What does the 'S' stand for? |
[Edit] |
Answer
Large Sedan.
S also perhaps stands for "SUPER" meaning it required higher octane gas for the high compression engines, and may be also because of its opulence. I guess no one really know where it came from. But what is for certain is that the L (in 300SEL, 400 SEL etc.) stands for a long version of the sedan which has a wheelbase that is a few inches longer than the regular sedans. Since the W140s were introduced the L has follen into obscurity and S classes are now offered with a single length wheelbase: sad!
