But the S-Class is all about the rear passenger and you can expect a lot more opulence, tech and pampering to be meted out to the rear occupant. Although there’s no image for the same, the rear passenger will get a new touchscreen unit in between the armrests to control various aspects of the car. In terms of features, the flagship S-Class will come loaded to the brim with features such as the latest version of the MBUX system, powered seats with ventilation, a panoramic sunroof, ambient lighting, fold-out tray tables, ambient lighting and lots more.

Mercedes-Benz hasn’t spoken anything about the powertrain of the next-gen 2021 S-Class. However, we expect it will continue with its current 3.0L petrol and diesel engines. There will most certainly be a new hybrid powertrain and the AMG version could continue to be powered by a twin-turbo V8 engine. If Mercedes will continue with the V12 engine in the AMG-spec S-Class is something that remains to be seen. The new 2021 Mercedes-Benz S-Class will make its global debut by the end of 2020 and is expected to come to India by late 2021.
