Summary

Provided by NADAguides.com

Now standard with multi-contour seats, Parktronic with rear view camera, and Keyless-GO, the 2013 Mercedes-Benz S-Class is a full-sized luxury sedan available in hybrid and AMG trim levels. The base S550 sedan comes standard with a 429 hp producing 4.6-liter twin-turbo V8 engine, 7-speed automatic transmission, and RWD. The S600 trim boasts a 510 hp producing 5.5-liter twin-turbo V12 engine, 5-speed automatic transmission, and RWD. For the green driver the RWD S400 hybrid trim offers a 295 hp producing mild-hybrid 3.5-liter V6 engine and the S350 BlueTec 4MATIC offers a 3.0-liter turbo diesel V6 that produces 240 hp. The S63 and S65 AMG trim levels seamlessly combine luxury with performance. The S63 AMG sports a 5.5-liter bi-turbo V8 that produces 536 hp and 590 lb-ft of torque while the S65 harnesses the power of a 6.0-liter bi-turbo V12 that produces a whopping 621 hp and 738 lb-ft of torque. Both models are RWD and come with the AMG SPEEDSHIFT. Fuel mileage falls within an EPA estimated range of 12 mpg city to 31 mpg highway, depending on model selection. Safety comes in the form of 10-way airbag protection, blind-spot assist, anti-lock braking (ABS), electronic stability program, and active body control. The S-Class is backed by a 4-year/50,000-mile warranty.

Benefits of Driving a 2013 Mercedes-Benz S-Class Sedan

The S-Class sets the standard for luxury and performance in a sedan platform. Mercedes-Benz is also setting its sights on making its flagship vehicle a standard in fuel economy and reduced emissions as well, with innovative diesel and hybrid engine options. Sport-driving fans need not worry, though, as the AMG-tuned models continue to deliver high horsepower in a luxury wrapper.

What's new for 2013?

The Mercedes Benz S-Class is mostly unchanged; however for 2013 the Premium 2 option package is now standard across the board, meaning that optional items such as parking assist, a backup camera and massaging front seats are now standard.

Model Strengths

  • Clean diesel and Hybrid availability
  • world-class performance, comfort and safety
  • amazing available technology

Model Review

The smallest engine available on the S-Class comes in the S350 BlueTEC turbodiesel. It's a 3.0L V6 that makes 240 hp and 455 lb-ft of torque. This engine is efficient enough to get 21 mpg in the city and 31 mpg on the highway. The S400 hybrid continues with the fuel conscious theme with a mild hybrid system mated to a 3.5L V6 with 295 hp and 284 lb-ft of torque. This combination is enough to net 19mpg in the city and 25mpg on the highway.

Original Warranty  help
Original Warranty
An original warranty is the warranty associated with a vehicle when it is brand new. In addition to the original warranty, select items, like tires, are typically covered by respective manufacturers. Also, an act of Federal law sometimes provides protection for certain components, like emissions equipment.
The original warranty is often broken down into multiple sections, including:
Basic Warranty:
Typically covers everything except for parts that wear out through normal use of the vehicle. Examples of non-covered items are brake pads, wiper blades and filters.
Drivetrain Warranty:
This warranty covers items the basic warranty does not protect. Wear and tear items such as hoses will not be covered, but key items like the engine, transmission, drive axles and driveshaft often will be.
Roadside Assistance:
The level of service differs greatly with this warranty, but many manufacturers offer a toll-free number that helps provide assistance in case you run out of gas, get a flat tire or lock your keys in the car.
Corrosion Warranty:
This warranty focuses on protecting you from holes caused by rust or corrosion in your vehicle's sheet metal.
Please check the owner's manual, visit a local dealership or look at the manufacturer's website to learn more about the specifics of the warranties that apply to a vehicle.

Mercedes-Benz Certified Pre-Owned Warranty  help
Certified Pre-Owned Warranty
To be eligible for Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) status, vehicles generally must be recent models with relatively low mileage. CPO vehicles must also pass a detailed inspection, outlined by the manufacturer, which is measured by the number of inspected points.
Warranty coverage can vary from one manufacturer to the next. While most certified pre-owned programs transfer and extend the existing new car warranty terms, others offer a warranty that simply represents an additional year and mileage value. Always check with the manufacturer for the specific warranties they offer.
Common features and benefits of Certified Pre-Owned warranties include:
Age/Mileage Eligibility
To even be considered for certification, a car must be a recent model year and have limited mileage. The exact requirements are established by individual manufacturers.
Lease Term Certified
Some manufacturers offer certified pre-owned cars for lease. The length of the lease is often shorter than a new car lease, but it will cost you less.
Point Inspection
These inspections entail a comprehensive vehicle test to ensure that all parts are in excellent working order. The point inspection list is simply a numbered list of exactly what parts of the car are examined. While many inspections range from a 70- to 150-point checklist, most are very similar and are performed using strict guidelines. Ask your local dealer about specific details.
Return/Exchange Program
Some manufacturers offer a very limited return or exchange period. Find out if you will get the sales tax and licensing/registration fees back should you return or exchange the car.
Roadside Assistance
Most certified pre-owned programs offer free roadside service in case your car breaks down while still under warranty.
Special Financing
Reduced-rate loans are available through many certified pre-owned programs. Manufacturer-backed inspections and warranties help eliminate the risks involved with buying pre-owned, so buyers who qualify can take advantage of the great offers.
Transferable Warranty
When a new car warranty transfers with the certification of the car and remains eligible for the next owner, it is known as a transferable warranty. Once the original transferable warranty expires, an extended warranty takes effect.
Warranty Deductible
This is the amount for which you are responsible when repair work is performed under the warranty. Some manufacturers require a deductible while others don't, so always ask.
The MBCPO Limited warranty provides vehicle coverage for 12 months or up to 100,000 total accumulated vehicle miles and begins at the expiration of the New Vehicle Limited Warranty
Age/Mileage Eligibility 6 years / 75,000 miles
Lease Term Certified Yes
Point Inspection Yes
Return/Exchange Program Yes. See dealer for details.
Roadside Assistance Yes
Special Financing Yes
Transferrable Warranty Yes
Warranty Deductible No
