Diesel engine
Roll up those sleeves and get stuck into the job to be done – while
sitting in the lap of luxury. Roll up the garage doors in the
morning ready to work hard – step out onto the red carpet at
night ready to play hard. View the rising sun from the driver’s
seat – and the setting sun from the reclining seat in the rear.
The new S-Class brings together the worlds of work and leisure
at a hitherto undreamed-of level. The choice of materials, the
degree of perfection and exclusivity in the interior surpass
expectations for a vehicle of this class. And it is simply in the
new S-Class’s DNA to shine with technical innovations hitherto
unseen in a car. The ultra-intelligent chassis seems to flatten
down the road ahead; the lighting, using new technologies
and a 360° sensor system, illuminates the surroundings with
a speed and precision never seen before. You will see it, sense
it and experience it for yourself: the new S-Class shows the way
ahead – to the future of autonomous driving.

It takes three extraordinary letters to crown a new S-Class: AMG, the fastest way to
the top. High-performance technologies which have earned their spurs in motor
racing are matched with systematically deployed lightweight materials. The result
is a unique combination of luxury saloon and super sports car: the new S 63 AMG.
As it is with the technologies, so it is with the materials: only the best, the truly
special are used. Carbon-fibre, for example – a material that, thanks to its minimal
weight and extreme rigidity, is extensively deployed in Formula 1 racing. Precisely
fashioned and finished by hand, it gives the interior of the new S 63 AMG an air
of exclusive sportiness.

Mercedes-Benz Intelligent Drive.
Look ahead. Think ahead.
Welcome to the automotive future. Which arrived a long time ago as far
as the new S-Class is concerned. Lay your hands on the steering wheel
and all your senses will link up. The cutting-edge on-board and external
sensor systems will see ahead for you, draw conclusions for you, react at
lightning speed and thereby prevent accidents. Thanks to radar sensors,
a stereo camera, powerful processors and technical assistant systems.
And years of unstinting research. A further milestone from Mercedes-Benz
along the path towards greater safety and comfort in road transport
and a significant step towards autonomous driving. What will the future
bring? The more research we do, the more perspectives that open up.
That’s how it is with visions. There comes a time when you need a new one.
Of and for the future.
32
Just a second!
33
Everyone has a view on whether it’s possible to predict what’s coming. Impossible,
many would say. A challenge, is what our R&D people reply. But actually,
our engineers were not happy with just seeing what’s about to happen: they had
the ground-breaking idea of wanting to influence the future through actions in
the present, for in this way they could help to prevent accidents ever happening.
You’ve surely been there before: you are concentrating on the road ahead,
when suddenly a shadow catches the corner of your eye...
In those few critical seconds you’re best off benefitting from the results of many
years of research. We have developed technologies that allow the vehicle to
keep an eye on everything around it. It can see things coming that we can at best
only guess at – for example, by calculating where moving objects will move to,
and when. Using a stereo camera system that can view things three-dimensionally,
in other words spatially. Just like a human can. But can then compute this
data so quickly that it is analysed in real time, and can forecast, for example,
the future position of a cyclist.
34
Masterpiece of chassis engineering.
35
What do you call something that’s ground-breaking? Something that’s prepared to leave
the tried and trusted behind, to reinvent it. Knowing that the real challenge always lies
ahead. Revolutionary? Innovative? Visionary? We call it MAGIC BODY CONTROL. This newly
developed chassis technology sets itself up in advance to deal with the road conditions
ahead. One could almost say, it relieves the road of its imperfections. This view of the
immediate future is achieved through a stereo camera, positioned behind the windscreen,
which observes the road from two perspectives. The huge amounts of data created are
transferred to and processed by the control unit for the chassis, in real time. With an
accuracy of one to two millimetres at 120 km/h and 25 images per second. The chassis
accordingly regulates the amount of oil needed in each of the separately controllable
spring struts. In this way the bumps in the road can be almost completely absorbed.
At a speed of 130 km/h. Even when cornering, the system always knows what lies ahead.
36
When you’re driving in the new S-Class, arriving is almost incidental. Both for you, and our
engineers too. Their aim for every journey is to create a space which becomes yours
when you move into it. In a seat that cools you or warms you as desired, and gently tilts
backwards until, relaxed and stretched out in the back, you rediscover the meaning of
generosity. The measure of all things, which adjusts itself to you, supports your legs and
bolsters your back. From the six massage programmes available, you select 15 therapeutic
minutes – relaxing you after what has been, reviving you for what’s still to be done. In an
exclusive workplace that offers you all you need to make you independent. You will find
the unobtrusive technologies at work here, which turn your trip into one of incomparable
comfort, intuitive to operate. And when you do get out, you are not just getting out of
a car, but of a space specially created for you: the new S-Class.
First Class Business Class.
38
Light has never been so directed.
39
There is not much we don’t try in our quest to revolutionise every
area of automotive engineering and be the first to bring new
technologies to the road. So why not put light in the spotlight,
and work on it until it is efficient and intelligent enough to be
fit for an S-Class? And we don’t just mean that the new LED-based
lighting technology must illuminate the road surface better,
the light temperature must be agreeable and the lights must
use up to 25 percent less energy compared to conventional
headlamps. S-Class lighting must do more than that. It must
interact with the various sensor and assistance systems, such
as the optional Adaptive Highbeam Assist Plus. With the result
that if an oncoming vehicle or a vehicle ahead is detected,
the area it occupies is simply blanked out in the main beam light
cones of the LED headlamps. And when at a standstill, at traffic
lights for example, the brake light is automatically toned down so
as not to dazzle anyone behind. The more than 190 single-chip
LEDs ensure even greater comfort and safety in traffic. So, light can
do a whole lot more than just be illuminating. In a Mercedes-Benz
at least.

Diesel and petrol engines.
The rule of the road today: you can’t have refinement without efficient technologies. Mercedes-Benz diesel and petrol engines are therefore lighter and measure out fuel extremely
precisely. In this way they bring together a sense of responsibility and commitment, without compromising on driving enjoyment – no matter what drive system you opt for.
V6 engine. Thanks to systematic lightweight construction,
fuel consumption in the S 350 BlueTEC can be as low
as 5.5 l per 100 km with an output of 190 kW (258 hp)
and a peak torque of 620 Nm. CO2 emissions are just
155–146 g/km. Plus the BlueTEC technology in the
6-cylinder engine reduces nitrogen oxide emissions substantially, meaning that the S 350 BlueTEC already meets
the strict requirements of the Euro-6 emissions standard.
V8 engine. Refinement, driving pleasure and responsibility
– embodied by the petrol engine with 335 kW (455 hp).
Thanks to twin turbocharging and intercooling, the S 500
has huge reserves of power and can accelerate from 0 to
100 km/h in only 4.8 seconds. The engine may give off its
typical, unmistakeably sonorous and cultivated sound,
but fuel consumption stays exceptionally low.
V12 engine. The range-topping V12 biturbo engine combines
immediate power delivery with environmental awareness.
It meets the requirements of the Euro-6 emissions standard
and features the ECO start/stop function. So it saves on
fuel without compromising its outstanding performance:
the torque of 830 Nm is delivered before the rev counter
even reaches 2000 rpm, and the 390 kW (530 hp) accelerate
the car from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.6 seconds.

Drive system and chassis
S 300 BlueTEC HYBRID and S 400 HYBRID.
The particularly efficient and environmentally responsible drive systems combine an internal combustion engine with an electric motor. The interaction of the engines is
controlled by high-performance, intelligent electronics. If the vehicle brakes, the electric motor becomes an alternator and produces electricity for the lithium-ion battery.
Environmentally responsible, comfortable and dynamic,
all at the same time – that is what is expected of a drive
system for the luxury class. In the S 300 BlueTEC HYBRID,
Mercedes-Benz combines the 2.2-litre 4-cylinder diesel
engine developing 150 kW (204 hp) with a powerful hybrid
module. Combined fuel consumption can be as low as
4.4 l per 100 km. These figures are possible thanks to
efficiency-enhancing measures such as intelligent light-
weight construction, tyres with low rolling resistance and
a drag coefficient (cd value) of 0.23.
with the hybrid module, allows fuel consumption as low
as 6.3 l per 100 km.
In the S 400 HYBRID, the enhanced 6-cylinder petrol
engine is supplemented by an hybrid module which is
compact, lightweight and torquey, and which is driven by
a high-capacity lithium-ion battery. This drive system
delivers an output of 225 kW (306 hp) and, in combination
The S 350 BlueTEC and S 400 HYBRID already meet the
requirements of the Euro-6 emissions standard. Furthermore,
both engines fulfil the strict criteria of efficiency class A and,

Transmission.
The consumption and efficiency-optimised 7G-TRONIC PLUS automatic transmission stands out by virtue of its high level of efficiency, ultra-smooth gear changing,
dynamic response and reduced noise levels.
7G-TRONIC PLUS. The 7-speed automatic transmission
combines a high level of comfort with driving pleasure
and efficiency. The seven forward gears allow a wide ratio
spread with low engine speed increments between the
individual gears. This leads to fast-responding, fuel-efficient
gear changes with pleasantly smooth transitions. As
7G-TRONIC PLUS is able to skip individual gears, multiple
downshifts are possible for fast and powerful sprints.
The shift characteristics can be preset from economical
to dynamic with the transmission modes “Economy”,
“Sport” and “Manual”. In “Manual” mode, drivers with
sporty inclinations can switch gears manually using
the DIRECT SELECT steering wheel gearshift paddles – as
in motorsport.

Chassis & suspension.
The new S-Class is fitted with the latest-generation, enhanced AIRMATIC suspension system as standard. The innovative MAGIC BODY CONTROL – a technological milestone,
premiered in the new S-Class – is available as an alternative.
AIRMATIC (standard). In combination with variable damper
control, the air suspension system ensures ride comfort
and dynamic handling at a very high level. The damping at
each wheel is adapted to the current driving situation, and
can be set for more comfortable or sporty characteristics
as required.
AIRMATIC air suspension ensures comfort and agility through its ability to
raise and lower the suspension settings as required.
Crosswind Assist (standard). In strong, gusty crosswinds
there is a danger of the vehicle being blown off course.
Crosswind Assist is able to recognise this and help the driver
to keep the vehicle on course. Using the ESP® sensors,
course-correcting braking intervention is performed automatically. This braking intervention takes place at the
wheels on the side of the vehicle facing the crosswind. The
resulting yawing motion around the vertical axis counters
the effect of the crosswind. This reduces track offset considerably. In this way Crosswind Assist gives the driver a
greater feeling of safety and helps to avoid inappropriate
reactions, especially when sudden gusts strike the vehicle.
MAGIC BODY CONTROL (option). This dynamically oriented
suspension system adjusts for undulations or bumps in
the road before the car passes over them. This is made
possible by the combination of the active springing of the
suspension system with the ROAD SURFACE SCAN function.
With the aid of a stereo camera the condition of the road
surface ahead is captured in detail. From the data gleaned
the system calculates in a split second the correct strategy
for adjusting in advance the damping of each wheel so as
to deal in the best possible way with the unevenness ahead.

Integral safety concept.
We are driven by the vision of accident-free driving. Our integral safety concept takes us a step closer to achieving this. It is a comprehensive approach which paves
the way for new, synergy-based technological solutions, a case in point being the “Mercedes-Benz Intelligent Drive” system which combines comfort and safety.
As the inventor of the motor car we feel a special responsibility for road safety. That’s why we became the first car
manufacturer to develop an integral safety concept that
seamlessly combines active and passive safety measures
to provide comprehensive protection. The holistic approach
is divided up into four phases and offers safety solutions
for every situation. These include systems for safe driving,
which help prevent hazards by providing timely alerts and
assistance. Our unique PRE-SAFE® system is triggered in
response to danger and activates anticipatory measures
to protect the occupants. If a collision should occur despite
these precautionary measures, other technologies provide
the required protection. We have also considered the time
immediately after an accident by developing solutions that
can prevent serious injury and enable the emergency
services to provide rapid assistance. A selection of these
technologies for the “Safe driving”, “In the event of danger”,
“In an accident” and “After an accident” phases is presented
on the pages which follow.
Safe driving: Driving Assistance package Plus (option).
This packages comprises numerous safety and assistance
systems such as DISTRONIC PLUS with Steering Assist and
Stop&Go Pilot, the PRE-SAFE® Brake, Brake Assist BAS
PLUS with Cross-Traffic Assist, Active Blind Spot Assist,
Active Lane Keeping Assist and PRE-SAFE® PLUS. These
Mercedes-Benz Intelligent Drive technologies help to
relieve driver strain, reduce the risk of accident and improve
protection for both the occupants and other road users.
DISTRONIC PLUS with Steering Assist and Stop&Go Pilot
helps the driver to keep a safe distance from the vehicle
in front and also to remain in the centre of the lane. In this
way, the system provides a great deal of stress-relieving
comfort, especially on long journeys and when following
vehicles in a traffic jam. Brake Assist BAS PLUS with
Cross-Traffic Assist and PRE-SAFE® Brake can reduce the
risk of accident at junctions, rear-end collisions and
collisions with pedestrians, particularly in urban traffic.
DISTRONIC PLUS with Steering Assist and Stop&Go Pilot takes the strain off the driver in both moving and stop-and-go traffic.
Safety
Active Lane Keeping Assist and Active Blind Spot Assist
provide assistance if the vehicle leaves its lane unintentionally or during lane changes if there is a danger of collision
with other vehicles. One-sided braking intervention can
help return the vehicle to its lane and prevent an accident.
PRE-SAFE® PLUS extends the functions of the PRE-SAFE®
occupant protection system with preventive measures when
a rear-end collision threatens.
Safe driving: Night View Assist Plus (option). Only
20 percent of all traffic travels at night, yet 40 percent of
fatal accidents occur during this time. Night View Assist
Plus makes it possible for the driver to spot people or animals sooner in the dark. They are clearly shown up in
the multifunction display in the instrument cluster. Here the
combination of two infrared cameras that provide a very
high-resolution image and thermal image signature is unique
in the world. The Spotlight function enables endangered
pedestrians across the entire width of the road to be flashed
at four times, so that the driver registers them even more
quickly and the pedestrians themselves recognise the
danger. As standard the night view image only appears
automatically when a hazardous situation is recognised.
Active Blind Spot Assist monitors the difficult-to-see areas to the left and

50
In the event of danger: PRE-SAFE® anticipatory occupant
protection system (standard). This preventive occupant
protection system is able to detect critical driving situations
in advance and activate safety systems as a precaution.
To do this, the PRE-SAFE® system permanently evaluates
the data from systems such as ESP® and BAS, allowing
it to analyse severe understeer, oversteer and emergency
braking, for example. If a critical situation is detected, the
front seat belts can be tensioned reversibly and the side
windows can be closed so that, should there be an impact,
the full extent of the available protection is provided.
The PRE-SAFE® anticipatory occupant protection system can mitigate
the consequences of accidents.
In the event of danger: PRE-SAFE® PLUS (component of
the optional Driving Assistance package Plus). If a rear-end
collision threatens when at standstill, this extension of the
PRE-SAFE® system is able to initiate additional preventive
occupant protection measures. These include warning the
following traffic by activating the rear hazard warning lights
at high frequency and locking the vehicle brakes when at
a standstill if the driver indicates that he wishes to remain
stationary.
In the event of danger: BAS PLUS with Cross-Traffic
Assist (component of the optional Driving Assistance
package Plus). The anticipatory Brake Assist system BAS
PLUS determines the braking pressure required to prevent
a collision or reduce the accident severity. It then makes
this pressure available, from light application of the brakes
by the driver to maximum braking power. BAS PLUS can also
intervene to assist the driver in situations involving crossing
traffic. Plus the system is able to detect pedestrians in the
area ahead of the vehicle and boost the braking power
when the driver presses the brake pedal.
In the event of danger: PRE-SAFE® Brake with pedestrian
detection (component of the optional Driving Assistance
package Plus). PRE-SAFE® Brake assists the driver in convoy
traffic (vehicles ahead or stationary obstacles) when a rearend collision threatens and the driver shows no responses
to counter the danger. The aim is to warn an inattentive
driver of an imminent rear-end collision. PRE-SAFE® Brake
obtains its situational information from onboard long-range
and short-range radar sensors. Plus it allows detection of
pedestrians when used in conjunction with a stereo
camera. This means that collisions with pedestrians can
be avoided up to a speed of 50 km/h.
Safety
In an accident: PRE-SAFE® impulse (standard). During a
frontal impact the driver and front passenger are subjected
to very high loads. In the early phase of a frontal impact,
PRE-SAFE® impulse tensions the seat belts of the front seats.
In the process the front seat occupants are accelerated
against the direction of the impact and drawn more deeply
into their seats. When the peak loads occur, this retraction
is relaxed as a controlled process. Pre-acceleration and force
limitation enable the occupants to be temporarily isolated
from the crash. This allows PRE-SAFE® impulse to significantly reduce the risk of injury.
In an accident: Airbags (standard). The new S-Class has
eight airbags as standard in total. In addition to the impact
bags, there are sidebags and windowbags for the driver and
front passenger. There are also sidebags in the rear and
optional beltbags for the outer rear seats. The beltbag, a type
of inflatable belt strap, reduces the load exerted on the
chest during a crash. If there is an accident, the beltbag
strap inflates to almost three times its normal width. The
loads acting on the occupants are distributed over a wider
area, correspondingly reducing the loads on the chest area.
After an accident: Mercedes-Benz emergency call
system. This system is able to send an automatic emergency
call using a working mobile phone connected to the vehicle
as soon as the restraint system recognises an accident.
At the same time it communicates GPS positional data
and other information to the Mercedes-Benz emergency
call centre. Then a voice connection is established, which
can be in the relevant national language in practically all
countries. This makes it easier to initiate rescue, recovery
or towing to a Mercedes-Benz service outlet within a short
time.
Measures after an accident. In order to mitigate consequential damage and, where necessary, expedite the rescue
of the occupants, Mercedes-Benz has developed further
measures. These include the automatic engine cut-off, for
example, or activation of the hazard warning lamps and
interior emergency illumination. The central locking opens
automatically, and crash joints between the door and the
wing make it easier to open the doors after a frontal impact.
Mercedes-Benz also provides multilingual rescue guidelines
which emergency services can download online worldwide at www.mercedes-benz.de/rettungsleitfaden. As you
can see, Mercedes-Benz offers well thought-out safety
whatever the situation.

Assistance systems.
The new S-Class does not just influence its surroundings – it records them, with short and long-range radar, stereo and infrared cameras and ultrasound sensors working
together to give all-round vision, thereby making driving safer and more relaxing.
Stereo camera (option). This can capture objects and
pedestrians passing in front of the car and calculate the
path they will take. Intelligent algorithms evaluate the data
and, for a large area of vision, can recognise and allocate
in terms of space vehicles, pedestrians and different types
of traffic signs and road markings that are oncoming,
moving ahead or crossing the path of the car.
360° camera (option). This system allows you to park
and manoeuvre, giving you an all-round near real-time
view using four networked cameras. The vehicle and its
surroundings can be displayed in a bird’s-eye view on
the COMAND Online display; and obstacles below the level
of the windows are also displayed to the driver.
A stereo camera, short and long-range radars and all-round sensor systems form the basis for numerous safety and assistance systems in the new S-Class.

Parking package (option). Active Parking Assist with
PARKTRONIC and a reversing camera makes finding a
parallel or car-park parking space and parking in it easier.
If so desired, it will automatically guide the vehicle into
parking spaces and spares the driver the steering and
braking actions. If the driver selects reverse gear, and
accepts the space suggested, Active Parking Assist automatically performs the required steering movements
to manoeuvre the car into the space at a speed of up to
10 km/h. All the driver has to do is operate the accelerator and brake pedals. The parking manoeuvre is completed in a maximum of seven moves.
Traffic Sign Assist1 (component of COMAND Online).
This assistance system can recognise speed limit and
no-overtaking signs as well as the signs indicating the restriction is lifted and show these in the instrument cluster and
the map view of the COMAND display to inform the driver.
If the vehicle turns into a street displaying a no-entry sign,
a visual and audible warning message is displayed/issued
in the instrument cluster (wrong-way warning).
LED Intelligent Light System (option). For the best possible
visibility on country roads and motorways, when cornering,
on bends and in foggy conditions, the low beam mode of the
LED Intelligent Light System automatically adapts to the
weather, lighting and driving conditions. Adaptive Highbeam
Assist Plus allows continuous long-range illumination of the
road ahead without dazzling oncoming traffic or vehicles
ahead. Plus the high beam is dimmed automatically for road
signs that reflect its light back strongly. The LED Intelligent
Light System thus makes a key contribution to safe driving.

S 63 AMG technology.
AMG means having a drive system that will surpass itself time and again. Take the new S 63 AMG, for instance: lower emissions, lower fuel consumption, increased performance
with 430 kW (585 hp) and 900 Nm torque. And on top of all this: the AMG drive system is available for the first time in conjunction with 4MATIC all-wheel drive.
The systematic use of lightweight materials has resulted
in the S 63 AMG being 100 kilograms lighter than its
predecessor. This was achieved through using carbon-fibre
and innovative materials, a lithium-ion battery and
weight-optimised AMG forged wheels resulting in lowered
consumption, lower emissions and even more dynamic
driving characteristics. As a technical highlight, the
performance-oriented AMG 4MATIC all-wheel drive system
is available exclusively for the S-Class long-wheelbase
version for the first time. Front to rear axle power distribution
of 1/3 to 2/3 provides the high level of driving dynamics
and the huge amount of driving pleasure so typical of an AMG
model. It also improves handling on wet road surfaces,
and effortlessly transfers the enormous AMG power to
the road in dry conditions. The AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT
7-speed sports transmission with a wet clutch helps to boost
performance and is designed to be driven sportily –
without any compromises on comfort.
Systematic use of lightweight materials and intelligent detailed solutions have made the new S 63 AMG even sportier yet more economical than its predecessor.

elements, such as the inserts in the front and rear aprons,
side skirts and exterior mirror housings. The AMG twin-spoke
forged wheels in high-sheen titanium grey are equally
expressive; alternatively, they are available in a 10-spoke
design with a polished titanium grey finish or a matt black
finish, in all cases with 255/40 R 20 front tyres and

S-Class
The paint system developed by Mercedes-Benz includes
one of the best clear coats on the automotive market and
is a key factor behind the car’s excellent value retention.
Its secret is the exceptionally thick molecular structure,
which makes the metallic or non-metallic clear coat more
resistant and produces a longer lasting and visibly more
intensive shine.

Roll up those sleeves and get stuck into the job to be done – while
sitting in the lap of luxury. Roll up the garage doors in the
morning ready to work hard – step out onto the red carpet at
night ready to play hard. View the rising sun from the driver’s

The new S-Class brings together the worlds of work and leisure
at a hitherto undreamed-of level. The choice of materials, the
degree of perfection and exclusivity in the interior surpass
expectations for a vehicle of this class. And it is simply in the
new S-Class’s DNA to shine with technical innovations hitherto
unseen in a car. The ultra-intelligent chassis seems to flatten
down the road ahead; the lighting, using new technologies
and a 360° sensor system, illuminates the surroundings with
a speed and precision never seen before. You will see it, sense
it and experience it for yourself: the new S-Class shows the way
ahead – to the future of autonomous driving.

Technical data.
Diesel engine
Roll up those sleeves and get stuck into the job to be done – while
sitting in the lap of luxury. Roll up the garage doors in the
morning ready to work hard – step out onto the red carpet at
night ready to play hard. View the rising sun from the driver’s
seat – and the setting sun from the reclining seat in the rear.
The new S-Class brings together the worlds of work and leisure
at a hitherto undreamed-of level. The choice of materials, the
degree of perfection and exclusivity in the interior surpass
expectations for a vehicle of this class. And it is simply in the
new S-Class’s DNA to shine with technical innovations hitherto
unseen in a car. The ultra-intelligent chassis seems to flatten
down the road ahead; the lighting, using new technologies
and a 360° sensor system, illuminates the surroundings with
a speed and precision never seen before. You will see it, sense
it and experience it for yourself: the new S-Class shows the way
ahead – to the future of autonomous driving.
