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 Exclusive PASSION leather upholstery in V12 design. The active multicontour seats in the front and rear – both featuring a massage function – are upholstered in this fine leather, as are the door centre panels, centre console and instrument panel. The A, B and C pillars are covered in Alcantara® leather, as is the roof lining with vertical fluting. Quality elements on doors, instrument panel, armrests and the standard-specification 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 included as standard, as is the exceptional sound of the Harman Kardon® Logic 7® surround-sound system. It is a component of the standard-specification entertainment package.

The COMAND APS multimedia system with hard-disk navigation from the standard-specification navigation package reliably guides you to your destination. When parking, you can call on the assistance of PARKTRONIC with Parking Guidance and rear-view camera from the parking package.
