How much does the 2024 Mercedes-Benz S-Class cost?

Prices have softened 4.09% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 965 listings available, which gives you a solid pool to compare prices and equipment.

Is the 2024 Mercedes-Benz S-Class a good car?

The 2024 Mercedes-Benz S-Class stands out as a flagship luxury sedan that leans hard into technology, craftsmanship, and comfort. Mercedes-Benz gives it the second generation of its MBUX infotainment interface, and buyers can opt for up to five screens on board. The car also features a new 3D driver display system that uses eye tracking to create the illusion of depth, reinforcing the S-Class’s long-running role as the brand’s showcase for advanced features.

For 2024, the S 500 received a horsepower bump to 442, while the AMG S 63 returned to the lineup as a high-performance plug-in hybrid. That version combines a twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 with an electric motor and a 13.1-kWh battery pack, for a total of 791 horsepower and 1,055 pound-feet of torque. The S-Class also continues to offer rear-axle steering with up to ten degrees of motion, and Mercedes says a new rear airbag system provides airbags in front of the rear passengers for the first time. Those strengths come with the usual S-Class tradeoffs, though: it remains very expensive, and many of its advanced safety and driver-assist systems are still tied to option packages.

With 35.3% of listings marked as good or great deals, you have some room to shop selectively if you want the right combination of features and price.

For used buyers, long-term ownership risk is tied less to basic concept and more to the complexity of the car’s high-end systems, so condition and maintenance history matter a lot.

What should I look for when buying a used 2024 Mercedes-Benz S-Class?

Accident-free inventory is excellent at 92.2% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.

You should still run a vehicle history report and verify that the car’s equipment matches the listing, especially because many advanced systems are tied to option packages. Prioritize a pre-purchase inspection that checks electronics, suspension behavior, and any signs of uneven wear or prior repair work. Focus on overall condition and service records, since a luxury sedan like this can be expensive to sort out if previous ownership was careless.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2024 Mercedes-Benz S-Class?

This is a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop patiently and still find worthwhile listings.

• Deal availability: 35.3% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 965 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 4.09% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 92.2% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $114,210, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2024 Mercedes-Benz S-Class's resale value?

The current average of $118,033 sits slightly below last year's $123,071.

That price movement suggests the market has eased a bit, which can help you buy more confidently today. For a future seller, it also means you should expect resale value to depend heavily on mileage, condition, and equipment rather than assuming the badge alone will protect pricing. Well-kept examples with desirable options should hold up better than neglected cars with missing features or visible wear.

Should I buy a 2024 Mercedes-Benz S-Class or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2024 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2024 if:

• 35.3% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is excellent at 92.2% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 4.09% compared with last year.

Consider the 2023 if:

• At $77,528, the 2023 costs less than the current year's $118,033 average.
• It adds a plug-in hybrid option with strong electric-range appeal.

Consider the 2025 if:

• At $124,938, the 2025 costs more than the current year's $118,033 average.
• It adds standard digital key functionality and a center airbag.

The bottom line: If you want the newest balance of price, availability, and updated tech, the 2024 is the primary path to consider. If your budget is tighter and you want a lower entry price, the 2023 is the better secondary path. If you want the freshest features and can stretch higher, the 2025 is the upgrade path to compare.
