Mercedes will abandon SBC in favor of conventional brakes,but they will boast features such as wet-weather disc wiping and wheel-selective cornering brake control.
An all-new instrument cluster, along with S-Class night-vision technology and an updated Comand system will highlight the interior changes.
A more sculpted wide-frame grille, the more geometric nasal air intakes, and the wedge-shaped profile should give W212 a sportier stance.
Driver assistance in general is a major theme for the new model.
Expect lane-departure warnings, an eye-movement monitor, traffic-sign identification, road-condition sensors, and stability control that accounts for crosswinds, camber changes, and tire wear.
Optional ceramic-composite discs could be introduced top-down, starting with the AMG models.
The full-range of Mercedes engines will be available, in diesel and petrol variants. The basic powerplant will consist of four-cylinder engines with the horsepower rating starting at 175bhp, followed by 6 and 8 Cylinders and the performance-built AMG variant.
