Facts about Mercedes-Benz 2021, Features and Model
The 2021 Mercedes-Benz model range features the best luxury vehicles all over the world, including the newest all-new models from Mercedes-Benz like the GLA crossover and the renowned E-Class as well as enhanced versions of the rest of the portfolio. Mercedes-Benz has always been a pioneer in terms of technology for convenience, comfort, and safety. Additionally, more and more Mercedes-Benz automobiles are equipped with new technologies yearly.
There will undoubtedly be enough information to give your family, friends, and neighbors when a car has been around for over fifty years. You’re in luck if you enjoy automobile trivia as much as we do. The new 2021 Mercedes-Benz S-Class is here with unique packages, and it is jam-packed with information. Here are three things you must be aware of.
- It’s slick.
The new S-Class is extremely aerodynamic despite its outward appearance, which is relatively conventional. How streamlined? It only has a drag coefficient of 0.22, after all. Compared to the Porsche Taycan Turbo S (0.25), the current-generation (and still malformed) Toyota Prius (0.24), and the Tesla Model 3 (0.23), the relatively large S-Class has a more aerodynamic design. Although the S-Class is not the most fuel-efficient car on our shortlist, its aerodynamic efficiency demonstrates how much Mercedes is ready to sacrifice in order to increase fuel efficiency. Additionally, you may impart this interesting tidbit to your Tesla-owning neighbor in order to induce a tic.
- It does a little car-like turnaround.
The S-Class of 2021 offers rear-axle steering but not forklift-style rear steer. For example, its rear wheels may rotate up to 10 degrees in any direction to improve low-speed agility or high-speed stability. Speed is the major factor that determines which direction and how much the rear wheels steer. The rear wheels will steer in the same direction as the front wheels at higher speeds (like during a high-speed lane change), but at lower speeds (like during a U-turn), they will turn in the opposite direction. This significantly reduces the vehicle’s wheelbase at low speeds, and Mercedes asserts that the rear-steering S-Class can turn a standard car with a turning radius of less than 6 feet. That’s quite incredible. The valet man will undoubtedly appreciate it if the driver doesn’t.
- If you’ve had one, chances are you’ve had another.
Since returning customers are a surefire indicator that you’re doing something well, automotive manufacturers prefer to highlight owner loyalty data. This is particularly true given that your clients have access to almost every other premium automobile manufacturer under the sun. Mercedes asserts that 70% of its clients in North America and 80% of its customers in Western Europe will each buy another Benz. That’s impressive to techies. And if you’re anything like us, you’re wondering how it stacks up against pickup-truck loyalty.
