First Drive Reviews

A bunch have hit the internet over the past day or two.

All the british mags have thrown in their 2 cents, with the exception of Car.

All the americans have weighed in.

Glowing praise all around. Small beef with electro-mechanical steering and rear visibility. Other than that, a major leap forward from previous generation.

Links?

I'm interested to see some comparo's against competitors to see how far ahead in overall dynamics it is to these reviewers.

Yeah I just came across some as well. Posted a Car and Driver one I saw.

The comparo tests will be the real fun ones.

They could have at least edited out the guy who said its the first S class hybrid (wrong) and also that its a 4.0 liter hybrid (wrong again)
