In this decade, luxury only means cramming as much tech into a car as possible. Looks and works great for a few years, but who cares about longevity down the road when the car gets dumped after three years and replaced by a facelifted model with a newer infotainment system.

When has that ever not been an S-Class trademark?
W140
W220
W221
W222
Were all crammed to the gills with as much tech as possible for the time, even if upkeep down the road would be difficult. |
Very true, MB spent $1B in development on W140 and let the engineers have a field day and was heavily criticized for being over engineered.
