Properly green and even more luxurious - that’s the promise the spanking new straight-six diesel engine in Mercedes-Benz’s refreshed-for-2018 S-Class makes.
The two exhaust vents on the rear bumper of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class S350d are fake. I say this with certainty because I went sniffing for diesel fumes and looking for sooty exhaust. A closer inspection revealed that the single exhaust was tucked away on the left, behind the bumper. There were no tell-tale signs to have spotted it without having poked my head underneath. The S350d is a big statement from Mercedes as it packs the first diesel engine in India capable of meeting BSVI emission norms while being compatible with BSIV fuel.
