The S-Class has retained its position at the top of the UK’s luxury saloon sector, winning Best Luxury Car for a seventh consecutive year at the Auto Express New Car Awards.

The New Car Awards are the annual celebration of the best new cars available on the market, and are voted for by Auto Express readers.

Steve Fowler, Editor-in-Chief of Auto Express, said: “No rival can match the peerless comfort, refinement and all-round appeal of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, which is why it has won our Best Luxury Car Award seven times. It is a technological tour de force that oozes class and desirability.”
