Merk Car World

What drives us to gather the most time-honored traditions of motoring and set them free? For 125 years, we’ve had two fundamental motivations: the passionate desire to travel in ways that only existed in the imagination and the ingenuity to make these dreams real. Ever since inventing the first car, the engineers of Mercedes-Benz have been reimagining not just what sets the world in motion, but what stimulates our emotion. “The best or nothing.” This was the mantra of Gottlieb Daimler, and it remains the driving force of Mercedes-Benz today.

It is why the most exacting engineering, exhaustive testing, painstaking craftsmanship and precise interweaving of every aspect of performance come together to form such an uninhibited result: the  2011 Mercedes-Benz CL‑-Class. Its freshly resculpted body achieves extraordinary rigidity without the visible encumbrance of a center roof pillar to engender a panoramic sense of freedom befitting a true coupe. Its new twin-turbo V‑-8 unleashes appreciable swells in power, torque and visceral response yet it consumes less fuel and leaves behind fewer emissions. Its innovative chassis systems harness the forces of nature with unbending confidence and unparalleled grace. And its advanced technology engages the driver and car in a seamless, intimate bond. Every detail of the 2011 Mercedes-Benz CL‑-Class has been thoughtfully deliberated, to make the fortunate few who will call it their own feel thoroughly liberated.

A new era of power. For decades, the coupes of Mercedes-Benz have reignited driving passion with dramatic breakthroughs in performance from fuel injection in the 1950s to the Electronic Stability Program (ESP) in the 1990s. For 2011, a new generation of leaner, meaner and cleaner engines debuts with the CL 550’s 429‑-hp 4.6‑-liter V‑-8. Its twin turbochargers spin up to 150,000  rpm to boost low-end torque by as much as 45%. New high-pressure Direct Injection microscopically fine-tunes the fuel spray, while rapid-multispark ignition fires up to 4,000 times per second squeezing more thrust, and fewer emissions, from every atom of gasoline. And as its AIRMATIC suspension turns compressed air into calm composure, and its 4matic all-wheel drive hugs the road, the CL 550 reminds you how refreshing change can be.

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 2011 CL‑-Class offers today could rewrite the story of your own life.

Body structure. Even without visible B-pillars, the 2011 Mercedes-Benz 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. Standard 11-way air bag protection. A system of nine air bags offers 11-way protection.

Every 2011 Mercedes-Benz CL‑-Class features dual-stage front air bags, a driver’s knee air bag, front and rear side-impact air bags, and side curtain air bags for all four seats. Every seat belt is equipped with an Emergency Tensioning Device (ETD) and belt-force limiter. 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. Night View Assist PLUS with Pedestrian Detection. When you’re driving in darkness, this innovative option projects invisible infrared beams and reads them with a special camera. The system displays a clearer, supplemental real-time view of the road ahead on an in-dash 8" screen positioned directly in front of the driver. It can even help to identify and point out pedestrians.

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. DISTRONIC PLUS with PRE-SAFE Brake. Another breakthrough first introduced by Mercedes-Benz, this active cruise control option adapts your set speed in response to traffic ahead. It automatically slows or even stops your car, and then resumes when your path is clear again. The system also includes PRE‑-SAFE Brake, whose radar-based sensors can detect an impending collision with the vehicle ahead. PRE‑-SAFE Brake automatically applies up to 100% of the car’s braking power to help reduce the severity of impact.

ATTENTION ASSIST. By continually monitoring numerous driving behaviors, this Mercedes-Benz innovation can audibly and visually alert the driver if it detects signs of drowsiness on long trips.
Active Lane Keeping Assist and Active Blind Spot Assist. These optional systems can warn the driver of unintended drifting across visible lane markings10 and at speeds above 20  mph alert the driver to some unseen vehicles in the adjacent lane. Should the driver disregard these alerts, new active technology for 2011 Mercedes-Benz CL‑Class allows either system to help guide the car back into its own lane by gently applying the brakes to specific wheels.

 Time-honored customs meet new-age convenience in the 2011 CL‑Class. Four individually contoured seats a Mercedes-Benz coupe hallmark are divided by a sweeping full console. Hand-fitted leather, hand-finished wood, brushed metal and polished chrome adorn virtually every surface of the seats, doors, dash and steering wheel. Elegantly designed controls fall naturally to your hands, and even the most advanced systems operate with an intuitive simplicity. The COMAND system puts audio, navigation, vehicle settings and information such as real-time traffic reports within easy reach, with a convenient central controller, Enhanced Voice Control and two high-resolution 8" widescreens. Making something startlingly new feel comfortably familiar is a Mercedes-Benz tradition.
