Look at the list of the safety features in most any car today, and you’ll be looking into the history of Mercedes -Benz. That’s because our engineers have been leading the
way in safety for more than 60 years, about the time they invented the first crumple zone — just one of more than 80,000 patents recorded in the history of Mercedes-Benz.
In the 1970s, they earned a patent for the air bag. And in the decades to follow, they pioneered a portfolio of safety breakthroughs that went on to become the standards of
the entire industry — like the Antilock Braking System (ABS), Electronic Stability Program (ESP
®
) and emergency-sensing Brake Assist. When you examine the 2013 E -Class,
you’ll discover much more than these well-known safety milestones. You’ll see first- of-their-kind advancements that do more than predict tomorrow’s cars, they also help
to protect your own tomorrow, and your family’s — starting now. Its PRE-SAFE
®
system can detect and help prepare for a collision before it happens. ATTENTION ASSIST
can sense a drowsy driver. As you drive on a rainy highway, the brakes intelligently act to disperse water buildup. And should any of the nine air bags deploy, the standard
mbrace
®
system can automatically place a call for help.

Far more than a list of features, every E -Class is an orchestrated safety system — engineered to make the most of
the precious milliseconds it takes to avoid, or survive, a collision. Looking into the future, whether by decades or seconds, is one way Mercedes -Benz looks out for yours.
THE SAFETY STANDARDS OF TOMORROW
ARE BORN AT MERCEDES-BENZ TODAY. PROTECTING YOUR LEGACY HAS LONG BEEN PART OF OURS.
