Under the S 500 badge sits a 3.0 L straight six with 435 BHP and mild-hybrid assistance — an engine chosen for smoothness rather than outright power, in a 5,179 mm limousine built around rear-seat comfort. In Saudi Arabia it is the S-Class most fleets and private owners actually run. The generation dates from 2020, which is when the model moved to the current cabin architecture and rear-axle steering became available.
How much does the Mercedes S 500 cost in Saudi Arabia?
The Saudi price list carries this car once, badged 4MATIC, for SAR 835,000. Options aside, this is flagship money for a car with nothing missing from it — but it is also a price that falls faster than any other in the Mercedes range, which makes the used market unusually relevant on this model.
Mercedes S 500 or Genesis G90?
The S 500 has the deeper engineering, the more refined ride and, decisively for Saudi buyers, a used market that actually exists — chauffeur and corporate demand keeps these cars moving. The Genesis G90 offers comparable space and equipment for far less new, but is much harder to sell on. The BMW 7 Series is the closer rival on ability.
What does an S 500 cost to run in Saudi Arabia?
9 Km/L is reasonable for the size, thanks to six cylinders rather than eight, but fuel is the small part. Air suspension, tyres and electronics are what generate the bills once warranty cover ends. Juffali Automotive Company services the model at Riyadh, Jeddah and Dammam; for an out-of-warranty car, get a quote before committing to any suspension work.
Does the Mercedes S 500 hold its value, and what should you watch for as it ages?
Better than the class — about 50% of its value after five years, against roughly 43% for German premium saloons in the Kingdom. These cars work for a living: a median of around 130,000 km at inspection, the highest of any Mercedes CarSwitch sees. High mileage is normal rather than alarming on an S-Class, so the report items that matter are air suspension, gearbox behaviour and the state of the rear-seat electronics.
Is a used S 500 the better buy?
Emphatically. Early-2020s examples generally sit around SAR 290,000 to SAR 400,000, roughly 65% below the new price and about SAR 545,000 saved — the largest gap anywhere in the Mercedes range. Start with the used S 500s listed now.
