Industry‑leading lighting.
The world’s first full‑LED active
headlamps, part of the Premium 1
Package, generate light that’s even
closer to natural daylight than the
standard Bi ‑Xenon lamps. Active Curve
Illumination and Adaptive Highbeam
Assist continuously vary the beam
pattern of the LED headlamps, to
maximize illumination of corners and
straightaways without creating glare
for other drivers. LED Daytime Running
Lamps and LED taillamps are also
included as standard equipment.
Added vision in the dark of night.
During nighttime driving, optional Night View
Assist PLUS projects infrared beams that
are invisible to the eye, and then reads them
with a special camera. The system displays
a clearer, supplemental real‑time view of
the road ahead on the large screen that’s
positioned high in the dash. Its advanced
technology can also help identify and point
out pedestrians along a dark roadway.

Reveal, prepare, react.
Far more than a list of groundbreaking safety innovations, a
Mercedes-Benz is engineered as an integrated system that’s designed
to help you detect, avoid and survive a collision like no other car.
Pioneers of accident avoidance.
First introduced by Mercedes‑Benz, two systems
to help you avoid potential collisions have since
been adopted by virtually every automaker. The
Electronic Stability Program (ESP
®
) monitors the
car’s response to driving inputs such as steering
and braking, and responds when needed to help
keep the car on course.
5
Brake Assist (BAS
®
) can
instantly maximize braking pressure if it detects
an emergency braking situation — potentially
shortening your overall stopping distance.
7
Brakes that boost confidence and comfort.
The 4‑wheel disc brakes integrate technology to
help make driving more reassuring and relaxing.
If you lift off the accelerator quickly, Predictive
Brake Priming sets the pads closer to the discs
for quicker response when you apply the brakes.
In the rain, Automatic Brake Drying periodically
applies the brakes just enough to sweep away
water buildup on the discs. During uphill starts,
Hill‑Start Assist helps to prevent unwanted
rollback. And a brake HOLD feature can help to
make driving in stop‑and‑go traffic less stressful.
7
Protection that starts before a collision.
Another Mercedes‑Benz first, PRE‑SAFE
®
can
help detect instability during certain vehicle
maneuvers that suggest that a collision or
rollover is imminent. It can then tighten the front
seat belts, adjust the front passenger seat, and
close the windows and sunroof — all in an effort
to better prepare the occupants and restraint
systems in the moments before a collision.
8
Cruise control that slows, stops and goes.
Optional DISTRONIC PLUS
®
adaptive cruise
control is also a Mercedes‑Benz innovation.
Using radar‑based technology, it can adapt
your set speed in response to the flow of traffic
ahead — automatically slowing until your path is
clear again. If the vehicle ahead slows to a stop,
DISTRONIC PLUS can brake to a full halt, then
resume automatically when traffic starts going.
9
An alert, and action, for stopped traffic.
Included with DISTRONIC PLUS, PRE‑SAFE Brake
can help to detect an impending collision with
a vehicle ahead. Even if you’re not using cruise
control, it can sound an alert and automatically
apply up to 100% of the car’s braking force to
help reduce the severity of impact.
7
A network of advanced restraints.
Ten standard air bags offer 12‑way protection.
10
Knee air bags, pelvic air bags and side‑impact
air bags are provided for each front seat. Side
curtain air bags add protection at all four seating
positions. In a rear impact, NECK‑PRO
®
active
front head restraints help to reduce whiplash.
Help when you need it most.
The standard Mercedes‑Benz mbrace
®
system
11
includes Automatic Collision Notification, which
places a call for help if an air bag or seat‑belt
Emergency Tensioning Device is activated.
Your car even transmits its location, model and
color information. The CLS also activates its
emergency flashers, unlocks the doors and turns
on some interior lights to assist rescuers.
