Even before you step inside, the S550 mesmerizes — from the V-shaped trunk lid, to flared wheel arches and LED side marker lamps, to the iconic hood ornament. And throughout the cabin, furnishings like ambient lighting and Burl Walnut wood trim set an enchanting tone. But it's under the hood where the S550 truly dazzles. With a 382-horsepower V-8 powerplant paired with a seamlessly smooth 7-speed automatic transmission, it doesn't just move down the road, it devours it.

No luxury sedan can touch the S600. Why?
