Mercedes-Benz 450 SEL

The Mercedes-Benz 450 SEL belongs to the W116-generation S-Class, which was produced from 1972 to 1980 and is considered the brand's first officially designated S-Class series. With this model, Mercedes-Benz emphatically positioned itself in the top segment of the international car market. Within this series, the Mercedes-Benz 450 SEL came as a version with an extended wheelbase, which offered additional interior space compared to the standard variants.

Within the W116 series, the Mercedes-Benz 450 SEL occupied a prominent place due to its eight-cylinder configuration and the use of modern safety and comfort technologies that were characteristic of the brand at the time. The W116 was known for its attention to passive safety, including a reinforced passenger cell and well-thought-out crumple zones. This model series also saw the first widespread use of innovative systems that later became commonplace in the upper segment.

The Mercedes-Benz 450 SEL was delivered worldwide and featured different versions depending on market and production years. A total of over 470,000 units were produced within the W116 series, making this generation an important part of the development of the S-Class as a fixture within the Mercedes-Benz model range. The extended SEL variants distinguished themselves by their proportions and positioning within the top segment of their time.
