Prepares for the future. To protect your legacy.
An unsurpassed heritage of looking out for what’s ahead. Look back over the life story of the automobile and you’ll find
Mercedes -Benz continually leading the way in safety innovation —from the invention of the first crumple zone 60 years ago to the
exclusive PRE-SAFE system of today that can detect and prepare for a collision before it happens. True to its heritage, the 2011
®
CL-Class is engineered with visionary safety advances that watch the road ahead and to your side, and that help you to see and
be seen. Maybe all cars will do this someday. The protection a CL-Class offers today could rewrite the story of your own life.
Body structure. Even without visible B-pillars, the CL-Class body
structure achieves exceptional rigidity. Extensive use of ultra-high
and high-strength steel in critical areas helps it manage both weight
and impact forces. Advanced crumple zones help dissipate impact
energy over, under and around the reinforced passenger cabin.
PRE-SAFE. During certain vehicle maneuvers, the exclusive
PRE-SAFE system can detect instability suggesting that a collision
or rollover is imminent. PRE-SAFE can then tighten the front seat
belts, adjust the front passenger seat, and close the windows and
sunroof—all in an effort to better prepare the occupants.

Brighter lighting. All-LED taillamps provide quicker illumination
of the brake lamps than conventional bulbs, potentially reducing the
reaction time of drivers behind you. Standard Bi-Xenon headlamps
feature Active Curve Illumination and Adaptive Highbeam Assist—an
innovation that continuously varies the headlamp range to maximize
illumination without creating glare for other drivers. Bright white LED
Daytime Running Lamps maximize visibility with minimal energy draw.

behaviors, this Mercedes-Benz innovation can audibly and visually
alert the driver if it detects signs of drowsiness on long trips.
