A 12-cylinder with everything it takes to make your heart beat a bit faster: the front section of the S 600 is dominated by the new-look radiator grille in chrome with three double louvres. Another visual highlight is the standard-fit LED Light package, with Intelligent Light System, Adaptive Highbeam Assist and turn indicators, position lights and daytime driving lights, all with LED technology. Even when standing still the vehicle radiates dynamism, poised on its 18-inch V12 5-spoke light-alloy wheels. Characteristic are the V12 badge at the side, the chromed tailpipes with vertical rib integrated in the rear bumper, the chrome boot loading edge and the chrome door sill with Mercedes-Benz lettering.

The S 600 is equipped ex factory with the luxurious PASSION Exclusive leather upholstery in a V12 fluted design. The active multicontour seats in the front and the multicontour seats in the rear – both featuring a massage function – are covered in fine leather, as are the door centre panels, the centre console and the dashboard. The A, B and C pillars are covered in Alcantara® leather, as is the roof liner in longitudinal fluting design. Quality elements on doors, dashboard, armrests and the standard wood/leather steering wheel, are available in exclusive brown poplar wood, or optionally in burr walnut. Visual and sun protection for the rear compartment passengers is provided by the electric roller blinds in the rear doors.

KEYLESS-GO and the ambient lighting function, adjustable to three different colours, are just as naturally present, as is the exceptional sound of the Harman Kardon® Logic 7® surround sound system. It is a component of the standard front entertainment package.

The APS navigation package with hard-disc navigation of the COMAND APS multimedia system guides you to your destination, and when parking, the PARKTRONIC with parking guidance assists.
