In this in-depth review we cover the 2014 Mercedes-Benz S550. This will be a detailed overview of all features, functions, and details. We will also test drive the car and provide our personal experience behind the wheel!
In addition we will provide exhaust & engine sounds, and start up procedures. The in-depth portion will focus detailed usage of all infotainment controls, driver controlled dash instruments, climate functions, vehicle dynamics controls, and all gizmos & gadgets that generally can be intimidating. We hope you can better understand these features and how to use them if you own the car or are in the market for a car like this one. Further details such as styling cues and distinct body lines will be highlighted so that they may be better appreciated.
** We just want to be sure this is a personal experience from our point of view. Often times "in-depth" reviews on KZhead are just audible reproductions of brochures car makers supply. We don't want to inundate you with dull uneventful details that can be read off a pamphlet. And we will do our best to avoid this for you. **

The amount of road presence this car has is absolutely insane. Every single time I see one I just stop and stare at it. A beautiful job well done Daimler
When my 16 CTS gets to 200k miles I'm getting one of these. Yes it's a 2014, but even a 2020 E Class is still not better than this. It's high tech, and do things a brand new 2023 Camry or Accord cannot do and will never have the interior of this.
Excellent presentation. This is the best car ever made. I own a 1994 S500 and it runs well and never embarrasses and keeps up with the contemporary vehicles on the road. This car is a masterpiece in looks, design and being the best car builders absolutely. Mercedes Benz has won me over, line,hook and sinker.🦁
I browse frequently car rides, in specific for luxury sedans such as Mercedes Benz S Class. One of the most important things on a car review for me is the in-depth look and the ride. Most of the time I get disappointed because the people publishing this content don't meet my needs but this one was just perfect. Very good job.
+Jorge Vázquez Thank you very much for your kind words Jorge!! We are so anxious to get back to filming!
This is a Great Review of this car. Clear spoken & easy to understand. He gave very detailed information about the car for only having it for a few hours. The vehicle itself is out of this world with all of the new innovations. Mercedes has stepped the bar really high with this creation. Great job to the Reviewer & Mercedes.
Thank you so much I appreciate your words very much!
The best detailed car review I’ve watched! This car has so many options it needs a long detailed video! Great job💪🏽💪🏽
Auto manufacturers must hire you (you will make them millions) I mean I have looked at thousands of reviews online & no one, I repeat no one is as good as you are, fantastic!
Thank you Screamer!!! Love compliments like that!!!
Amazing review my man. You have one of the absolotue best car reviews here on youtube. Beautiful GMT too :)
BTW please keep making reviews, this was incredible.
Good job, I love watching the suspension work, I wish more people gave that view also. Just amazing how they engineered the suspension to just float the car. Love it!
I fucking luv this vid!!!!!!! It felt like I was watching a mercedes movie!!! Thx for the lengthy video!!!! Keep the videos comin
Thank you so much for your compliments!! We appreciate that so much!
KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK.ONE OF THE BEST REVIEW I HAVE EVER SEEN.AND YOUR CHANNEL IS THE BEST OUT THERE.
Thank you so much Henry King! We appreciate the support!!!
This is the best review i have ever looked at and i have reviewed many car models, Great job !
Really thorough review. Patient and well thought out. Appreciated. Thank you.
This was actually a great help, I didn't know how to do a lot of stuff with my car and this works better than the owner's manual
I am not the type to comment, however, I would like to let you know that you have done a spectacular job with your review. As a person in the market for a new car, this channel leaves no details out, and truly allows a person to understand the vehicle. Other channels are fun to watch to see cars go fast, but you truly aid people looking to make a purchase. Thank you for putting your time in and truly achieving excellence in your reviews.
Great review of the W222 it is very helpful. I just purchased a new one and the options are pretty similar. The puck is now a touchpad no more buttons. You are very detailed and informative with the review. Great job and Thank You.
Da best review on da tube very informative I wouldn't change a thing keep up da exquisite work well done buddy.
Thank you very much!
One of the most complete/detailed in depth reviews ever!!!!! thumbs up man!! Do you also do reviews on Rolls Royce?
Thanks! We have a RR Wraith up now and we are looking at filming the Series II Ghost!
Very very informative video that I in particular appreciate as I may not get much of a handover due to the present pandemic measures in place when I collect my motorcar on Wednesday. Thank you 'motorcarfile' for that in-depth instruction on the various functions of the controls. Quite different to my present BMW 745i which I thought was space age!
Great Review I love the format hope the channel doesn't get dummies who complain about the length of the video i like to just kick back and enjoy for a while
David, this car was a special case. The all new S Class is filled with a lot of new gadgets, tech features, safety functions, and infotainment details to cover. We plan on referring back to this video for the S63, S65, and the S600 so those will not be as long. This one just required a lot detail overview. Thanks, as always, for your comment!!!
I have 2015 S550 … absolutely fantastic car … love it… was my dream car … 😊 …I’m not too crazy about the new w223 S class , interior is little too futuristic for me with that big tablet in the middle , w222 still has the look of a traditional Benz …
Love your review, SUPER detailed, hope you make it as one of the premier luxury car reviewers on KZhead!
Thank you so much, that was a fantastic compliment!!!
Best review on youtube , thank you.
and also perfect review as always
Very thorough review. Thank you!
Finally I found a video that goes into depth in the s550, I've been searching for quite a while to find a review like this. This is a long review but that is what is needed, thanks so much for taking your time to show us. You did a great job, subscribed. 👍
Thanks, there is so much to go through with the new S Class!
This Mercedes is a serious upgrade nice nice car great great review.
Phenomenal review!
By far the best review I've seen of the S550.
Thank you !!
Excellent review!
Another excellent and very comprehensive review! Possibly your best yet. They keep getting better and better. Keep up the great work, as I love these "Luxury Tours" of these high end automobiles.
243Wayne, Thank you so much! We have much more yet to come! We appreciate all the support so far :) !!!
Wonderful review. Thank you very much.
We already seen the license plate in the beginning🤣🤣🤣but good video this car is 🔥
love your review and the car, subscribed
Thank you Syed!!
Well done sir, very helpful.
Great video bro I will be soon buying a 2014 s an I will basically know how to do everything
This and the S63 AMG reviews are my favorite!! A++
Thank you Nathan!! Sorry for the delayed response!
Great video!! Can you make a video on the new s-class coupé
Your review is exceptional..top notch details. AMG will beg to hire you to review thier Benz. Your reviews have no competition. Watching it Feels like you design the car
there are coming a lot of electric sedans , but only ONE , IS ELECTRIFYING !
Good explanation.i have never seen some one explaining like this
Hands down best review ! I'm in market for S550 have watched many others reviews where the commentator was talking too fast or stating his/hers own opinions or camera angles and music (for background) were lousy
Best review ever!!! Good job...
Kelvin Mutuma Thank you so much Kelvin!
Can u please do a full in depth video of a 2020 widebody dodge charger scat pack!! Thanks we need more content! Great vids
Wow! Finally someone who knows how to make a review to excite admirers and owners. Definitely a lesson on S 550 2014. Congrats!!!
+Sergio Pedroza Thank you Sergio I appreciate you taking the time to watch!
Soon you will become the best and most favorite car reviewer, for sure. Just need some time to get more and more people's attention to the channel. I am sure you will be the No.1 very very soon.
Slowokan Thank you so much!!! Now if only the weather would cooperate where we are that would help a bunch :P
***** RR, but this is pretty damn close for the price.
I currently have an E Class and WILL own this vehicle. About $50 large for a nice used one, and well worth it. My E Class has brought such happiness, I really can't imagine what the S Class could provide.
Great video and nice GMT-Master II
Thanks!!
one of my dream cars. I definitely will be getting one.
Me to
You guys are so great at this. Wonderful job! I subscribed just to see the great photography. Do you have a review of any Maserati in the hopper? I'm thinking of one. I did enjoy my Benz though.
Thank you so much for the compliments! We really appreciate the support! We have a few cars lined up, but no Maserati yet. Hopefully we can get our hands on the new Ghibli so we can learn about it!
Thanks for answering. After riding with you in the Wraith, I could change my mind. Awesome!
GREAT GREAT GREAT FREAKING REVIEW WOW!
Thank you!
I’m in the process of buying one now
One day....soon...I'm going to own one of these fine automobile.
Your reviews are excellent... But one problem is that i request you to zoom the camera little bit for the interior....
Nice rolex dude
Amazing
Thank you .the Best or nothing.
Soo beautiful
Gon have this whip one day 🤞🏼
im copping tmr
Very nice video guys, I'm going to subscribe. On another note, could you look at the Hyundai Equus? I am interested in seeing if it stacks up in any way to the best of Germany and Japan. Cheers
Thanks! That would be a great review! Equus/K900 in their latest iterations would be awesome to film!
Great review. Well done throughout. One thing to add: I think the heated steering wheel heats the LEATHER part of the steering wheel instead of the WOOD part. I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure it would damage the wood otherwise.
No I have one it heats the wood
@@ronaldgaines4406 no just the leather.
great reviews! waiting for the range rover and range rover sport !
Thank you so much! We are trying to get a LWB RR, because we have received so many requests for it!
My dream!!! The best or nothing.
+Christian Smith The Mercedes Maybach, dude
Another day Another drug addicted weirdo here to spoil the fun... #BLOCKED
Ive been in the s class they also had heated and cooled cup holders.
Only if it is equipped. Those are not standard items so you need certain packages to have those.
hi!..please do a review of new benz S65 amg...tnx..
Thanks! Will do, we have a lot of requests for the 65!
hi! i just wanted to say that u do great reviews. why have u stoped doing it???
Thank you so much, we went on an hiatus to finish my masters degree! I am finishing that soon and we will resume in full effect!
absolutly insain high tech car from germans.
By Germans.
Gary brand ever built
Is the massage function standard on all S class?
Got a review on the 2015 RS 7? My utmost favorite car from Audi!
is it has air body control system ?
Does this engine come with direct injection technology?
Is S class 550 just an older version of 560?
Can you review a G-Class Mercedes
5:29 Well personally I think this key design looks way better than the new ones
eh staying in the past to much
So I recently bought a black one..and Idk how to work the bluetooth. Can you possibly help me?
sick man, but i got a question; how does the ride in this feel compared to the Rolls Royce Wraith or the Mulsanne? Thanks
With MAGIC Body Control the ride is as supple as the ultra luxury segment cars, like the ones you listed.
Motorcar File thanks for the reply! So what makes those better as there is a huge price difference
+Chukuman please ignore the trolls... Thanks for tuning in!
Hi Henry
this is a V222 not a W222. you guys in the U.S. only get the V222 (longwheelbase). the W222 is the shorter european version of the s class. the driver s class. nice rolex by the way
Thanks!
thats a 2015 w221
THAT WOOD!!!!!!
💯💯💯
Makes it look like a car from 2002:s The wood ruins everything in this spesific car for me. Carbon or piano black is the way to go:) In my humble opinion. Great review tho!
I have been interested in purchasing this car as I think it is better than the Lexus LS460 with regards to overall luxury but I've read so many negative comments on the internet with regards to reliability that I just can't take the jump. If only...
You have a warranty though so why does it matter? In the UK they are very reliable but obviously some things differ for the various markets
I would say that with the warranties now a days that should not be too much of a concern unless you are buying high mileage for affordability. If that is the case get a Lexus!
the lexus will be bets for high milage however here in the UK they arent popular at all, i dont think i have even seen one so i would still recommend the class after all lexus is just a luxury toyota
gotta buy some air freshner"s for me adn my friends mercedes
can you please do the Aventador soon? What car is next
KD we had a bit of a weather delay here in Houston. The past couple weeks have been unpredictable. We have a few cars lined up waiting to be filmed. Aventador is one of them (about a month away from a full detailed review). In the coming week we have an Armored SUV, an S Drive X3 (the new RWD US configuration), a Porsche 911 and a LWB Rover. We are just trying to get the weather to cooperate :P
Ayeee porsche tho
I’m love this car please tell me how much he cost
You can get one under 120k for like 19k and up. No accidents. I know because I'm looking to get one. I'll make sure I'll have 15k laying around in an account making interest just for repairs. think about it. The current generation interior is just too much screen.
Where are the turn signals?
I just bought mine ,one of the best decisions I have ever made .
himo himo How is it so far?
Carrdo so far so good, I have done the breaks , oil , and tires so far . And I’m happy with it .
You did not show the most important of a class its rear seats
now what if one were to leave the key inside??
Most of the time, now I say most because things do fail lol, but most of the time the sensors would know whether the key was inside and either not lock or notify the driver....
upload a video once per a week at least will ya?
Chibu G. it is hard, we both have full time demanding jobs so we try, during our spare time to complete these reviews so that everyone can enjoy these cars with us! We promise there is more to come!! We have a lot of cars on film in the lab being edited as we speak!
Motorcar File Okey guys good luck
Get off my stick.
👍
How much now ? $$
How many miles what price text me
it would be better, gave an overview of the S600 ! And the 550-m Internet is already filled ! While I was waiting for You s600
We will review the 600, it has not hit the streets yet where we are. When it does I guarantee you we will get one and film it!
OOO , this is great ! I hope it will happen soon !
i test drove one and the ride was not as quiet or smooth as the new 7
Good to know!
Ok we know u have a Rolex
Man roads in us are trash Cars shake sooo much In germany roads are smooth af
5 grand cash just in case things go wrong at 242000 miles
Rolex i see??
Did he just say it's better than a maybach?
+Keyshawn Ebanks the maybach is more of a limo than an actual every day car. The s65 amg is better than the 550 ;)
