Look at the list of the safety features in most any SUV 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. In the 1970s, they earned a patent for the air bag. In
the decades to follow, they pioneered a portfolio of safety breakthroughs that went on to become industry standards — like the Antilock Braking System (ABS),
Electronic Stability Program (ESP
®
) and emergency-sensing Brake Assist. And with the introduction of the original M-Class, they were the first to bring side
curtain air bags and the 4-wheel Electronic Traction System (4-ETS) to the world of SUVs. So when you examine the 2013 M-Class, you’ll see more than a list
of now- familiar safety features. You’ll discover advancements that predict tomorrow’s SUVs, while helping to protect your own tomorrow — and your family’s —
starting now. New COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST is a standard innovation that uses radar technology to warn the driver of a potential impact, and precisely
adapted braking assist to help avoid it. PRE-SAFE
®
can help to prepare front-seat occupants and their restraint systems before a collision happens. ATTENTION
ASSIST can sense when a driver is drowsy. As you drive on a rainy highway, the brakes intelligently act to disperse water buildup. And should any of the nine
air bags be activated, the standard mbrace
®
system can automatically place a call for help.

Far more than a list of features, every M -Class is an orchestrated
safety system — engineered to make the most of the precious milliseconds it takes to avoid, or survive, a collision. Perhaps that’s why the Insurance Institute
for Highway Safety named the M-Class a 2012 Top Safety Pick.

“Safety first” is more than a motto to Mercedes-Benz engineers. It’s a long-held family value.
