A feel-good interior: The new S-Class combines comfort, ergonomics and aesthetics
In the last of three 'Meet the S-Class DIGITAL' episodes, and before Mercedes-Benz presents the new S-Class to the world on September 2, the manufacturer will, for the first time, show details of its holistic interior concept which significantly contributes to luxury, comfort and the well-being of the passengers. The luxury sedan combines a revolutionary new design language with digital technologies, ease of use and optimal ergonomics. The passengers' experience was one of the major focuses during the development. The holistic approach ranges from the implementation of numerous practical detail solutions –from Comfort Headrests – to ENERGIZING functions that support the mental and physical fitness of the drivers and their companions. The AIR BALANCE package with its three functions – fragrance, ionization and filtering – also contributes to increasing the well-being of the passengers, regardless of the outside air quality.
