The traditional view of a Luxury vehicle has been what Jeremy Clarkson of Top Gear best put it, as, Look at the current S-Class, and in decades worth of time, those same features will trickle down to the mass/economy offerings of the car market.
Back when that was said, the S class was leading the way by means of its 5th gen w221 series. Now days the ground breaking features of the S-Class do not feel so special, dare I say exclusive. Mercedes have LED headlights and semi autonmous driving modes in its S class, but so does a basic toyota Corolla.
Has has the definition of what defines a Luxury brand changed, and has it changed due to the more rapid R&Ding, cheaper tech, etc etc?
