New “Intelligent Drive” Safety Systems
The future of safety technology gets a running start inside the ground-breaking 2017 E-Class. Active Brake Assist (CPA PLUS® for all but the sedan) alerts you if you’re rapidly approaching a straight-ahead vehicle, and aids you with emergency braking. If a collision is imminent, PRESAFE® helps secure the cabin and its occupants, while new PRESAFE® Sound (sedan only) emits a “pink noise” to stifle the sound of an impact by stimulating a natural reflex within the ear canal. Car-to-X-Communication (sedan only) makes it easier to avoid hazardous conditions altogether. This new technology allows you to exchange weather and crash notifications with other Johns Creek E-Class drivers, which are easily viewed via your driver information center.
