Mercedes says goodbye to the V12-powered S-Class with the S 65 Final Edition
The company plans to focus on its V8s and electric powertrains.

The V12 has long been the pinnacle of their powertrain lineup, but the company has decided to begin phasing out those highly-coveted engines to focus on developing their line of V8s and electric powertrains. You can still get your hands on a new V12 if you're willing to pony up the cash for one of their Final Edition S 65 sedans. Limited to 130 vehicles worldwide, the Final Edition models will feature a high-gloss obsidian black metallic paint finish, 20-inch forged multi-spoke copper wheels, air-inlet grilles in matte bronze, and a black Nappa leather interior with copper trim elements.
