Summary

The 2020 S 560 4MATIC Coupe brought Mercedes-Benz's latest V8 engine technology, replacing the 4.7L unit with a more efficient and faster 4.0L in responsiveness. This "facelift" model introduced OLED rear lights as standard, which create a unique lighting sequence when the tool is opened or closed. The 4MATIC system and the 9G-TRONIC gearbox work in harmony to deliver extremely smooth movement, while the AIRMATIC suspension provides the comfort of a limousine in a dome body. The most distinctive feature remains the "pillarless" design, which allows for an open side view without interruption. Attention should be paid to the maintenance of assistance systems such as Active Steering Assist and Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC, which are very advanced in this generation.
