Mercedes-Benz S-Class Leasing

he S-Class is a 4-door saloon, but it’s a pretty big one, so storage and practicality are good, if not quite hitting the heights of a large SUV or estate car like the Range Rover. The boot can hold a decent 550 litres of luggage, which is more than key rival the Audi A8 can manage, and accessing it is very easy thanks to a hands-free power-operated bootlid. Finally, there’s oodles of storage space for odds and ends, with a large box under the central armrest, hefty cupholders and generously proportioned door bins.

Just because the S-Class is aimed at wealthy clientele, that doesn’t mean running costs haven’t been taken into consideration by Mercedes. The smooth S350d diesel will return just over 40mpg in typical use, while the S400d hovers around the 37- or 38mpg park. The S500 petrol is unsurprisingly thirstier, but driven gently can still hit a reasonable 32- to 34mpg. If you really want to minimise your running costs when leasing a Mercedes S-Class, it’s worth holding out for the soon-to-be-launched petrol-electric plug-in hybrid.

Specific reliability data on the S-Class is sparse, as relatively few are made, but as the flagship of Mercedes’ range, it’s put together with absolute focus on durability, quality and dependability, so there should be no worries here.

The S-Class has a 550-litre boot capacity, which is useful when you consider it’s often used as a VIP airport or hotel shuttle and therefore needs to carry a large suitcase or 3 with ease.

Technically just one (AMG Line), but the Premium, Premium Executive, Premium Plus and Premium Plus Executive equipment packs effectively serve as trim levels.

Yes, all models of S-Class come with a sophisticated parking-assistance system that will scan a potential parking space to make sure the car will fit, and then guide you into it automatically.

Not as practical as luxury SUVs like the Range Rover or Mercedes GLS, but reasonably useful all the same thanks to its 550-litre boot capacity and extensive cabin storage.

The S-Class has built up an enviable reputation and rock-solid brand image over the years, and Mercedes works hard to ensure each generation can live up to the name. It offers the best of everything, without compromise.
