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

31.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
Are Mercedes-Benz S-Class models reliable?
Owners consistently praise the S-Class for its luxurious feel, advanced technology, and strong performance, while expert coverage repeatedly points to a deeply polished flagship character. Across the model years in the data, the car’s comfort, craftsmanship, and smooth driving experience stand out as recurring strengths.
- Owners rate the Mercedes-Benz S-Class between 3.92 and 5.0 out of 5 stars across all model years in the data.
For used buyers, long-term ownership risk is tied to the S-Class’s complexity, so a careful inspection and service-history review matter a lot before you commit.
What should I look for when buying a used Mercedes-Benz S-Class?

| 2016 | 58.4% |
| 2015 | 56.7% |
| 2014 | 58% |

Key things to evaluate:
- Fuel efficiency: The S 580e is the efficiency leader of the lineup, with 48 miles of electric range and 23 mpg in combined driving once the battery is depleted.
Which Mercedes-Benz S-Class trim should I buy?
The 2025 Mercedes-Benz S-Class offers these trims:
- S 500: The entry point brings a turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six, 442 horsepower, a nine-speed automatic transmission, standard 4Matic all-wheel drive, and a 12.3-inch digital instrument panel with a 12.8-inch infotainment touchscreen.
- S 580: This V8-powered trim adds 496 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque, plus the same core luxury and tech setup, making it a strong step-up if you want more power.
- S 580e: This plug-in hybrid pairs the base six-cylinder with an electric motor and a 22.7-kWh battery pack for 503 hp, 553 lb-ft, and an estimated 48 miles of electric range; it stands out as the best-value trim for buyers who want efficiency and performance together.
- AMG S 63 E Performance: The performance flagship combines a twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 with an electric motor for 791 hp and 1,055 lb-ft, plus an estimated 16 miles of electric-only driving.
- Pinnacle: This upgrade adds rear-seat amenities like an infotainment-system tablet, voice controls, a wireless charging pad, and an entertainment system with two 11.6-inch displays.

What is the Mercedes-Benz S-Class's resale value?
| Model Year | Current Avg. Price | Year-Over-Year Change |
|---|---|---|
| 2023 | $78,185 | −12.96% |
| 2020 | $46,617 | −12.39% |
| 2016 | $29,297 | −10.63% |
| 2021 | $59,063 | −10.6% |
| 2022 | $63,618 | −10.58% |
| 2018 | $33,875 | −9.99% |
| 2025 | $125,861 | −9.95% |
| 2019 | $41,058 | −8.69% |

| 2017 | $38,243 | −6.11% |
| 2024 | $120,174 | −4.43% |
Most model years in the table are down year over year, which is good news if you’re shopping used because it creates more room for value. The steepest drops are concentrated in several recent and mid-cycle years, while a few years are falling more slowly. That pattern suggests you can find meaningful savings across much of the lineup, especially if you’re flexible on model year.
The 2024, 2017, and 2014 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.

- Starting price: The entry-level 2025 Mercedes-Benz S 500 has a manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP) of $118,900.
If you're buying used today, the 2023 model year offers the best mix of value and availability. If you want the latest tech and features, it may be worth waiting for the next model year's inventory to build up.

Reviewed a 2015 Mercedes-Benz S-Class on Dec 27, 2025
This model is particularly a great S-Class version. It is so much better than the successor model S. The features are pretty much the same but having the tactile models and not a giant Ipad in the middle made the car so much more user friendly. I hope the next version reverts back to tactile buttons and not all of these haptics that just do not work. It is a card with an excellent ride and the sound system is top notch. I have never really had a smooth quieter ride than the S Class Mercedes.

CarGurus recommends the 2023 Mercedes-Benz S-Class
Summary
With 209 currently listed for sale near Phoenix, AZ and an average price of $86,128, 27.8% of 2023 Mercedes-Benz S-Classes for sale on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2023 Mercedes-Benz S-Class 4.7 / 5 stars and CarGurus experts gave it an 8.5 / 10.
92.3% of 2023 S-Class models on CarGurus are accident free.
Why it stands out
The 2023 Mercedes-Benz S-Class stands out as a luxury full-size sedan that blends strong performance with impressive technology and premium interior materials. Mercedes also introduced a new powertrain for 2023, giving the car added appeal for buyers who want a more modern setup in this latest-generation S-Class.
Its plug-in hybrid system is the main differentiator, and it can go far on electrons. That said, it is not much more efficient than the non-hybrid powertrain, so the benefit is more about convenience and electric driving range than a dramatic efficiency gain. It is also very expensive and does not qualify for a federal tax rebate, which may matter to shoppers weighing its upscale appeal against its cost.
