It is even possible for the car to drive itself at times. This should help to prevent accidents when the driver is distracted. It will react when there are obstacles ahead, by warning the driver, flashing the headlights and even braking automatically. With these cameras, the car can actually see, well to some extent. Mercedes have reported that this reduction could be as much as 2.1g/km. These reductions cut power use and therefore CO2 use. The rear lights can also be varied with regards to their light intensity. There is even a system where animals and pedestrians will be automatically spotlighted so that the driver is aware of these hazards in the dark. The car will have all LED lights of which the front ones will dim automatically when traffic is seen ahead. This means that rather than the driver adjusting suspension, that happens in some cars, this will now be completely automatic.Īnother unique feature is the lack of light bulbs. The S-class will have Magic Ride Control which involves front facing cameras analysing the road conditions ahead and changing the damping rates accordingly. There will also be a slightly smaller version which will have lots of rear legroom and compete with the Rolls-Royce Ghost. The 6500mm will be able to seat two extra people but will not be an MPV, but have two rear facing seats which will fold away when not in use. It is expected that there will be four sizes of saloon with the regular and long wheelbase being joined by two longer versions due to demand from markets such as the Chinese, who are frantically buying up the longer European saloon vehicles. There are expected to be some interesting changes that will be expected with the new S-class. Many people are much more interested in what will be inside the car though and this cannot be seen in the photos. The latest photos of it while being tested have revealed the look of the grille and it seems to be very much inspired by the F700 concept car from 2008. This means that spy shots can show a lot more detail these days. With it arriving in June, then the testing is coming close to the end and the car is in a very much less disguised form when out and about. There is not too long to wait until we will see the new Mercedes S-Class on the market.
