ALWAYS AHEAD OF ITS TIME.
NEVER OUT OF ITS ELEMENT.
There was a time when the go- anywhere capability of an SUV really didn’t reach
a lot of places, until the M-Class dared to face the challenge. Like the turbulent
training ground of the wind tunnel. The physics- defying curves of a country road.
The rigors of the crash-test hall. Or the silent scrutiny of the restaurant valet.
By introducing the first 4 -wheel independent suspension, side-impact air bags,
certified low emissions, and electronic traction and stability control systems to
SUVs, the M-Class didn’t merely blaze countless new trails — it drew a new map.
For 2013, the original midsize luxury SUV stays ahead of the pack with industry-
exclusive safety systems, advanced ultralow -emission power, and an exquisitely
crafted cabin brimming with user-friendly innovations. More importantly, each of
its elements unite to form an alloy of unique strength: What is quite possibly the
most technologically advanced SUV on the road. Or wherever you might take it.
Passion for the road. With a rigid uni-body, agile
double-wishbone front/multilink rear suspension
and precise electromechanical power steering, an
M-Class delivers the quick reflexes and quiet ride
of a Mercedes -Benz. New, standard COLLISION
PREVENTION ASSIST adds to highway safety with
radar-based driver alerts and braking assistance.

Package adds height-adjustable air suspension.
