Who said that sedans are agonizing? The S-Class lineup is actually expanding for 2024. Joining the S 580e plug-in hybrid model (503 total horsepower, 90 km of EV range) is the AMG S 63 E Performance, a 791-horsepower monster that is more focused on performance than fuel economy. Other options include the S 500 4Matic and S 580 4Matic, as well as the extremely opulent Maybach S 580 and V12-powered Maybach S 680.
