The newly updated S-Class Sedan comes with an array
of new features including Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC and Active Steering
Assist which now provides even more support for the driver to keep a safe
distance and steer. The speed is now adjusted automatically ahead of curves or
junctions. Further unique features of the S-Class in its segment include the
LED Intelligent Light System with Ultra-Wide Beam, Road Surface Scan (the
forward-looking detection of bumps) and curve-tilting function.
ENERGIZING Comfort optional feature links various
comfort systems in the vehicle together. It systematically uses the functions
of the climate control system (including fragrancing) and the seats (heater,
ventilation, massage), the console heating as well as lighting and musical
atmospheres, and enables a specific wellness set-up tailored to the mood and
need of the driver. This enhances the physical comfort and performance both
while driving and during breaks.
With 64 colors, the optionally extended ambient
lighting offers a wealth of individual settings. It adds lighting elements on
the trim elements, central display, stowage facility at the front of the center
console, handle recesses, door pockets, in the front and rear footwells and on
the overhead control panel when the vehicle is equipped with the Burmester®
High-End 3D Surround Sound System.
The AMG S 63 model can reach electronically limited
speeds of up to 186 mph (298 kph)just after acceleration from 0-60 mph in just 3.4 secs.
The Mercedes-Benz flagship model was the
best-selling luxury sedan in the world in 2016. Since 2013, the company has
sold well over 300,000 sedans.
