These cars don't seem to have a strong collector following yet, and prices are still generally low. Compared with aluminium, the weight saving is still around 30 percent, while the material is considerably thinner. The basis for CFRP construction is provided by fine carbon fibres, ten times thinner than a human hair. The new app which searches for car parks calls up the current occupancy of multi-storey car parks in real time, as well as other information such as opening times and charges. This component, with extremely short cycle times in an industrially oriented manufacturing process, already demonstrates what will be possible in the future. In a world first, the new 7G-Tronic transmission will be available as an option for a van with effect from this spring. While talking to Mercedes Sprinter van reminds potency, manufacturing excellence and consistency that make people buy or rent, sometimes for hire as well. The most expensive wheel of the Mercedes Benz car is RS-8 which costs around 950 Euro.

The sportiest version of the R-Class with a diesel engine accelerates from 0 to 100 km in 7.6 seconds (0 to 60 mph in 7.5 seconds) and reaches a top speed of 235 km/h (146 mph). At the same time, the Sprinter can call on the appropriate gear for every driving situation with only small shifts in engine speed between the different ratios. The same applies to the modular high-voltage battery. The same goes for the control systems. Their sensors have to be tuned with absolute precision to ensure that the systems are always ready to intervene with corrective measures - regardless of how hostile the operating conditions may be. The Sprinter 3500 box truck is a less common variant that may very well be overlooked on most fuel trials.
At high speeds, however, it is able to run at low revs and so benefit from fuel savings, low emissions and quiet operation. This fuel saving also results in a reduction in CO2 emissions. The favourable fuel consumption achieved with the BlueEFFICIENCY package is particularly impressive: for Sprinter models with a permissible gross vehicle weight of 3.5 tonnes and a four-cylinder diesel engine, the combined consumption (depending on the model variant and axle ratio) is as low as 7.6 litres per 100 km. The weight advantages achieved through the carbon-fibre battery monocoque are reflected in the agility of the SLS AMG E-CELL and, in conjunction with the highly innovative wheel-selective four-wheel drive system, ensure true driving enjoyment. The trailblazing body shell structure of the SLS AMG E-CELL is part of the ambitious "AMG Lightweight Performance" design strategy. Another technical feature of this considerable performance is the intelligent parallel circuit of the individual battery modules - this also helps to maximise the safety, reliability and service life of the battery.
This helps to preserve the overall service life of the battery. In low external temperatures, the battery is quickly brought up to operating temperature with the aid of an electric heating element. In extremely high external temperatures, the cooling circuit for the battery can be additionally boosted with the aid of the air conditioning system. Two low-temperature cooling circuits ensure that the four electric motors and the power electronics are maintained at an even operating temperature. In 2014, sales are already over 17% up on last year. It’s undergone a few aesthetic rethinks over the years but the most significant advances have been made beneath the surface. It’s so popular that the German automaker will soon bring it back for its second generation, which will follow hot on the heels of the recently unveiled 2019 A-Class. Speaking about this, the new unit, supervising almost every tiny corner of the car, will be the long-awaited myCOMAND(previewed in 2008, at the Mondial de l’Automobile in Paris, on the ConceptFASCINATION prototype model), with wireless internet capability and an ultra-friendly user interface, containing new or enhanced functions.
