Whether you’re shopping for the classic 2004 S‑Class or a newer model, the Mercedes‑Benz S‑Class price can vary widely depending on trim, mileage, and condition. A 2004 S‑Class, for instance, may command a different valuation than a 2018 version, yet both share the hallmark engineering that sets the brand apart.

Mercedes‑Benz S‑Class Depreciation Overview

When assessing a used Mercedes‑Benz S‑Class price, depreciation is a critical factor. Historically, the S‑Class has been one of the slowest depreciating luxury sedans on the market. Typical patterns are:

  • First year: ~15‑20% reduction from the original retail price.
  • Years 2–3: ~10‑12% per annum.
  • Years 4–5: ~8‑10% per annum.
  • After five years: the vehicle often retains 35‑45% of its original value.

These estimates vary with mileage, condition, and location but provide a reliable framework for estimating resale value. The combined effect of low depreciation and high build quality makes the Mercedes‑Benz S‑Class depreciation curve one of the most attractive among luxury automakers.
