Mercedes ESF 2009 S400 Hybrid Concept - Daimler Statement

so to wrap this up the only awesome idea i found in this cars safety is the under airbag skid plate.

ok some great ideas here but far from practical. The side door inflation isn't necessary. That is why you put two reinforced tubes inside the door structure. How about car collision compatibility? Acura has already done this with their ACE system. Another feature found inside the prius is a radar like detector. If it detects a car to close it immediately calibrates the breaks so they are more tense when breaking. ESA is also a key feature as well.

i think that its Volvo XC60 that has sensors which record anything thats happening around the vehicle. also when going 15km/h or less in trafic and if you get ocupied with something else while car in front of you stopps, the car enters a full breaking mode and stopps imidietly. honda also has night vision.

Do you think a PRIUS has safety technology a Mercedes-Benz vehicle doesn't? It's called Distronic Plus with Pre-Safe Brake, and it's available on a large majority of M-B models in NA.

yes but do you know how much more expensive the car is? A larger portion of people are going to be buying economy cars such as the prius (don't quote me on this if is said it wrong about it being an economy car). MB is mostly for the rich people. I don't like em.

cool

who wants to buy me 1

This is the future, between it being a Hybrid and how advanced it is.

I love S-Classes, they will always be on top.

they will if everyone gets this car! but yeah, german cars rule.
