  • Maintains the desired speed for you.

    You won't want to be without the convenience of Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC in either flowing or stop-and-go traffic. The system takes the strain off you by automatically adapting your own speed to that of slower-moving vehicles in front. The desired distance can be set in several stages.

  • Gets you back on track.

    Active Lane Keeping Assist can warn you by means of steering wheel vibrations if you inadvertently drive over lane markings. If there is still no reaction, or in dangerous situations, the system can also intervene actively with course-correcting steering intervention to bring you back into lane.

  • PRE-SAFE® Plus

    Identifying the risk of a rear-end collision and activating PRE-SAFE ®. PRE-SAFE® PLUS can identify the risk of a rear-end collision for you, warns the traffic behind you by flashing your rear warning lights, applies the brakes to the vehicle while stationary to reduce forward motion and, by extension, minimise the impact on its passengers and the risk of secondary collisions. In addition, the reversible PRE-SAFE® seatbelt tensioners can be activated right before the collision.

  • Frontal airbags for the rear-seat passengers.

    Innovative air cushions make travelling in the rear an even safer experience. The  rear airbags are integrated into the backrests of the front seats and deploy in the event of a severe frontal impact. They unfold gently to protect passengers in the outer seats wearing seatbelts against contact with the front seats. In this way the head and neck can be subjected to significantly lower loads.

    Only available as optional equipment for the long version of the S-Class – illustration similar.
  • Provides the driver with transparency on their attention level.

    The standard-fit ATTENTION ASSIST drowsiness detection system can detect typical signs of fatigue or growing inattentiveness on the part of the driver on long, monotonous journeys and take action of its own accord to warn them. In conjunction with the optionally available, new 3D driver display or MBUX augmented reality head-up display, the latest generation of ATTENTION ASSIST goes another stage further: an additional warning is given if the system detects typical signs of an acute microsleep with the help of the driver camera.
