The Mercedes is a brand name we have been hearing from decades in Indian automobile industry. We were not able to see much Merc on road earlier. But now it became a common sight on roads. But what about S-class? Â Its one of the largest luxurious car of Benz. If u needs power and luxury in one hand than no need to think other than a S-class provided your pockets are big enough.
Design Attractions
Exterior Design
Its always been the icon of luxury when you see a Benz. The new S class upholds the tradition right down to the smallest details. The head lights have bi-xenon headlight standard. Another attraction of the new S-class is its radiator grille which looks like an up arrow and a front bumper which is attached with a chrome strip on below the cooling air intake. This gives it more beauty.And an array of LED is been used for different purposes in new S-class. The rear end is characterized by tail lights in the new designs with horizontal white lights rather the previous inserts in the vehicle color. Here too a total of 52 LEDs arranged in a curve design form an unmistakable light signature.
Interior Design
The interior of S-Class is been made like a feel like heaven feel. The upholstery used is superb. Soft feel can be redefined if u feel it. Each seat is precisely hand-crafted
There’s nothing quite like a long journey to truly appreciate the comfort of the S-Class. From premium-quality upholstery that invites you to remain seated to climatised front seats wherever you’re seated you’re sure to have a pleasant ride.
Another attrction is the seats offer massage and dynamic handling function. This includes seven massage chambers and four different modes produce a rolling movement, especially designed for the comfort of back muscle.
Ambient Light
A narrow band of light fed by LEDs extends along the wood trim strips of the four doors and instrument panel. The ambient lighting creates a distinctive atmosphere on board and makes the interior seem more spacious and comfortable. The ambient lighting can be left on while driving – it will not hamper the driver’s vision.Using the COMAND multimedia system, you can set the brightness of the ambient lighting to five different levels to suit your personal preference. You will even be welcomed by the ambient lighting: when you open the doors, the light band lights up to the brightest level; after the doors are closed it is then dimmed to your selected setting.
