Why does LastVin list 2016 sedan as S500 vs. S550?

Hello, everyone. I'm still on the prowl for the right vehicle. The Lastvin website has been a great resource. I have come across a few funny items. One car was listed as white on Lastvin, yet was clearly black in all photos. Carfax report showed the car as black at registration. Come to find out the car was originally white and the owner had it painted black. It had a black interior and for the life of me I cannot understand why he just didn't order the car in black. Go figure.

The current issue I am trying to figure out is why Lastvin ( https://www.lastvin.com/vin/BPr5q2vqpB8EXmxML) shows: WDDUG8CB8GA241503 as a S500 versus S550. It is a 2016. Anyone have any insight? Is there a glitch in the matrix? Thanks in advance.

Thanks JL. It seems for the 2016 MY (and maybe earlier) Lastvin shows them as S500, but in 2017 they started showing S550. Thanks for the response.
