Mercedes-Benz: Pre-Safe as standard in CL models

German automaker Mercedes-Benz will equip all CL models with their Pre-Safe anticipatory safety system.

Pre-Safe makes use of real-time sensor data to almost instantaneously spot the danger of skidding or heavy braking and then make tiny adjustments that increase crash protection for the driver and passengers.

Using its crystal-ball style foresight, Pre-Safe moves seats to the position for optimal seat belt and airbag deployment, and closes front side windows and sunroof to both guard against occupants being thrown from the car and to strengthen the overall structure of the vehicle.

The optional Pre-Safe braking system applies adequate brake pressure to guard against a collision and is triggered when radar sensors detect a fast approaching object.
