The All-New 2017 E-Class is more than a stroke of genius, it’s a masterpiece of intelligence.
Industry Leading Innovation
This isn’t just the most advanced E-Class yet. With technologies no car has ever offered, the 2017 E-Class writes a new chapter in the story of driving: Where cars can talk to each other, and look out for you, like no other car on the road.
PRESAFE® Sound Protection
It’s the first car that can cover your ears before a bang-up. Mercedes-Benz engineers are human engineers first. When PRESAFE® Sound senses an impending collision, it emits safe “pink noise” via the audio system to pre-trigger your ears’ natural defense against the loud noises of an accident.
Car-to-X Technology
You can’t see around corners. But your E-Class can. World-first “Car-to-X” technology connects your E-Class to a central information resource, to send you in-car updates about driving conditions before you get to them. Your car can also report hazards, to help other E-Class drivers.
PRESAFE® Impulse Side Protection
In a side impact, it’s good to have innovation on your side. PRESAFE® Impulse Side is an industry first that can help prepare you for an impending side impact. By rapidly inflating the front-seat bolster, it can move you further from an intrusion and help reduce the forces of impact.
DRIVE PILOT
Sometimes the future is just one lane away. DRIVE PILOT takes intelligent cruise control in a new direction: sideways. It can stop and go with the flow, and help you stay between the lines, even in curves. And now you can change lanes with just a touch of the turn-signal lever.
INTERIOR DESIGN
Athletically elegant outside, it’s in the E-Class cabin where your senses come alive. Vivid screens and flowing shapes entice the eyes. And from multitouch controls to aromatherapy and a hot stone massage, wherever you touch, it caresses you back.
TOUCH PAD CONTROLS AT YOUR THUMBS
Keep the world under your thumb. And your car under your other thumb. Two smartphone-like pads control nearly all the car’s features without taking a hand from the wheel. Swipe and select from the central screen with your right thumb. Change settings on the screen between the gauges with your left.
