This September, if you pick up one from Europe. I would expect a similar delay for the US market as with the 221.

Seeing how it hasn't even been released (W221 was presented in March of 2005 to arrive in Europe in September), there is absolutely no chance of W222 hitting the showrooms this September. I am still saying early Spring 2013 launch in Europe and maybe late 2013 arrival in the US as a MY2014 model.

As Seen in this article it's almost ready. So I really doubt it would be revealed in a year from now.

Noone can confirm except for MB, but sounds about right.

Is this possible?
"Weber has also previously revealed that the plug-in hybrid powertrain from the 2009 Vision S500 Plug-In Hybrid Concept will also appear in the next-generation S Class and promise sub-6.0 second runs to 60 mph and fuel economy of 70 mpg or better."

Surely the 70 mpg is a typo!

Highly unlikely given the W222 is right around the corner.
