Any News on the S500 Plug IN

My dealer won't tell me anything because they don't know anything. I checked Mbusa and it said it is going to come out in 2015. We don't have any announcement on the release date or pricing. I was wondering if anyone knows a ballpark range of the price. I know the W221 hybrids and diesels were cheaper than the s550 due to the V6 engine and was wondering if it would be the same for the S500 Plug In

Making a plug-in car is still very expensive for manufacturers. Just take a look at the prius for reference. The standard V8 S550 starts at $94,400 I suspect the plug-in to start right around $100,000. I'm going to take an educated guess and say $99,800.

Apparently on the German site, they both have the same base MSRP.
