Overview

Competing in the fullsize sedan segment, the 2013 Mercedes Benz S-Class Diesel Sedan is an indirect competitor to the gasoline-powered BMW 7 Series, the Audi A8 L, and the Jaguar XJ, as there are no diesel sedans at this price point. The S-Class diesel starts off at an MSRP of $92,350, with just one trim in the lineup. Each trim is offered with a 3.0L turbocharged V6 diesel engine and a 7-speed automatic transmission, producing 240 horsepower and 455 lb-ft of torque. Through this powertrain, the S-Class diesel manages a 0-60 of 7.5 seconds and a combined fuel economy of 25 MPG.

Buying Advice

Being the only trim on offer, Mercedes loads it with all the creature comforts that you could want in a luxury sedan. Other than that, we recommend the night-vision warning system, 15-speaker Bang & Olufsen sound system, a panoramic sunroof, and a heated steering wheel.
