New standards in active and passive safety
In addition, both of the top-of-the-line AMG models set new standards when
it comes to active and passive safety through an unrivalled combination of
innovative camera and radar-based driver assistance systems. These include the
ATTENTION ASSIST drowsiness detection system, Adaptive Highbeam Assist,
Lane Keeping Assist, and the PRE-SAFE
®
Brakes, which are linked to the
proximity regulating radar and intervene independently in the event of an
impending accident to act like an invisible crumple zone. Night View Assist with
infrared camera also features a novel pedestrian detection system. The pictures
from the windscreen camera are also used by the new Speed Limit Assist,
available as an option. The Brake Assist PLUS and DISTRONIC PLUS proximity
control support the driver in the event of emergency braking. The PRE-SAFE
®
positioning function and NECK-PRO luxury head restraints in the front are now
also included as standard.
New infotainment systems, including COMAND APS with new SPLITVIEW
display, which shows different images for driver and front passenger simultane-
ously, enhance occupant comfort even further.
Exclusive optional extras are also available from the AMG PERFORMANCE

20-inch AMG twin-spoke forged wheels, painted in titanium grey with a
mirror finish and fitted with 255/35 R 20 front and 275/30 R 20 rear tyres
