Starting on July 20, people can check out the new S-Class models to see what’s new.
“The S-Class is the technological spearhead not only of Mercedes-Benz but of automotive development per se,” said Dr. Joachim Schmidt, Mercedes-Benz Board of Management member in charge of Sales and Marketing. “And has been for decades.”
Three key aspects are focused on in the new S-Class. There’s ‘Intelligent Drive’, ‘Efficient Technology’, and ‘The Essence of Luxury’.
Intelligent Drive represents the fusion of comfort and safety, as represented by new safety and assistance systems. Efficient Technology refers to various measures and technologies used to make the car more efficient.
