The Night Vehicle
It is the world's oldest automobile manufacturer and primarily
competes with the BMW, the Cadillac, the Jaguar, the Audi, the
Volvo, the Lexus, the Acura, the Infiniti, and the Lincoln. The
Mercedes Benz is a German brand of automobiles, buses, coaches,
and trucks which is under the umbrella of the DaimlerChrysler
company. This automobile manufacturer started out its humble
beginnings back to the 1880s. It happened around when Gottlieb
Daimler and Karl Benz invented the internal combustion
engine-powered automobile.
There are many sorts of trivia and facts that revolve around
this automobile company. One of these is that the company claims
that all of the wood used in its modern automobiles is raised on
tree farms although this has not yet been confirmed. Also,
Michael McClure's song had its title using the company's name.
This song was supposed to be a gentle satire on materialism
however the company used this to promote and advertise their
vehicles. The Mercedes Benz was the most popular brand name that
was mentioned in the Billboard Top 20 songs in 2003.
One of the vehicles running under the Mercedes Benz name and
brand is the 2007 S-Class. This vehicle is the ninth generation
Mercedes Benz S-Class and it has gone through more than just a
simple luxury upgrade. This vehicle sports a Brake Assist Plus
system that uses long-range and short-range radar that
facilitates and helps out in anticipating and avoiding the much
dreaded collisions, or at the very least lessen the severity of
a crash. This feature does this by automatically braking with
full force even if the driver does not stomp on the brake hard
enough to stomp in time. This vehicle is also claimed to be able
to see and look around at night. This is due to the Night View
Assist feature that has the ability to shine infrared beams down
the road so as to illuminate hazards that are beyond the reach
of the Mercedes Benz S-Class' headlights. There is a special
camera mounted on the rearview mirrors that can read the
infrared. This transforms the data to a simple language that
shows the driver a crisp and clear image of what is right ahead.
This data is shown on an eight-inch LCD screen that is installed
in the instrument panel of the vehicle. The S-Class also runs
and is powered by a 5.5 liter V8 engine that has the capacity to
produce 382 horsepower and 391 pound feet of torque. This power
is adequate enough to be able to make the sedan fly to 62 mph in
just 5.4 seconds.
The standard safety equipment for this vehicle are dual front
two-stage airbags, front and rear side airbags, full-length side
curtain airbags, NECK-PRO active head restraints,
second-generation PRE-SAFE, an adaptive brake light, anti-lock
brakes, a Brake Assist system, a hill-start assist system and
ESP stability control.
The parts and details that make up every inch of the 2007
Mercedes Benz S-Class makes this vehicle special and unique.
