The new 220-series S-Class of 1998 impressed not only with its coupé-like styling but also with weight savings combined with further enhancements in safety and comfort. 2002 saw the introduction of the PRE-SAFE anticipatory occupant protection system, which prepares passengers for a possibly imminent collision by automatically initiating measures designed to ensure their optimum protection.
Concurrently with the introduction of the new safety system, the S-Class was optionally available with intelligent 4MATIC all-wheel drive, which helps to guarantee optimum traction at all times, including in adverse driving conditions.
