Mercedes' 2012 S Class model set for a convertible variant.
The luxury car market is set to witness a significant shake-up next year, as Mercedes-Benz announces the launch of the S Class Convertible. The new model, set to arrive in 2013 for markets on the Colonial side of the Pond, will offer a diverse range of power options, catering to a wide range of performance preferences, including high-performance options.
The S Class Convertible will provide a selection of powertrain options for potential buyers, ranging from a 200bhp four-cylinder engine to a powerful AMG engine with an output of 650bhp. This variety ensures that the model will appeal to a broad audience, from those seeking a more modest driving experience to those who crave the thrill of high-performance motoring.
In a direct challenge to the Bentley Continental GTC, the S Class Coupe Convertible is positioned by Mercedes-Benz as the direct counterpart to the British luxury convertible. The S Class Convertible is planned to compete with only the Bentley Continental GTC, as of the information provided. The new S Class will feature a raft of new innovations, although the details of these innovations have yet to be disclosed.
The new S Class will be available in three different versions: a saloon car, an extended LWB version, and a two-door coupe version, which is expected to be renamed the S-Class Coupe when the new S Class launches. The S Class Convertible, as the two-door version, will offer multiple powertrain iterations, ensuring that buyers have a choice that suits their needs and preferences.
While the S Class Convertible is initially designed for the luxury market, it is expected that these innovations will eventually filter down to cars of lesser mortals as the technology matures and the cost falls. This means that in the future, we can expect to see similar advancements in more affordable models, making luxury features more accessible to a wider audience.
In conclusion, the Mercedes-Benz S Class Convertible promises to be a formidable competitor in the luxury convertible market, offering a diverse range of power options and challenging the Bentley Continental GTC directly. With its launch scheduled for late next year, luxury car enthusiasts on the Colonial side of the Pond can look forward to experiencing this new model.
