Start of history

"Mercedes W220" has replaced another model W140.

In 2005, the production was stopped.

Useful features

Interestingly, in the salon you can sit down, not even on pressing the alarm key FOB. And the engine start can be had without application of the key. And all thanks to a special card Elcode is one of the main features which distinguish the W220. Mercedes this model can boast that it is the steering wheel and seats feature memory, and this is a very good addition. Because as soon as the driver inserts the ignition key (if you do not want to use the previously mentioned map), the wheel just takes the situation that was recorded for the last time. And after the driver kills the engine, he moves over to the panel - this greatly facilitates the process of landing. By the way, the steering wheel is under the adjustment of the servos. And under the driver seat there is a button called "Dynamic", due to which you can pump up the side bolsters on turns. And this is done automatically, you just need to activate the button.

Engines and models

The weakest model (if you can say about a car of this level) is a "Mercedes W220 S280". The M112 motor, which torque is 270 Nm. But the amount of horsepower she's got a serious - 204. The demand for this car was not large. It is for this reason to meet her today is quite difficult.

Many people when buying a car think about how it is economical. And the amount of money going to the machine depends not only on its original cost, from maintenance and breakdowns (if any occur).
