The Bottom Line
Mercedes Benz S-class offers ultimate comfort, latest features and premium interior but somewhere its interior is not as refreshing as BMW’s while BMW offers excellent performance, impressive handling, interior and agility but is not as comfortable as Mercedes. Along with this, it has poor residual values and fuel economy. So, both Mercedes and BMW own their own sets of pros and cons and ultimately it depends on the buyer what he is looking for.
