Mercedes S580 Price: MSRP, Trims & Real-World Cost

The S-Class is the flagship sedan of Mercedes-Benz, and the S 580 4MATIC is the model that many buyers think of when they picture it. The 2027 price list shows a clear ladder: the S 500 below, the S 580 and S 580e at the same price in the middle, and two Maybach models far above. This page explains where the S 580 falls in that ladder.

The S 500 4MATIC is the entry car at $112,550. The S 580 4MATIC is listed at $134,600. The S 580e 4MATIC, the plug-in hybrid, is listed at the same $134,600.

Both the gas and plug-in versions of the S 580 carry the same MSRP, so the choice between them rests on how you drive and charge, not on sticker price.

Destination and delivery for the 2027 S-Class is listed at $1,550. It is added to the MSRP and appears on the window sticker.

With the same price, the question is use. A plug-in hybrid can run on electric power for part of your driving if you charge it, which can reduce fuel use on short trips. If you have no easy access to charging, it works as a hybrid but you will not get that benefit. The S 580 has no plug to think about. Check electric range, charging time, and trunk space on Mercedes-Benz USA, because a battery can affect cargo room.

The S 500 is the lower price, and the gap to the S 580 is large enough to consider. A buyer who mostly chauffeurs or commutes may find the S 500 plenty, while someone who wants the higher-spec car will pay the difference for the S 580. Look at the standard equipment of each, since features may differ.

The Mercedes-Maybach S 580 is listed at $210,200, and the Mercedes-Maybach S 680 at $247,450. Both are priced far above the regular S-Class. If a dealer shows you a Maybach after you ask about the S 580, those figures show how big a step it is. Maybach models are a separate purchase decision with their own equipment and ownership costs.

• Destination. Added to every new car.
• Packages. Technology, and driver assistance packages are priced separately.
• Paint, wheels, and interior. Many options carry a charge, and some are expensive.
• Taxes and fees. State sales tax, title, registration, and documentation fees vary by location.
• Dealer pricing. Some dealers discount and others hold to MSRP.

Large luxury sedans typically lose value over time, which makes pre-owned S-Class cars attractive to some buyers. A used car costs less, but older model years differ in design and technology, and repair costs on a complex car can be high. Request the full service history, confirm warranty status, and get an independent inspection. Certified pre-owned coverage can add peace of mind, so ask what it includes.

Leasing is common in this class. Ask for lease and purchase quotes on the same car, and compare total cost over the period you plan to keep it. Check mileage limits and end-of-lease fees.

Insurance, scheduled service, tires, fuel, registration, and depreciation add to the purchase cost. Insurance quotes depend on your location, driving record, and the vehicle, so collect a few. Ask what the factory warranty covers.

Build the car on Mercedes-Benz USA's website, then ask an authorized dealer for an itemized, written quote that shows the base price, each package, destination, taxes, and fees.
