2027 Mercedes-Benz S-Class crash-test ratings
We did not find NHTSA 5-Star Safety Ratings for the 2027 Mercedes-Benz S-Class (checked Oct 26, 2026). NHTSA does not test every model every year; see nhtsa.gov/ratings.
Star ratings compare vehicles of similar size and weight; a frontal rating for a large pickup is not directly comparable with one for a small car.
