2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class Cabriolet First Spy Photos

The fabric roof will be taken from the Ocean Drive Concept, however the production model will only have two doors not four

Back in June, we told you about the distinct possibility that Mercedes was in the process of developing a two-door S-Class Cabriolet.  Thanks to the latest spy photos, we can confirm that yes, Mercedes is in the testing stages with their 2014 S-Class Cabriolet that is likely based on their Ocean Drive concept that was shown publically in 2007.

The fabric roof will be taken from the Ocean Drive Concept, however the production model will have only two doors instead of the concept’s four.

As for the engine choices in the S-Class convertible, we expect to see only a few of the engine options that are otherwise available in the standard S-Class model.  The one engine we are pretty positive we will see however, is the V12 AMG.

The 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class Cabriolet will compete with models like the BMW 6-Series and the Bentley Continental Supersports Convertible.

2013 Mercedes-Benz S-Class Cabrio Rumors

Drawing inspiration from the Ocean Drive Concept, the production S-Class Convertible will likely be a two-door with cloth top

The next-generation Mercedes-Benz S-Class will include a convertible variant. Could it be true this time, will Mercedes actually produce a model similar to the one they teased us with way back in 2007. Reports are in that Mercedes wants to compete and fill the gap in the range where Maybach was.

Those in the know at Mercedes revealed to CarAdvice that the S-Class convertible will be based on the company’s Ocean Drive concept, the concept revealed to us back in 2007. Taking its folding fabirc roof from the Ocean Drive, but the production S-Class Cabrio will instead be a two-door.

We can also expect the new S-Class convertible to feature the company’s Airscarf neck-warming technology. Debuted in the 2004 on the Mercedes SLK roadster, the system pumps warm air through vents incorporated into the seats, in the S-Class, it will likely be pumped to all four seats.

Engine options in the S-Class convertible will likely be limited compared to the standard model however, expect to see a diesel and powerful V12 in the mix.
