It prevents the splash and uses three partly autonomous wash programs at the same time. It is the first system in the world to do so.

Advanced Access System

The Advanced Access System is a keyless entry system for your Mercedes-Benz vehicle. With this system, you are always ready to go and your Mercedes is as well. As part of this system is Keyless Go which will allow your vehicle to recognize your key in your pocket or purse and unlock your car for you when you grab the door handle. As long as you have the key with you, you will never be locked out. You can even start your engine with the touch of a button when you have the key. When you want to lock your car, all you have to do is touch the sensor on the door handle. Additionally, you can gain hands-free access to the trunk with the wave of your foot. To close it, you can touch a button or wave your foot again.

Collision Prevention Assist

Lighting Technologies

There are several different lighting technologies available on Mercedes-Benz vehicles to help keep you safe on the road. Adaptive High-Beam Assist will help you see more on the darkest of roads by shining the most light on the road without adding glare for other drivers.
