight.

[@WellnessWise92]

Yet people still think that the 7series and the A8 are in the same category with the Benz 😂😂😊

[@mastermoney9110]

Lexus LS500 is superior to this new piece of shit. FACT no debate.

[@aidenp5768]

They are in the same it’s that the Benz puts more effort like BMW and Audi lack the colors look at the Benz it’s nothing different to the 7 only the colors on the steering wheel dash 2 tone colors basically around but comfort is the same and quality on BMW is definitely better than the S class. Plus BMW has Rolls Royce and Rolls Royce isn’t just a brand Rolls Royce is created by BMW and quality comes from BMW fact * engine chassis seats are BMW. Think of Rolls Royce as a M car but for Luxury basically and M and Rolls Royce are inside BMW not outside like it is with Audi and VW. Rolls Royce and Mini are now BMWs problem.

[@76carmel]

It’s based on the size of the vehicle... the large flagship executive sedan. The 7-Series and A8 are in the same category as the S-Class.

[@ironworkerwella1]

lmao Toyota = Lexus Sclass Benz is in a class by itself

[@matejvukovic3108]

Yes,they are in the same category,and new a8 is even better im some levels. 😎

[@RealtimeReviews613]

Yet another great review steve, youre blessed to drive this and this to be your job

[@stevehammes]

For sure! Thanks!

[@trommelbiel]

I need to change my E class ASAP and get this S-class.

[@williebender2561]

I’d still get a Bentley or Rolls Royce if I had the money. But for Mercedes-Benz to build a bonafide competitor to those cars for 100k cheaper is flat out amazing. The best or nothing

[@nikalasrealistius4455]

mercedes is more reliable, bentley and roys is much much worst

[@jorgschroeder7511]

After this review ,I am trading my Lexus .I love interior piano black and white wood, Two tone Leather ,24 speakers etc -Great review .

[@paulht3251]

Jorg Schroeder if you keep your cars for awhile I’d keep The Lexus. Just more dependable after three years.

[@highwaystar3780]

This car is Trash!

[@trommelbiel]

great review. short and to the point.

[@stevehammes]

Glad you liked it!

[@Thomasdarya]

I’m picking this up on April 22 White on beige I can’t wait 🙌🏻

[@GabrielOlakunle-pm2iy]

Explicit and good video. I am encourage to buy the 2020 Mercedes s560

[@golfbuddy1969]

Pure class...but not crazy about the color scheme - black striped trim with brown and beige...but to each his own.

[@ZestyLemonBoi]

Brilliant!

Great review!

[@simransingh3643]

What the interior option is called ?? (Colour of interiors)

[@MusicLuv80]

When you buy one of these, do you pick up from the lot or do you wait couple of month to get your car? Not that I can buy this car but just curious.

Ive been an Audi man....until I saw this interior... Stunning!!!

[@goergeibrahim6417]

Amazing

[@jordansmith9673]

My dream car 😍😍😍

[@hamzaismail328]

Gorgeous vehicle

[@crxracer805]

I want 2 of them. One for everyday driving and one for the weekend.

[@crxracer805]

Why did I say this? 😆

[@davidhamilton506]

I still contend that the lines of the 2017 S550, in that stunning Emerald Green metallic, with the beige and brown interior was more appealing. Even the steering wheel, the four horizontal bar grille, and under grille apron looked better style wise, imo. You can check this model out, uploaded by via Super Car Tube on You Tube...

[@93455Driver]

Love the engineering, the comfort and looks. I am not enjoying the gauge cluster display - some how not as integrated as Audi's new tech.

[@chefbeefsalsa2938]

Man sick car!

[@OMGz1122]

I have got to agree with you that some "luxury" car makers use the term too loosely.......Acura

[@Emanual0607]

Fantastic!

[@marcelpatel9017]

Nice car but after a couple of years it'll be worth peanuts. Benz likes to put a lot of tech in a car but without testing it for reliability. Lexus LS 500 runs circles around this.

[@xxthehuskycaboosexx]

This is the car to buy to let the world know that you’ve made it!

[@kokwah5517]

Right! 100% agreed!! I am 52 and gonna start a bness in few months, hope it would be successful and own this S560 lwb. To let All my shithole friends, relatives, and colleague's that you guys are suck as ever!

[@TheTmat007]

Looks nice. But I think I might go for the S63 version.

[@bm9074]

Outstanding

[@trinisuprazee]

So now that these are sub 40K for 50K miles how are these used? How is the v6 version that's what i'm interested in

[@cerebralmindgame9818]

If I could ever afford this car, this is the colorway and options list that I'd prefer but in the longer stretched wheelbase version.

[@venom_vorce4847]

Hi Steve, i bought an s560 2018 also, but i dont know why it doesnt do the magic sky control is there an extra button or how wo do you control it. And is this an option from the factory which you had to order, thx for the answer🙏

[@michaelcorbin3720]

Need one First stacking up on asset then benzo😎

[@karljacobson7811]

Yes, my next car!

[@awr7032]

What colour of the exterior and interior?

[@limpunsing224]

The S Class remains the benchmark of luxury sedan IMO

[@souissi1]

The best car in the world

[@itmustbelove08]

Like the music in the background. Not so distracting where I can’t hear you but just loud enough to make me notice. Will this be normal or are you playing with it based on the vehicle/tone of the video itself?

[@stevehammes]

Good question. Just trying to find the right balance.

[@itmustbelove08]

TestDriveNow Reviews by Auto Critic Steve Hammes I applaud and appreciate your efforts. My apologies I meant to add excellent review as always.

[@stevehammes]

Thanks, Craig!

[@victorashul]

ABOUT THE TRANSMITION : THE NEW LEXUS LS HAS THE BEST AUTOMATIC 10-SPEED TRANSMITION

[@PCUBED09]

only downside I can think of is the 'old person' ideal that comes with s class sedans. I would do the s63 coupe or an e63s sedan but can't see many young people driving this imo

[@stevejohnson4105]

Athletes are young and they drive s 5's what world you live in get you a Lexus that's what girls drive S5 only for the big boys old and young

[@jjayallan]

Please review the S63

[@stevehammes]

I've got an S65 coming in July.

[@digitalmusicalart3494]

This car is way larger in person.

[@76carmel]

The ultimate flagship luxury car, the ultimate Mercedes. Now, how are we gonna get $140k 💰to get one? 🤔 I think this is the Mercedes that Janis Joplin sang about.

[@mitchlu]

does the phrase "drug money" ring a bell?

[@76carmel]

mitchlu Uh... legally 😆

[@mastermoney9110]

Lexus LS500 is superior.

[@76carmel]

Speaking about the Lexus LS (both regular or hybrid version), when will Steve test it?

[@InspirationDose]

Changes to the exterior are not noticeable s550 and this s560 look the same. Front bumper and tail lights look the same 🙄 and the C-class, E-class and S-class LOOK THE SAME. Very boring, these Mercedes designers have gotten too lazy lately and everything looks the same smh.

[@aspietoo]

... and you've stumbled on their recipe of slow change and cross product identity as a strength

[@anthonycooper598]

Amazing it's 2022 four years later, and this vehicle is now 59,000.00 with 21K miles on sale. 0 down and 800.00 payments for 84 months. Loaded like the model shown but with two-wheel drive. 130,000.00 vehicle for this price and miles. 70,000.00 saved just by waiting. The car market is crazy, people are buying cars for 40 to 60 thousand dollars with 60 to 90 thousand miles. SUVs because they are popular. Now electric cars are available and that market is exploding. 40-100 k for them. Well after watching this video and finding my S 560 loaded like the video. Guess where I'd spend my money? follow the mast group over the ledge if you want. But when I'm tired of driving I'll be in the back seat of the S-560. Enough said. Time shows us the reality of our thinking. 9/10/22

[@stevehammes]

Yup. My bad.

[@omarcarnegie346]

Is it better than the bmw 760 li ?

[@aidenp5768]

BMW beats the S class by... Performance Looks Quality Price Tech Mercedes beats BMW by... Color options Comfort Advertisement People fall for Mercedes advertising no one never knows but I can feel it in videos that Mercedes has payed KZbin channels to do so BMW is super natural all facts bro.

[@GodSpeed1105]

No it would be a Rolls Royce

[@argentumboyle249]

If god's car broke down on the road, this would ne the car too

[@disgracedrobertkelly898]

These are affordable now at $47,000 I even saw one for $36,000 in Texas. It makes no sense to spend $140k for a s-class when it depreciates in value every year, it's best to wait 3-5years for it to lose value then go and buy it, that's the only smart way. I have a 2015 mercedes benz s550 I only paid $35,000 for it with 67k miles on it now I see they redesigned the s-class and replaced the s550 and s560 models with the s580, so I'll wait until 2027 before I trade my s-class in and upgrade to the s580.

Cheesy music, interior is too purse looking. But I love the way it looks:-)

[@tgwcl6194]

Simply buy second hand. Huge depreciation!!!!

[@TonyTube407]

Seems like an odd complaint, but I cannot STAND cars that use the cruise control to slow the vehicle down in a curve. If I've set the CC for a particular speed and there's no slower-moving vehicles ahead of me, then I want my speedometer to match the speed I have set, period. :-(

[@justinhamill954]

The headlights got uglier! They were beautiful before.

[@trommelbiel]

BMW and Audi make too much noise but only in theory. Mercedes is King. You cant topple the king. BMW is like the President. Audi is the foreign minister.

[@kingartison]

If I were ever a business man who got promoted and had money to spend on a car I think I’m the only one who wouldn’t buy some obvious shit I’d buy a Morgan aero or a spyker shit maybe even a Holden SS lol throw people off and have it smelling like black ice and pancakes

I have Asthma and COPD. No thank you on fragrances. WHAT happens when all of those electronic safety features start to fail!

[@stevehammes]

Good news: The S-Class is particularly kind to allergy sufferers Like all Mercedes-Benz model series, the S-Class carries the seal of the European Center for Allergy Research Foundation (ECARF). The seal confirms that the values measured inside the vehicle meet the Foundation's stringent requirements, and that this has been confirmed in tests. A new testing procedure developed by Mercedes-Benz, for which a patent application has been filed, has shown that even the minutest of allergenic particles are trapped by the activated charcoal filter in the vehicle.

[@dennispolyblank8428]

Thanks

[@scrippslarry]

TestDriveNow Reviews by Auto Critic Steve Hammes I can vouch for the activated charcoal filters. They have had them in their car for years and I completely avoid symptoms in my car and always have issues in other peoples cars on longer drives.

In April 20 22 I test drove a 2019 Mercedes best 560 and I’m sorry to say that I felt every bump crack and other imperfection on the road so I don’t know what is the hype about its great suspension. It honestly did not feel any different from my existing 2018 Toyota Camry, in terms of the smoothness of the ride on those road imperfections.
