Inden Design, a German based tuning firm, unveiled their latest package that aims to make the Mercedes-Benz S500 (W221) look more like the S65 AMG.

Daytime running lights are added to the tuned S-Class in addition to the retouch taillights and side mirrors. Also on the exterior, a new front spoiler, rear diffuser with integrated quad exhaust pipes and updated side sills. To finished it off, the Mercedes S500 receives an updated paint job with a charcoal gray matte film.

In terms of engine tuning, there is a power upgrade to 420 PS (309 kW / 414 bhp) up from the S-Class’ 388 PS (285 kW / 383 bhp) on the 5.5 liter V8 Engine. This is in part thanks to the new stainless-steel exhaust system with AMG pipes.

Brakes are also upgraded to the same found on the S600 V12 BiTurbo with 6-piston calipers for the front wheels and 4-piston brake calipers on the rear axle.

50 mm suspension lowering can also be seen on the new INDEN Design S-Class and really helps to highlight the new 20-inch wheels with 265/30-20 tires at the front and 275/30-20 tires for the rear rims.

For the interior, INDEN Design added a two-tone leather and Alcantara finish for the headliner, door panels and all three pillars along with carbon inserts replacing the former wood trims. Also, a new speedometer now reads up to 360 km/h.
