Walkaround new S-Class: how an icon still defines its class in 2026 — RedlineArchive

What makes a car truly timeless? That’s the question Callum Mullin set out to answer as he spent time with the newest edition of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class. In this walkaround, the up-and-coming automotive tastemaker explores why the S-Class has always been more than just a flagship. From leaders and creatives to car enthusiasts across generations, it’s a vehicle that has quietly shaped how the world understands luxury, comfort and innovation. The latest S-Class continues that legacy in a way that feels both familiar and forward-looking. From its illuminated grille and DIGITAL LIGHT headlamps to the calm, sanctuary-like interior, every detail is designed to create a sense of ease the moment you step inside. MANUFAKTUR personalisation, advanced ambient lighting, a refined MBUX experience powered by MB.OS and first-class rear-seat comfort all come together in an environment that feels less like a car - and more like a place to arrive. Nearly 140 years ago, Carl Benz filed patent DRP 37435 that marked the birth of the automobile. Since then, Mercedes-Benz has continued to redefine what a flagship model can be - with the S-Class often leading the way, introducing innovations that would later shape the entire industry. Today, that heritage meets the present. A place of calm in a busy world. A car that connects generations. And still quietly sets the benchmark time and again. Watch as Callum takes you through the details, the atmosphere, and the feeling that has made the S-Class an icon for decades.
