The boot floor is in the form of a polyurethane honeycomb plate instead of the wood plate previously used. The passenger’s foot plate has been switched over to plastic from steel, saving 1.5 kg in weight. The fibre-optic cables with three colour options to choose from stretch between the beltline and the door centre panel in one tier over virtually the entire length of the door, behind the trim on the dashboard and in the front panelling. The rear-axle subframe consists of high-strength steel with adapted panel thicknesses. The occupants can operate it via the central control panel and the head unit. Wheel bolts with a weight-optimised head. The steering wheel featuring a flattened bottom section has an ergonomic grip area and galvanised spokes, and is covered with nappa leather - in the airbag section, too. Active multicontour seat package: three air chambers in the lumbar area can vary the contour of the seats in order to prevent fatigue.
They can use them to determine whether the windscreen has misted up. Suitability for everyday use is a key word which is traditionally taken extremely seriously at Mercedes-Benz - even in the case of vehicles designed to be very sporty. At the press of a button, the roof elements stowed in the boot can be tilted upwards by about 25 degrees to make loading and unloading easier - as was the case in the predecessor (Easy-Pack system). Only when the cover is adjusted to the rear can the vario-roof be opened. A lockable rear box behind the driver’s seat creates additional stowage space. Using the memory buttons, the current seat position can be stored, and on the driver’s side this also applies to the positions of the steering wheel and exterior mirror. They include a window demisting sensor integrated in the base of the interior mirror. The Chassis also has a 3 year/36,000 mile base limited warranty and a 5 year/100,000 mile limited diesel engine components warranty through Mercedes.
There are also more engine options to choose from. Even in the standard equipment there are extensive electrical adjustment options available for doing so, enabling fore-and-aft and height adjustment to be made just as easily as the seat cushion angle, cushion depth and backrest angle adjustment. A button on the shoulder of the backrest operates the backrest lock electrically and enables the seats to be moved forwards and backwards in order to create sufficient room to manoeuvre. The range of equipment also includes 4-way lumbar support adjustment - this feature is housed in the centre section of the backrest cover. A large COMAND colour display in the centre of the vehicle takes care of the numerous display functions for the entertainment, communication and navigation facilities. We want to take care of you from start to finish, and we will always take the time to treat you right. Mercedes-Benz Malaysia (MBM) is relaunching its premium sedan, this time in locally-assembled (CKD) flavour.
Audi is determined for the next-generation A8 to be as plush as the Mercedes-Benz S-Class while still offering involving driving dynamics. More worrying is the accidents involving Benz 207 buses. The ergonomically optimised seats themselves are more slender than in the predecessor and emphasise the noble, sporty character. Thanks to this tailor-made cable harness, additional weight in the form of wires which are surplus to requirements can be saved - to the tune of up to 0.4 kg. The designers have also thought the details through: smaller but useful items can be fixed in place by a net on the centre tunnel of the passenger’s footwell. Sprinter owners finally have an option for a luxury air suspension seat! Also part of the standard specification is a seat occupancy sensor with automatic child seat recognition on the front-passenger side - for child seats with a transponder specially approved for Mercedes-Benz. THIS VEHICLE HAS AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, V6, 3.0L; TURBO ENGINE WITH 16019 MILES.
There's no torque converter as would normally be found in an automatic transmission, and low-speed driving can cause some odd sensations, but we didn't find it objectionable. The compressor and the TIREFIT filler bottle are housed in a stowage compartment in front of the recess which can be accessed by lifting up the boot floor. A luggage cover which can be adjusted lengthwise with a handle prevents pieces of luggage from colliding with roof elements in the boot when opening the roof. There is always room for stowing luggage or two golf bags without any problems at all, thanks to the optimised boot design. Located in front of these controls is the lidded compartment for the two cup holders. Brakes and pedals. Optimised brake cooling eliminates the need for large and thus heavy brake discs on the front axle. Axles. The four-link front axle had already undergone extensive weight optimisation for the preceding model, featuring steering knuckles and spring links made of aluminium.
