S500
Is the W223 available in the U.S. as an S500? The reason I ask is that I saw a shipping truck with two S500s on it today in Alabama near the plant in Vance. I didn't think the S500 was available in America. I do remember it having 4Matic. What engine model variations does the W223 have currently?

Yes, in fact, the MY22 S500 was just released to dealers and should be arriving as we speak, MY22 S580's have not been released yet I believe. The majority of 21's were 580's, my dealer had only S500 out of 12 total S-Class when they were first released.

The 6 cylinder s class has been around since the LCI W222 I believe.
I feel like dealers use the 6 cylinder variant to be able to advertise the super cheap lease payment but only stock 1 or 2 at a time.
