2022 7 Series vs S-Class: Performance

When you're shopping for your next car, you're probably looking for tons of power under the hood. With these two models, you've hit the jackpot. The BMW 7 Series and S-Class come with multiple engine options, offering tons of amazing power.

They both start off with a standard 3.0L inline 6-cylinder engine, though the power doesn't stop there. The BMW 7 Series has five different engines to choose from, compared to the S-Class model's two engines. Let's take a look at the maximum power you can get with each model…

Fuel Economy: BMW vs Mercedes

Whether you're heading out on an adventure or traveling through rush hour, you'll want a vehicle with a great fuel economy. The BMW 7 Series and 2022 S-Class fit the bill. However, which is more efficient?

The BMW 7 Series has an EPA-estimated 22 city/29 highway MPG rating, allowing you to easily go on adventures throughout the city with tons of fuel.* This rating will be especially helpful if you get stuck in traffic.

As for the S-Class, you'll find an EPA-estimated 21 city/30 highway MPG. While this is impressive, the city rating falls below the BMW model's, making it slightly less efficient on tight urban streets.


Interior Features: 2022 BMW 7 Series vs S-Class

Of course, no matter how far or long your drive is, you'll want to be comfortable for the ride. These sedans have tons of amazing features meant to enhance your drive.

To start, the Mercedes-Benz S-Class has a standard dual-zone automatic climate control system, allowing two different temperatures to be set within the cabin. The 2022 S-Class also includes massaging, power, and ventilated front seats as standard.

The BMW 7 Series has similar standard features, such as heated front seats, armrests, and steering wheel. This model also includes power multi-contour front seats with front massaging features and available ventilated front seats. However, you'll also find:

  • Available rear ventilated seats
