Fun Facts About Indianapolis, IN | Coast To Coast Imports

Since its inception, the Mercedes-Benz brand has been an innovative leader in the automotive industry. In fact, one of its founders, Karl Benz is recognized as the inventor of the first automobile with a three-wheeled “Motorwagen” in 1886.
 


History of Innovation

Over the next hundred years, Mercedes-Benz introduced a number of innovations that would change the industry and the world. These included things like a honeycomb radiator, an electric-powered car in 1906, the first multivalve engine, a supercharged engine in 1921, four-wheel independent suspension, adding crumple zones to cars, and anti-lock brakes in 1978.
 


Modern Features

If you are shopping for a Mercedes-Benz today, whether used or new, you can feel confident that it will come with the latest engineering, safety, and connected technology.

  • mbrace®. Mercedes-Benz first introduced this system in 2000. At the time, it was known as Tele Aid. Today, mbrace® and mbrace2™ bring internet connectivity inside the car. It also allows drivers to connect to their vehicles through their smartphones and use remote features.
  • PRE-SAFE®. The first PRE-SAFE® safety features were introduced in 2002. Today, these features work together to help prevent accidents and provide additional protection when they do happen.
  • DISTRONIC PLUS with PRE-SAFE® Brake. Added to the first Mercedes-Benz in 2006, this feature looks ahead in traffic to detect stopped vehicles, warns the driver, and even starts braking to reduce the stopping time.
  • ATTENTION ASSIST®. In 2010, drowsy drivers got some assistance with this added feature. It measures over 70 parameters to determine when a driver is feeling drowsy. It will then alert the driver to take a break.
  • Car-to-X Communication. First introduced in the 2017 E-Class, this technology can communicate with other similarly-equipped vehicles. It shares important information such as road conditions, accidents, and inclement weather. When this technology is widespread, driving will be smarter and safer than ever.
