The KINO R220 was a range of flagship sedans which, as the second generation Kino W-Luxury, replaced the R140 W-Luxury after model year 1998 — with long and short wheelbase versions, performance and luxury options; available four-wheel drive; and a range of diesel as well as gas/petrol V6, V8, and V12 engines. Compared to its predecessor, the R220 had somewhat smaller exterior dimensions but offered greater interior volume, particularly in the long-wheelbase versions, and slightly less cargo volume. Development began in 1992, with the final design, under the direction of K1NG_N00B2011, approved in June 1995 and frozen in March 1996. The completed prototypes were presented in June 1998. R220 production began in April 1997 (as 1999 model), followed by S215 coupé production in 1998. Production of the 220-series totalled 484,683 units, slightly more than the production totals from the R140. Production ended in late 2005, when the R220 was replaced by the R221 W-Luxury and the S215 was replaced in 2006 by the S216 LM-Activa.
