You recently purchased a Mercedes luxury car and are curious about the significance of the S designation. In a Mercedes with the S designation, it denotes Sport mode. The Sport version is designed to have your vehicle start in first gear and then shift gears as you reach high RPMs. In contrast, non-Sport editions will start in second gear and D1, known as "comfort mode". The Sport model offers increased power, speed, and precision during acceleration and gear shifts.
