At any speed above 37 mph, the system recognizes lane markings, thanks to a small camera in the windshield and a computer that analyzes the video images. Extending the driver's ability to see ahead to nearly 500 feet, Night View Assist PLUS uses an infra-red camera in the windshield and displays the reflected images as highly detailed black & white video images in the COMAND display. Also standard is a COMAND system featuring a large seven-inch color display screen with a standard in-dash, six-disc CD/DVD changer and a Bluetooth interface that allows a phone still in a pocket or purse to be operated through the car's audio system. Using a console-mounted controller, the central display can be operated by either the driver or front passenger. The E-Class now comes with a new knee air bag for the driver that minimizes leg injuries in frontal collisions, while new pelvic air bags work with the existing curtain and side air bags to provide extra protection for front passengers in dangerous side-impact collisions.
The ELEGANCE version already comes, among other things, with bi-xenon headlamps, adaptive ILS (Intelligent Light System), electric sliding sunroof, automatic air conditioning and COMAND DVD system. Gear shifts are handled by the 7G-Tronic Plus seven-speed automatic. The optional Distronic Plus system now includes Blind Spot Assist, which monitors both blind spots alongside the vehicle. When the E-Class is equipped with the optional Distronic Plus system, another revolutionary Mercedes-Benz safety feature - PRE-SAFE brake - can now apply full braking automatically in emergencies, to reduce accident severity. 14-way adjustable power front seats feature stylish divided seat cushions that cover steel seat frames featuring their own suspension. The E-Class Wagon is the only vehicle in its market segment to feature seven-place seating. While the new E-Class Wagon is styled more like a traditional sedan than an SUV, it boasts outstanding utility. Combined with front airbags, the E-Class now boasts nine supplemental restraints, and rear side air bags are optionally available.
Additional highlights of the E260 CGI AVANTGARDE version includeselectric panoramic sliding sunroof, COMANDAPS with DVD changer, THERMATIC air conditioning system, heated rear seats and residual heat system. E260 CGI ELEGANCE, E260 CGI AVANTGARDE and E300 AVANTGARDE are the three appointment lines which will be available for the long version of the Mercedes-Benz E-Class when it launches in China. In fact, you can even purchase auto parts and accessories online and try to replicate the quality of Mercedes-Benz, but you will never be able to replicate their greatness with another vehicle. A co-signer, a co-applicant and a single auto loan application are all your possible options. Mercedes-Benz is launching 2011 Mercedes-Benz E350 4Matic Wagon at the 2010 New York International Auto Show, open to the public April 2-11, 2010 at the Jacob Javits Center in Manhattan. Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week New York looks back on a long tradition. An optional Drive-Dynamic multicontour seat for the driver uses a series of air bladders and mechanical bolsters in the bottom cushion and seat back to offer impressively variable seat adjustments.
Stuttgart, Jun 23, 2008 - In 1946, when production was resumed under difficult conditions after the end of the war, Mercedes-Benz fell back on proven engines from the prewar range. After making his final stop, and dropping to second behind Fernando Alonso, Lewis resumed the lead once the Spaniard had made his final stop and maintained his advantage over the chasing Toyota of Timo Glock. Michael’s stop followed just under five seconds later and he was held whilst we sorted out the problem to ensure there was not a reoccurrence. There are several muscle cars from Europe and even Australia, such as the HSV (Holden's special vehicle division) GEN-F Clubsport R8 (which shares the engine from the ZL1 and Corvette), the Jaguar F-Type V8 S (a little more refined, but still great at burnouts), and the Mercedes-Benz SL63 AMG (also, a little more race-car than drag-race car, but still worth looking at if you're in the market).
