Mercedes-Benz says it has focused on making the new S-class even more comfortable and luxurious than before. Here’s a look at the technology that went into the manufacture of the latest version of the plush four-door saloon.
 
CrossWind Assist
 
Mercedes says that Crosswind Assist is designed to help the driver by substantially reducing the effect of strong sidewinds on straight-line stability. If the S-class is not equipped with Active Body Control (ABC), crosswinds are counteracted using the Electronic Stability Control by applying the brakes on just one side of the vehicle. If the car has ABC, it works by adjusting individual dampers to keep the vehicle running as straight as possible.
