Key Safety Features in Mercedes-Benz Vehicles
New Mercedes-Benz vehicles are equipped with a suite of top-notch safety features that provide peace of mind on every journey. Here are some of the standout technologies:
- PRE-SAFE®: This patented system anticipates potential collisions by using a network of sensors. It tightens seatbelts, adjusts headrests and closes windows within seconds. Newer models even emit pink noise to protect your hearing during an impact.
- Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC®: This feature maintains a selectable distance between your Mercedes-Benz and the vehicle ahead. It automatically adjusts speed as traffic slows or stops, acting as an additional set of hands on the road.
- ATTENTION ASSIST®: Long drives can lead to fatigue. ATTENTION ASSIST® monitors your interaction with vehicle controls and detects steering corrections that indicate drowsiness, prompting you to take a rest when needed.
- Adaptive Highbeam Assist: Utilizing a dedicated camera, this system scans the road for the lights of other vehicles and adjusts the headlamps to maximize illumination without causing glare.
- Night View Assist PLUS: This feature uses infrared beams and a special camera to provide a real-time view of the road ahead, highlighting pedestrians and cold objects that may not be visible with thermal systems.
- LED Intelligent Light System: With numerous LEDs per headlamp, this system offers illumination similar to natural daylight. It adjusts the beam's direction and distance based on your steering, speed and surrounding traffic.
Mercedes-Benz Safety Technologies for Peace of Mind
