Hi Mat here. What is your favourite S-Class ever? Let me know in the comment... And if you haven't already click on my face to check out my personal RUclips channel Matwatsoncars. And pls subscribe to it. Thanks.
The 2013 model S Class and the 2013 CLS to me are the greatest designs ever. I don't think I'll ever see a car with a better design than that. Absolutely stunning.
@@thomas-be3hy that's why he keeps pushing that horrible gear change on the steering wheel and his bias for only automatics despite the fact he's a CAR guy
@@thomas-be3hy a normal person knows how to drive a manual. Also explain the gear changer do NORMAL car people really like it when it's like operating the windshield wiper
@@ChosenMan37 automatics are more popular and desired than manuals, when it comes to sales. Thats why carwow pushes automatics. automatics=more sales and clients. And for the weird shifter I dont have a answer but i guess he prefers it more🤷♂️
4:47 has got to be my favourite S-Class because it just goes in line with the W124 at the time, and these two cars are my favourite Mercedes models to this day.
You can see the technology getting better at an increasing rate over the generations. Makes you wonder what the S class will look like in another 20-30 years!
@@maxmorris4562 I know right. The new S class supposedly scans where your eyes are and if you look at something for example the rear blinds, it will automaticaly rise up. I mean thats just creepy. Its like it can read your brain 😨😨
Hi, Mat. I'm from Germany and I'm 16 years old. Before a half year my Dad bought a Mercedes 220 SE Heckflosse from 1960 and it's dream. The feeling when you drife is wonderful. Luca
Can we just appreciate Mercedes for sharing the livesaving Airbags to other car brands FOR FREE? Mercedes saved literally millions of lifes! Thank God, we have Mercedes!
Merc: everyone gets free airbags cause we care about safety. Tesla: only we can use the charging points cause we don't give a hoot about the environment really.
@@userrotkiv no they dont, they have a lot of charging stations that they integrated to their system, but the ones they build themselves are made specifically to ignore the standarts of charging ports so that only teslas can use them and even with an adapter tesla doesnt let other manufacturers models charge there.
@@kmat31 no they dont, although they try to hide it best they can on their sites, they say that some chargers are put at normal parking spots, though most are tesla exclusive (A non-Tesla car is parked in a Supercharger stall, what should I do? Most Supercharger stalls are reserved for Tesla charging but some stalls allow general parking.) and ofc they tried to flood the google search for that with tesla friendly articles that make it seem like the rest of the automotive world is too slow for tesla, when in reality they just like to test stuff and then implement it, to stop things like, idk... cars randomly catching fire *Wink wink*
@@kmat31 thats my point, with batteries in the car you need to be careful about building them, unlike tesla, who then after having their cars catch fire tried to sweep it under the rug as best they could
Great video. But the 1959 Mercedes wasn't introduced as the "Heckenflosse" (hedge fin) , but the "Heckflosse" (tail fin). Mat at least got the english translation right. 😜
The Mercedes Benz Nürburg looks great! Apart from the special looking pre-s-classes the first generation looks the best I'd say. No plastic, firm shoulderlines and edges and some chrome to round it up🤩
@@gabrieltavares774 Mercedes put too much money in over Engineering. The W126 was well engineered. I don't know why Mercedes wanted to make it more over Engineered. All I know is , after the w140 Mercedes had serious quality issues
Mercedes: "Achtung, you must not mention Adolf, it is forbidden!!" Mat : "ok... so, a German chancellor of that time.............. Arnie had an S class too"
@@daniel7242 😁 Okay, dude. Sorry for being a smart ass about it. The Hitler Mercedes was the "Grosser Mercedes" or as we Germans would spell it "Großer Mercedes" "Typ 770" (W 150) built from 1938 on.
My favorite S-Class is my 1991 350SD, which we bought new. It still looks showroom new, with less than 110K miles on it. The only modification being a modern sound system and all that those now contain. I remember watching the safety videos playing in the showroom, of crash testing and Autobahn driving, 30 years ago:-0
Cmon Matt, on the sign next to you is written "Heckflosse" not "Heckenflosse" as you said it. Heckenflosse means in English Hedge fin! 😂😂 Heckflosse means tail fin
my old man recently sold his 2016 s500 coupe, proper gutted when it went both of us were. by a mile the most comfiest cruiser i've ever driven, really want an s63 saloon one day though
I’d like more videos in this style. Loved how you went from car to car and have a history lesson on each. Would love to see something like this for the BMW 3 series; one of my favorite cars of all-time.

Exactly, I was literally waiting for it
Who else thought he was going to show us the new S class
Me.. kind of disappointed indeed
🙋♂️🤦♂️
Disappointed ...

Pls make drag race challenge between Mat and Yianni, BUT NO Cars, just run.
yianninini all day evry day 🤣😅
Hahaha... I am thinking about rolling race.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I'd love to see that...
😂😂😂lol. Well make this the top voted comment. And what about a yianni review?
Yianni too fat
I feel like it’s not as elegant as the last gen but the interior tech is way nicer
Serious 🤝
The interior layout of the last gen car is nicer though.
For me only the Nürberg is a true S-Class. All the other ones? PURE GARBAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! xd
it will take time to get used to and the design is growing on me. The tech is just on another level
My point exactly
No one kicked Mat when he said Nurburgring this time...
I dont understand about this kick, can someone explain to me? or when in begun? thanks
Haha i am pretty sure Matt asked to end that a while back
I waited patiently for that kick
The 2013 model S Class and the 2013 CLS to me are the greatest designs ever. I don't think I'll ever see a car with a better design than that.
Absolutely stunning.
Yea the new s class is a major dissapointment inside and outside... And you can't even get a V12 anymore...
I like the 2014 e class along with those as well
@JAWSDAKILLER no you can't they released the S65 AMG final edition wich is the final S class with a V12
wow thats a really bad taste
@@paveantelic7876 Subjective. That's what puts a smile on MY face. Whatever the rest thinks of them, I don't give a fuck about to be honest.
Come on then, which of these classics do you think looks the best? Or do you think the new 7th generation rules over them all?
Do you reply Matt?☺️
@Darsheel Sethia nah I was 3 seconds faster
3rd generation 🥰
7
6
Did Matt just become official Mercedes-Benz representative? I am 100% for that!
Mercedes has invested in carwow so they have a close relationship
@@thomas-be3hy that's why he keeps pushing that horrible gear change on the steering wheel and his bias for only automatics despite the fact he's a CAR guy
@@ChosenMan37 i think he pushes automatics because carwows users are normal people who prefer automatics rather than manuals.

Extraordinary review of s class. Mercedes Benz definitely deserves a special place in every car vlog. Btw my fav model is 2005 :)))
Owning a S-class is like owning a certificate for successful people 😃
Shoutout to all the people that waited for the kick when he said “Nürnburgring”
Nürburgring* u muppet
Clean your ears
Getting famous off of comments day 143, so I can live the dream, live life to the fullest .🤙🚀🤙
Cmon kick his arse
Nolinagirlasia.linK
Have a soft spot for the fifth gen S-class as my family has had one for over 10 years and it’s still going strong today
That's great! Even though some people says that a lot of problems with the 221 but IMO I really like that generation apart from the w140..
To be honest I love the 60s & 70s s class they are too elegant and beautiful.
W126 is my favourite - it set the template for MB’s 80s cars, and was always a handsome car.
You can see the technology getting better at an increasing rate over the generations. Makes you wonder what the S class will look like in another 20-30 years!
It will look like a really cool 20 feet long TV screen.
We will have flying cars by then
I don’t like the idea of too many electronics. Takes away something from a car that should’ve be taken away.
It wont have an engine to please the greens, it will have sails!

“The Chancellor at that time” 😂

@@bharadwajr3430 nope
He referred to Konrad Adenauer, duuh 🙃
@@Sash2888 that how the model got its nickname... The Adenauer
What's funny?
@@AugustZabladowski Hitler was the Chancellor
The W222 is literally the best luxury saloon of the last decades. Even looks fresh inside and out to this day after 7 years
i love it how the 3rd generation has more technology than my car that was produced in 2017
I showed up to see the arms. Wasn’t disappointed. Favorite S Class is ‘92-‘98 model.
W140!😎👍
I know people dont. But i LOVE the new S Class, i think It’s very sporty to be an elegant luxury sedan car
Thank you Mat for making this. Mercedes is my favourite brand.
Merc: everyone gets free airbags cause we care about safety. Tesla: only we can use the charging points cause we don't give a hoot about the environment really.
nothing new, really, tesla always pretends theyre so great but in reality they just take credit for other peoples work and just have a big mouth.
Tesla also gives acess to it's charging network to other car companies.

Matt u are such a great journalist
Sign next to the car: "Heckflosse"
Mat: "Hekken-floss"
Mat you could do a series like this covering the history of companies best selling cars
The front end is a tragedy. It belongs to a $20k car. Rear end looks like a fish.
Lmao xD
Wish I could get a W140 design with all the cutting edge technology
Me: Goes to bed
Also Me: Let me see if carwow has uploaded and sure enough, they did. Carwow never disappoint.
Absolutely love Mercedes Benz. The car that stood out and always will was the w126. I’ve had two a 280SE and 420SEL and both amazing cars.
The AMG story gave me goosebumps. Well told, Mat 🙌🏽
Third generation of S-Class was the best!
Come on, Mat, who does the editing? "Forth Generation" and "Fith Generation". Seriously!?!?
You don't get more gangster/mafia than that 4th generation S-Class. Gorgeous, menacing, and yet simple at the same time.
3rd generation S Class...

The new S class is a true stunner
The third generation was the last overbuilt one.
Prob true- although the 5th/6th seem really solid compared to the 4th.
The W140?

What do you know about robotics, programming and sensors to say something like that?
@@MenacedAssassin time has shown us that it's reliable.
You know it's going to be a good day when a new CarWow video pops up in my recommended.
Mercedes wanted to call the series SS. Then someone said "holdap a minute!'
True story.
The 5th generation in 2013 is my favorite SClass. Enough for me to own it with the 4.7L twin turbo V8. Great special car.
The front of the new S Class looks like the one from the Sprinter o.O
More like looks like all the new models of Mercedes
This just isn’t true dude
It looks too generic & not special enough
Dude are you high or something 😔 looks like the new e class but not a sprinter
Anyone else like the generation that went on from 07-12 the best or just me. The outside is still beautiful to me
Yeah I like that generation too! I do prefer the swb 221 though 😅
Mercedes-Benz S-Class, S stands for Sonderklasse (German for "special class").
Now the S-Class has a new meaning!
S-Class
S stands for schade (German for ”disappointing”)
@@jexuz_7980 "Schade" means "Too bad". Disappointing would be "enttäuschend". Even though that's obviously not the point you wanted to make. 😜
@@coljap.9503 close enough. Fitted the top comment :-D

Everyone of those great cars made me smile while listening to Matt... they are iconic ruling cars
I like the interior of the fouRth one. Just wish he actually showed it.
In my opinion the Mercedes 560 is the best looking one of them all, it's MAJESTIC ❤️
First time Carwow disappointed me. Thought it was going to show us the new S Class
Maybe that's why he's over in Germany? Just did this video first as a little S-Class history lesson?
He already did a few weeks ago.
why would an S class review only be 8mins?
Decades after the first model, the S Class remains the benchmark of the automotive industry
Drag race trucks with yianni, can you imagine his face going through 12 to 18 gear changes
I absolutely love the last S class. Probably the best one yet
Great video. But the 1959 Mercedes wasn't introduced as the "Heckenflosse" (hedge fin) , but the "Heckflosse" (tail fin). Mat at least got the english translation right. 😜
I have owned 3 generations of S class 1987 420SEL, 1999 S320 and 2003 S430 4 Matic. 0ne of the best and most reliable cars I have ever driven!
This is the carwow version for ‘up to speed’
moar powah baby
