The 2014 Mercedes S Class will be revealed this evening (15th May 2013) and you can watch it LIVE on Cars UK.

The new S Class (W222) gets a bit longer than the current S Class (by 20mm), a bit wider (28mm) and a bit lower (25mm) but the wheelbase of the standard S Class stays the same at 3035mm with the long wheelbase S Class getting an extra 130mm for extra sprawling room.
There will be a variety of engines on offer in the new S Class (from parsimonious 4-cylinders to mighty V12s) but we’re expecting at launch that just three will be on offer – the S350 diesel with a 255bhp V6, the S400 with a 300bhp V6 petrol and the S500 with a 4.7 litre turbo petrol with 450bhp.
In terms of styling, Mercedes appear to have taken away much of the bulbous look of the current S Class and replaced it with a more flowing shape, but one that’s still very much S Class.
Expect a raft of new technology on offer (depending on models) and the eventual arrival of the new S Class Pullman to take the place of the now defunct Maybach.
All will be revealed tonight at 6.15pm (UK time).
