No less than 103,074 Auto Zeitung readers had to vote for their favorite cars from 400 different models.

The Mercedes-Benz star shined in both the luxury class and the executive class, with the S-Class and E-Class easily surpassing their segment competitors in terms of reader votes.

On top of that, Auto Zeitung also gave Mercedes-Benz the Auto Trophy for the best advertising in the “Classic Remise” in Düsseldorf.

Obviously, the 2014 S-Class W222 received the best-in-class distinction because it has always been seen as the best car in the world and the trend-setter for technological progress in the automotive world.

The recently-facelifted E-Class W212 benefitted from the most expensive mid-cycle refresh in history, with over one billion Euros being invested in the entire E-class range, so it's no wonder that Auto Zeitung readers see it as the best in its segment.
