These three cars have been icons of class, status, and opulence for decades. They are the most luxurious limousines from Europe and some of Germany's most impressive cars. The Mercedes S560 is the benchmark of success, the Audi A8 is the perfect culmination of convenience and comfort, and the BMW is a fun and sporting alternative with an elaborate level of luxury and amenities.
Which would you have? BMW 7 Series vs Audi A8 vs Mercedes S Class?
Special THANK YOU to International Autos Mercedes-Benz, Audi, and BMW in Milwaukee, WI for providing the cars for this review!! They are awesome people, super easy to work with, and always make sure I have the best cars to show you guys!

I’ll take the Audi. It’s a luxury car that unabashedly refined and calm. And it’s understated, which the BMW fails at miserably. The Merc is practically a meme at this point. i want a calm, capable and relaxing luxury car.

Hi, I really liked the video and the comparison. I have seen pictures of the new Audi and found it interesting. But after watching your video I see its not for me. I would like to see you go a little more in-depth on BMW's instrument cluster features and compare it to the Mercedes. As much as I like the Mercedes I see the BMW is more about what I'm looking for in a car. Thank you for doing the video. I also subscribed, good job.

I have the 750 2018. You compared exec packages to a non exec 750. The 750 exec package has rear passenger tablets and one center controlling back passenger tablet and center controlled back passenger recliners. Reclining back seats heated , ventilated and massaging seats. With sun shades for all back windows and ambient lighting sky lounge in both roofs. You basically took the starting trim level of the 750 and was shitting on it from the beginning of the review. Very, very, biased review and not reliable whatsoever. All 3 offers the same features its just that bmw packaged it up in one go. Which has packages instead of different models exclusion would be the 740 which is a short-base model and of the course the m packaged m760. At that price point none of them really offers features the the other doesn't have for the majority of the deal. I drove all 3 and even though i love my 750 the merc indeed flaunted its luxuriousness more. The audi was bland and its all touch screen dynamic sucked because if smudged it it became sometimes unresponsive. The bmw was my fave because the driving dynamic was insane and it took off like a mf rocket compared to the other 2. Also You compared the 560 to a stock 750 which is absurd. The 560 is the same model as the 500 with basically all features thats included like tablets, passenger recliner, etc while the 750 stock compares more to the s500 and the exec is the 560-580 competitor. The M760i is the competitor to the s63. Cant say to much idk about audi cause in general they are just bland and boring to me. The only audi that caught my eye and still does until this day is the 2018 rs7. The 19 and up they again made the car look bland and boring. (IMO) Make sure you review the right models please!! Wish the XJL was still here cause if so they would of probably beat all 3 of them.

@@ciw8688 luxurious yes, but the bmw is also luxurious also. Also in 2023 the 750 2016 G11 body aged gracefully while the sclass didn't. Imo not only because I own a 750 exec but without any biasing I prefer the 750. Its still has high luxury and the driving dynamics are insane. I can turn recommended 30mph turn at 60 with ease even though its big as a boat with no loss of steering. Not only that I have an old Iphone thats jailbroken with carbridge and the back tablets also display my carplay with youtube while driving. That alone is high premium in my eyes.

I have the 7 Series which replaced my 2016 S-Class when the lease was up. I find both to be excellent drivers, but the systems in the BMW are poor for the most part and I will be switching back to the S-Class at first opportunity, to me it is a superior vehicle. I tried the A8, nice, but with only a V6 it felt like driving the others with the handbrake on - way too weak for this class - needs V8.

👍👍👍 Amazing review! Amazing cars. Mercedes still held its own against its newer little brothers. That model was at the end of its life cycle. The 2024 Mercedes S class will destroy these other 2! Especially with the Maybach package! 🎆 its lightyear ahead in comfort technology and luxury. But out of these 3 probably the BMW. I'm more of a Mercedes guy but that new body, mean grille and sport handling just gets me. It makes this Merc look outdated. And audi doesn't stand a chance. They sell less units. Finger prints everywhere! We still want buttons. Not all touch screen. Audi has no reliability. And its just a dressed up Volkswagen with the engine lights always coming on 😂 great review 👍

I would think 🤔 if comparing a loaded Audi and Mercedes shouldn’t you also include a loaded Bmw.....and besides you make it seems as if Bmw doesn’t offer the option that audi has. The best place to be is in a fully loaded Bmw which and is first to offer what audi have and more eg.... desk, sky light in sun roof, fridge, touch screens and much much more. If you’re doing a comparison...do a fair one ☝️. Bmw would be the best because of styling, performance and tons of technologies to keep you entertain thur your journey. Second would be Audi because it got the best suspension, and interior and also as more technology than benz. Third is Mercedes comfort, style and boring 😴😴😴😴.

There was too much bias in this video from the start. Your opinion on each car was predictable and repetitive and you really failed to mention important information, such as the key tech differences in each vehicle and mainly the different packages available for each one. Instead of just reviewing the cars you could get, you should be precise on what is available for each vehicle. In this video you got a base model 7 series and compared it to it’s almost fully optioned rivals. If you can’t get a dealership to give you an optioned out 750Li, the least you can do is inform the viewers on how it could have all the lounging options with the screens at the back and the control of the front passenger seat just like the other 2 vehicles. This video was simply you trying to use fancy words to look like a professional car reviewer but really you were just speaking nonsense.
