The Mercedes-Benz W140, more commonly known as the S-Class, was a flagship luxury sedan produced by the German automaker from 1991 to 1998. The W140 marked a significant departure from its predecessor, the W126, with a more imposing and luxurious design, and an unprecedented focus on safety and comfort. It was the first S-Class to feature a driver's airbag, along with the option for passenger and side airbags. The W140 was also the first car to feature a fully digital instrument cluster, known as the "Electronic Instrument Cluster" (EIC), and a sophisticated traction control system. Under the hood, the W140 offered a range of powerful engines, including the legendary 6.0-liter V12 and the 5.0-liter V8, which provided both thrilling performance and smooth, quiet operation.

The W140 S-Class was a true technological marvel for its time, incorporating features not seen in other cars. Its advanced suspension system, known as Active Body Control (ABC), used hydraulic actuators to actively control the car's body roll and pitch, providing exceptional handling and comfort. The W140 also featured a groundbreaking climate control system, which used sensors to monitor cabin temperature, humidity, and air quality, automatically adjusting the system for optimal comfort. While the W140 was a pioneering car in terms of technology and luxury, it was also known for its massive size and weight, which contributed to its high fuel consumption and somewhat sluggish acceleration. Despite its flaws, the W140 S-Class established itself as a benchmark for luxury and refinement, paving the way for the future generation of S-Class models.
