Transmissions
The S-Class transmissions are perfectly matched to its engines – and let you choose the right mode for your mood.
7G-Tronic. 7G‑Tronic automatic transmission
comes as standard on V6‑ and V8‑engined
S‑Class models. Its seven forward gears ensure
the engine is always operating at the optimum
speed, helping to reduce fuel consumption,
while the short, slick shifts make for smoother,
quieter driving. The transmission is controlled
via the Direct Select gear shift lever on the
steering column, while a separate set‑up switch
enables you to choose between manual, comfort
and sport modes. In manual mode, you can also
change gear using racing‑style steering wheel
shift paddles.
5-speed automatic transmission. The perfect
partner for the S600’s V12, the 5‑speed
automatic transmission offers rapid and barely
perceptible gear shifts and ensures optimum
acceleration in any situation. It also gives you
the option of changing gear manually.
