Engine Options and Horsepower 

Three models define the 2025 S-Class Sedan: S 500 4MATIC, S 580e 4MATIC, and S 580 4MATIC. Each trim balances performance with sophistication. The S 500 4MATIC uses a turbocharged 3.0L inline-6 engine. It produces 429 horsepower and 384 lb.-ft. of torque. The integrated EQ Boost adds 21 horsepower. The S 580e 4MATIC pairs a 3.0L inline-6 with a plug-in hybrid system. Combined output reaches 510 horsepower and 553 lb.-ft. of torque. The S 580 4MATIC pushes further with a 4.0L V8 biturbo engine. It generates 496 horsepower and 516 lb.-ft. of torque. This variety suits every style of luxury performance. 

Acceleration and Top Speed 

Acceleration remains a strong point across all trims. The S 500 reaches 0–60 mph in just 4.9 seconds. The S 580e achieves it in 5.1 seconds. The S 580 lowers it to 4.4 seconds. Each trim features a top speed electronically limited to 130 mph. Paired with the 9G-TRONIC automatic transmission, shifts are seamless and smooth. The 4MATIC all-wheel drive system provides confidence on any surface. With power directed to the wheels that need it most, grip remains optimal. This setup ensures precise handling in all conditions. 

Fuel Efficiency and Range 

Performance meets economy with clever engineering. The S 500 4MATIC offers an estimated 23 MPG combined. This sedan's S 580 4MATIC trim follows closely with 20 MPG combined. The S 580e plug-in hybrid stands out. It delivers an estimated electric range of up to 46 miles. Regenerative braking and hybrid coordination support this impressive efficiency. EQ Boost also contributes by filling power gaps and reducing fuel consumption during steady speeds or coasting. You gain power when needed and save energy when possible. 

Technology that Enhances Performance 

Advanced systems support every move. DYNAMIC SELECT allows multiple drive modes—Comfort, Sport, Individual, and more. The S-Class responds instantly to road conditions and driver inputs. DISTRONIC® active distance assist maintains safe gaps with adaptive cruise control. Available E-ACTIVE BODY CONTROL reads the road ahead and adjusts suspension in real time. Steering, throttle, and braking adapt based on terrain, traffic, and personal preference. Every feature works to enhance control, not override it.
