Excellent video! Thanks for sharing Jason...

I think many of the safety and performance related features that we can think of were actually Mercedes Benz inventions, highlighting again that "Innovation" is in the DNA of our beloved brand.

Read from one Mercedes magazine that when the airbags were first installed on the S-class, no one knows how long will it last or will it ever work after many years. Then one day, an accident on a 10 year old Mercedes-Benz activated the airbags, thus proving that it still works after 10 years.
