profile settings the moment you get inside
•
With Digital Lights you can experience ideal lighting conditions – optimally
adjusted to other road users and the surrounding conditions.
•
Leather interiors in new three different shades of offering in waterfall
design.
•
Rear massage seats functionality provide the best comfort levels and 10
different massage programs to choose from.
•
Front seat kinetics are provided for tireless long drives
•
The Burmester 3D surround sound systemwith total output of 710 Watts.
Sophisticated vehicle noise compensation (VNC) adjusts music and sound
dynamically to driving conditions.
•(19-inches
multi-twin-spoke light-alloy wheels aerodynamically optimized, painted in black
with a high-sheen finish, with 255/45 R 19 tyres on 8.5J x 19 ET31.5 wheels.
•
With safety always on top, the new S-Class now also has the Driving Assistance
Package 5.0, latest generation the with new and improved functions
Production
highlights of the ‘Made in India, for India’ S-Class:
•
More than 80 control units: More than 80 control units are electronically
tested and initialized using state-of-art mobile testers in the New S-Class
•
Use of ML and AI in enhancing testing systems: The diagnosis system in the
S-Class is used for detecting unusual behaviour of the electronic systems with
the help of well- developed algorithms that simulate customer behaviour. These
algorithms are being enhanced continuously using machine learning and artificial
intelligence techniques for robust testing systems
•
Contactless Wheel Alignment Process: To enrich driving experience, contactless
wheel alignment process is now introduced which guarantees automatic wheel
alignment and ride height calibration for the AIRMATIC suspension systems.
Thereby providing the customers with seamless transition between economy,
comfort or sports suspensions
•
New assembly process for the seamless door handles: The seamless door handles
are a key attraction of the new S-Class. A completely new assembly process for
seamless door handle fitment has been developed for ensuring enhanced customer
comfort & aerodynamics of the car
Innovation
and new technology used in New S-Class production
•
Use of new generation gluing robots: A new generation of gluing robots is now
used which ensures a quick assembly process in addition to ensuring air-tight
joints between the glass and the metal body parts, which results in quieter
cabin with superior comfort and adds to the safety
•
New compact VIN engraving machine: This ensures security & easy
accessibility to the customer
•
Lesser NVH: New standards in drive train assembly and their marriage with the
passenger cabin have been implemented for the first time, resulting in lesser
vibrations and noise during driving
•
New braking system:The new braking system now provides faster reaction to the
press of the pedal. This has been made possible with the aid of a new
technology filling system that entails vacuum based filling & testing
process, which are controlled with a closed loop electronic feedback system.
The subsequent dynamometer brake test simulates customer behaviour at multiple
rpms and torques to ensure that the vehicle responds quickly and safely in all
driving situations
