Mercedes S 550 Review
Mercedes S 550 is one of the best offerings from the house of Mercedes- a beautiful luxurious homely feel is what the specialty of this vehicle is. With fully loaded technology and powerful engine, it is unbeatable by its rivals. Some of the contenders are Maserati Quattroporte, BMW 750Li, Audi A8L, and Lexus LS460L.
Under the Hood
S550 integrates an enormous V8 engine of displacement 5.5 ltr. Power produced by this engine is 382 hp and 391 lb-feet, that’s according to the Ben lineup. It weighs around 4465-pounds and an EPA rating of 14/22mpg in city/highway, which is something good when its weight is considered.
Fuel Efficiency
S550 goes to a limited top speed of 130mph. It has a 7-speed transmission, which provides easy gear change. Handling capability is good with multi-linkage at the rear and front. Even though the car is so heavy and big, handling it is very easy and you will feel that car weighs just the 3/4th of its original weight.
Good Buy or Not?
If you are looking out for a very luxurious and comfortable car, which boosts your prestige, then Mercedes S 550 is the perfect buy. If you are rich enough to spend on fuel at present, then certainly this is your car. But, for rest it will burn their pockets.
