I like the idea of an S-class hybrid vs. LS-series hybrid matchup...there's room up there and the new S-class is growing on me...plus Benz playing catchup validates Lexus' decision to go with the LS hybrid, to some degree (sales are a big uncertainty here though)
The new S-class is nice, I haven't yet seen the New LS in person...and the LS 600h L looks phenomenal.
What will the S-class hybrid designation be?

Like spwolf said, it's no comparison. The LS600h L is expected to put out V12 power (~500hp) while the S-Class is based on a V6 with a mild hybrid drivetrain.
