Rory is my fav motoring journalist. Always comes across very honest, very informed, balanced and helpful reviews!!
Take a shot every time Rory says "sensational" 😂 great review mate!
sensational lol
This guy just makes the review much enjoyable with his sensible talk, he's just like neevesy from mcn , an absolute gentleman.
Yeah. I love his style. He’s talks about the car like he’s talking to a friend. That’s why I subscribe to this channel. He’s easy to listen to. Any car. Anywhere.
Dude stfu already, we get it, he is good, why is everyone keep talking about that lol, he gets it.
@@ahmedxkhan wtf is your problem then??
Agree
Lots of virtue signalling in these comments.
Thought I was addicted to car wow so badly, till I came across Rory 🔥... can’t find the word to express my addiction now
Thats what she said!
I was never a huge fan of cars until I stumbled upon Rory on my recommendations. Sometimes it’s not even the car, it’s just him 🙌🏻. Fantastic presentation.
I started to appreciate this channel a lot more than carwow; you can't watch 2 minutes without them spamming you with self plugs
True asf
And rory does it very subtly
Don't disrespect Matt 😤😤
carwow is shitty low-brow clickbait now. it's so tasteless and campy it's obnoxious and unwatchable, and it attracts the most shallow and surface level enthusiasts possible. insufferable.

The "sorry I just cut in front of you button" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@@mrkatse same in Germany
Word of the day " Sensational "!
I read that in Future's voice
Or ugly..
Or massively
weak design
(Future voice) "Sensational"
"The sorry I just cut in front of you button" love the humor 🤣
Although the new S Class looks great on video I had the opportunity to see one in person in a showroom this week and although I currently own an S560, this new S class is a big step up. It’s stunningly beautiful in person. The interior just exudes luxury. My only concern are the controls. The more we move forward with less buttons, the more I feel we need to read the controls, hence a big road distraction. I can’t help wonder if driving at 100 mph and searching for a seat massage option is wise. I feel the same about the new EQS controls.
I think that it looks way worse than the last gen. The last gen was I think the best looking s-class
The driving assist and tools should back you up while you read and search... OR you could just ask the car to massage you😂😂XD
I would add that if you want to enjoy more serene quiet at lower speeds then the S580 plugin might do the trick and you might also have a better answer to others who blame climate change on your car alone. Mercedes must also find more "younger" buyers who have grown up with smartphones (the iphone is 15yrs old now) where buttons are old-man tech. Also remember that a vast number of the S-Class are chauffeur driven (I'd say all the LWB and every Maybach) so what the front driver has to get used to, is irrelevant. Its not like you're dropping the S-class into your mates backstreet garage for servicing and if you can afford the S-Class, you can afford the service cost (post warranty) so button failures are the mechanics problem.
@@preyhunter4179 stop yapping, go see the car in person
I want a car I can drive from A to B , I don’t want one that takes my fingerprints, listening to me and watching me with video . No thank you .
Best car review - clear, precise without the usual faffing about in most car reviews, covering important detail which makes the car stand out 👌👌👌👌
“You don’t need to do a 47-point turn”.
Proceeds to do a 47-point turn.
Exactly lol laughed when I saw that.
😂😂but you have to admit it’s cutting edge rr no bently have havd of thess features
He actually strained his neck looking out of the window wondering if he was about to scratch the alloys. There I was wondering what was the point of that 3D camera system he had used a little earlier. Haha. Cool stuff though.
benf mhembere Megan has this. Nothing new. And is overall pointless because how often do you go anywhere that parking is not regulated?
I mean, almost every big luxury sedan has a 4 wheel steer feature. Nothing special here.
Hey Mercedes reduce price so I can afford you
Mercedes : sorry I don’t understand peasant
This comment deserves an award
5 yrs u will have one
@@gordonmccracken1209 certified pre own is the best way or simple just buy an extended warranty from Mercedes cheers 🥂
🤣🤣🤣
I enjoy Rory's informative and entertaining reviews. He articulates his descriptions very well. Well done Rory!
Not very informative
I prefer the looks of the older version
Me too
Same. But this new one is growing on me the more i look at it
Me too !
4th and 5th gen better
Really good review. I watch car reviews all the time and I'm surprised this is the first time I've come across this reviewer. He is great!
they need to get rid of the ipad look, and make it more integrated
yeah not liking it.
There new infortainment design is more integrated will be rolling out in future models soon
czcams.com/video/Tv-Jw_aZx0M/video.html
Which the last generation succeeded in achieving, so what the hell?
It's apparently what the majority of owners prefer. They market research these things.
The old s class was much better. I'm not a fan of all this touchscreen nonsense
I really love your interpretations on cars, thanks for giving us a full review.
A great car as long as someone else covering maintenance outside warranty period.
Matt and Rory are my favorite car guys on CZcams. They should host top gear for sure
me: watches a thumbnail of autotrader
my brain:"ever so slightly..."
S class, E class, A class..now it all looks the same...awessssome job Merc...👍👍👍
Honestly, didn’t mind when the E-class design was updated because at least the lineup looked a bit different again. But now they’re all merging together again (I assume the C-class will follow in this full design language). And now you can’t even quickly differentiate the models from the head lights as it’s nearly unnoticeable
@A V , its not like that...people spending 100k on an S class does not like the idea of a 20k hatchback look exactly like it...moreover its a cost effective and better pay off policy adopted by auto makers..not to please customers..and 90% of the people out there still belives that the 6th gen S class was the best S class design ever...So its not only me.
if you cant see the difference, maybe its not for you pal... Those that matter will know as soon as you pull up in one of these.
@@winjaywin , i consider my self as a car guy and work as an auto journalist..even i feel its tough to differentiate merc's new models without noticing subtle changes.
@@abymathew295 stop on. I have been saying this for a while. I’m a car enthusiast and pride myself at being able to differentiate being the model lineups of manufacturers. This and the previous gen S, E and C are very hard to distinguish if quickly seen driving past. Similar to the current Audi range
I'm a BMW fan... But you can't not appreciate this car. Beautiful.
The presenter is also brilliant. Very easy to listen to, great depth of knowledge and vocabulary.
Really enjoyed watching this. Was a little alarmed that we were getting to the end of the video and he had still not mentioned the engine.... But he got there 🤣
What is a car
I suspect more 7-Series buyers drive their own car. Always had a soft spot for the 750i with its V12. Good enough to be an Rolls Royce. Ironically the BMW7 probably hides your expression of wealth than the S-Class. Both the S600 and the 750i will be collectors cars just for the engine and suspension alone. I just dont think many self made wealth sees driving these as looking like their old wall st banker car. It seems weird that anyone would buy a diesel S class or 7-series yet they were the best sellers. The next LWB EQS will be the new pinnacle of both Mercedes tech and its lavish attention instead of the S-class. BMW are further behind by the V12 is gone and so will the V8 soon.
You don't need to do an Austin Powers 40-point turn!
**Proceeds to do a 40-point Austin Power-style turn**
3:34 Is THAT what that big red triangles for? Thanks Rory. You live and learn.
He is right about how the new S class looks. It has lost it’s stateliness and it is less regal now.
The front looks okay but the back design is just horrible.
not "less" regal. Nothing regal about this. From the side you wouldn't know this from sort of Toyota or Nissan.
"maximise your browser window, show some respect" 😂😂😂
I've just maximised it 😎
Thank you. I closed my eyes and drove it. Enjoyed it thoroughly. Benzed it.
Wow... I drove this model today that's why I'm here. Its worth the money guys. Speaking about the engine sound coming through the cabin that's because the car is so quiet any sound can be heard even a pin drop silence is well and truly heard. Love every bit of it plus the video doesn't do it justice ..you've got to see it live to believe .. Bellisimo!!!!
I love your review, straight and honest! Subscribed!!
8:44 the real reason for the lane departure warnings on the HUD
Wonderful car. And great to see how Rory has chilled out and matured into such a good presenter. Much more enjoyable to watch than his TG days
Love the channel and your pleasant and thorough reviews. I have seen a couple of reviews on the Mercedes GLS 63 going through its paces both road and off road…seems like the bees knees of SUV….I would be most interested in your review on this vehicle, if possible.
Great review as usual. And right out of the gate, you hit the nail on the head as I was also thinking, the exterior styling looks like it took a step backwards and certainly not forward.
Clever car but very boring too
‘Sensational’. I’d agree, Rory. The tech looks amazing. The outside, looks... okay.
I just simply can't get my head around on exterior design it's really really boring it doesn't have S class presence
Happy that everyone sees what I’m seeing. Literally only the interior does it for me.
Exterior and interior combo here is amazing.
.... and the back looks like Alfa Romeo Gulia
Have to agree with you,ugly steering wheel,confused interior because nothing flows and it looks like a large ford focus it's a car just for tech people and the interior in the s7 is more elegant and tech with flowing line's
thats because its taken the design language from the lesser models, no longer being the trendsetting flagship. Mercedes has made its intentions clear that because the sedan segment is dying, they're not going spend money where they dont need to. It shows in the interior as well, the slapped on dash screens look nasty, and in my opinion is lazy design, that won't age well, perhaps another cost cutting measure.
Hey Rory I am a fan of your presentation... terrific review ! take a bow mate 👍🏼
This is the one of best car review channels in youtube Thank you.
Rory, answer me this as I'm confused. I can't use my touchscreen mobile but I can use these new touchscreen infotainment systems? How are they legal and phones aren't?
Yh Ik what u mean
You nicked what I wanted to say 😂
Cos they are integrated
Being touchscreen isn't what makes using your mobile illegal. It's everything you can do on your mobile such as be on social media, text messaging, browsing the web, etc. Those tasks can be much more distracting than adjusting your temperature on a touch screen or changing your radio station(to a lesser degree?). Although, I'd personally prefer hard buttons for some of those often used features.
@@mfmishere You can do all that on the infotainment systems.
I was watching Mat got bored, than I noticed Rory had done the review. Stayed till the end.
Yeah Matt is becoming a bit of a bitch
So far The best car presentations ive ever seen ! keep up tthe Good Work Brother !
Brilliant review as always!
And the end of the video just fantastic!))
Greetings from Ukraine!! Yes, we watch your car reviews here)
At 6:35
That shot showing the rear wheel turning was sensational 😎
Sensational
Love the interior, not sure about the exterior design. I agree with you on the expectations vs reality point - I drove the last generation W222 model and expected it to be a really luxurious drive. However, I was disappointed to hear wind and road noise on the highway, as well as the ride not being as smooth as I was expecting.
It is as good as it gets for the price. Only thing better is a Rolls Royce for 3x the price.
Great reporting Rory! The editing here was perfect
I think that the previous model had more presence, however, this new model is starting grow on me. It would be nice if we get a chance to see a review of the S 350D short wheelbase version, as it is a bit more "normal".
Yes it is the big one. This is best 2021 S-class review I've watched since the launch
Rory is smashing theses reviews at the moment
One of the top, useful reviews. Thank you.
Rory I maximized my screen on que. Happy I did, this review did not disappoint. Good job. Cheers! 👍🏾
Thanks Alex -Rory
You are a great reviewer, Congrats Rory, I havent seen you before but have subbed. You have a natural way of presenting. Well done.
Rory''s reviews are like S-class of the cars.
Who's the phantom then?😂
@@navnoorgill5819 Harry, from Harry's garage?
You are great Bro..your reviews are top and i cant wait the next review. Now am at cross road i don't know which car to buy. They are all great, " sensational " the command of English language is superb, the eloquence its perfect. You can come up with a school to train people how to review cars ..food for thought.
Hi, can you tell me. On the brand new S-Class when navigating with Apple Carplay waze apple maps etc do you get navigation turn directions on the DRIVER display ? As far as I know only Renault do this and Apple created the feature back in iOS 9 ! Thanks
Review quality: well above average. Well done.
The S-class is the pioneer of all things automotive.
12:53 Wunderbar! :P I might say. Love this channel, and the presentation from Rory is superb! :) so in love with him haha.
Great review !!!!
Keep up the good work
I can't wait to see the coupe version of the S-Class
Not sure I love the front with that grill. But it still looks really nice
It's so nice to watch your review.. its vibrant 👌🏻💫
I love Rory! He's my favorite AT journalist! ❤️ Something about his personality is more fun, exciting, yet professional! He's just got the perfect blend. (And he's so handsome ❤️😍)
Imagine buying a massive S class and then choosing door handles for aero lmao.
It has a drag coefficient of 0.22, compare that to a charger which has 0.33. thats a big difference. I'll list a few more
Toyota Camry - 0.28
Ford Focus - 0.30
Audi a8 - 0.26
Those door handles are no joke.
Imagine living in Canada, after a snowstorm, and somehow you leave your S-class outside and try to open the frozen shut door handles
@@cococly don't live in canada then
your reviews are always a joy to watch. top gear lost a true legend
Fantastic review! Couldn't help but notice one *GLARING* issue with the centre display. Was that just how it looked on camera or is it much less reflective from the drivers POV?
It’s not that reflective.
Great review. Cool share AutoTrader👍.
People say this car’s looks are controversial but I REALLY like it! It looks sleek, and aggressive while being subtle 😌
Your future car reviewers, TheCarKids
Too much 6 year C-class for my liking. Huge pass.
it pops out when you stroke it!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
like in real life lol
Lmao
that's what she said
Wow this is one of the best car reviews on the internet. Amazing cant believe I just found these
Thank you for taking car reviews to another level!
Would love to know where you got the jacket from. Great video as always !
i was waiting for Rory's review, that's the best one!
we visited there last Oct. & it was awesome.. i've ordered the tri motor fsd ct & i can't wait for it to get here!! I may buy the S or the Y in the meantime..i got lots of solar & back up battery system as well. i love spaceX
I absolutely love your videos however I wish you could do conversions for measurements and dollars keep up the great work think about my suggestion thank you
Such a good orator, fluency, you know your stuff Rory,👌🏾
Was waiting like forever for this review
Super review! Best I watched so far for S500.
Fantastic review thanks Rory👌🏾👏🏾😊 Loving how much time and depth you spent with the technology…I just might convert from Audi to Mercedes 😁
Man that rear wheel steering is big!!!
ye subaru had it in 80s-90s wow
@@serz1885 Chevy Suburbans had it in 2002 and other cars also had these before
@@Jamfogerty it was on few cars before 2000
The letter S in S class stands for: "Sensational"
I thought it was for “standard”
Sonder.
Suck, it's look cheap.
All good having the tech but question is does it work personally having an A35 with constant electrical problems.
Excellent review Rory. You are the best!
I am Ukrainian and this question in the end is just awesome!😀 Great review, thanks!
7:13 ye in my skoda i can do in 2 move turn on this street!go on a curb
Great review, thanks!
Really enjoy your work mate.
👍
It's disappointing to see MB doing away with all the physical switches. Touch is a major way you interact with the car and a big way that it communicates "luxury" to you. The tactile sensation you get when turning a quality knob or pressing a switch with a satisfying "click" is wonderful. It seems like they took the S-Class and turned it into an app.
Hello S class- he asked me to say hello.
At last Rory is reviewing this car! Thanx for a very very good one! I really would have like him to choose between the S8 or this car...
A few Camera Views of the door panels and Full Dash and Seats along with Engine and Trunk shots seeing this is one of the BEST Mercedes has to offer.
Saturday morning. A coffee. A new Rory video. Life's good. Cheers all
Inside it's beautiful but outside the predecessor was way better!
Same thought!
Disagree. This new one just looks more stately, flatter, bigger, more imposing grill, longer and noticably wider body, much better wheel choices and designs in general (especially the 21" one), not to mention the insanely cool rear tail lights.
@@JWil97 nope- the previous gen had such bold and imposing lights. The 3 stripe design- the bulky nature of it. 😭
@@armaanali39 and to me, those stripes are reminiscent of the ridged taillights that graced the W116, W126 and W140. Personally, I think the horizontal taillights in this generation is fine, they just needed to make it more rectangular and less triangular - more like the new E-class and less like the CLS.
@@JWil97 The grill is one of the things that I don't like about it. It's the wrong shape, it's too big and the bezels are too thin. The front end of the facelift W222 was a perfect modern interpretation of the classic Mercedes-Benz front end design. They've ruined it with this new generation S-class, not to mention the facelift E-class ...
Your a great presenter very easy to listen to.
Great 👍
There are plenty of reveiw channels, but this channel videos are well scripted and planned, highlights all important points, and seems like a sensible mature video. Unless other videos where everything is scattered. Editing and cinematography is also amazing......
This channels needs more engagement so yt algo promotes it more.....
I'm sure it works way better on the new S class but seem to remember the Honda Prelude had a similar 4WS system in the late 80's?
Mercedes has had this system for ages as well... However the angle is now massively increased,
The reviewer is one of the best! He does an exceptional job.
Do the door and rear view mirrors adjust automatically as the seat moves?
What an amazing colour combination. Finally get to see an S Class that's not the usual silver with black interior.
