Axor

Economical, comfortable, safe and attractive.

Of the many factors that determine how economical a truck is, payload is perhaps the most decisive. Especially when it comes to medium-distance haulage and heavyduty short radius distribution in the GVM category form 18 to 35 tons. The Axor was designed specifically for these tasks, so high payload is one of its fortes. It is already a very efficient truck with a durable, economical and powerful 6-cylinder engine plus a special powertrain configuration. With robust design and long service intervals, we have now also reduced the weight of the Axor wherever possible.

You are sure to find the right cab, as there are three on offer, including larger cabs for more space up front and smaller cabs for increased payload, depending on engine power and application in question. Drivers especially will be pleased about the mini revolution that has taken place in the interior: controls that are even easier to use and new bunks. After all, driver motivation is an important economic factor too.

CLS-Class Coupe

Fine-tuning for the design trendsetter.

Mercedes-Benz is making the CLS even more irresistible. This one-of-a-kind four-door coupé – the pioneer of a whole new automotive segment – has now been fine-tuned to give it added appeal.

Understated but masterly neatly sums up the result of the restyling programme for the CLS. At the front, it is the modified radiator grille that stands out, with two louvres now instead of the previous four. The diamond-shaped, three-dimensional grilles painted in atlas grey that cover the air intakes project an even greater air of self-assurance as well as adding further emphasis to the vehicle’s width. The exterior mirrors have also been given a new look. The LED side indicator lamps that are built into them are arranged in the form of an arrow to produce a most eye-catching effect, especially in the dark. The mirror surface has furthermore been enlarged by 32 per cent to afford a clearer view of the traffic behind and thereby boost active safety.

SLK-Class Roadster

More Powerful, more economical, more intense.

The Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class Roadsters have long captured the hearts of sports car enthusiasts. Following an extensive facelift incorporating around 650 newly developed components, the SLK models of 2008 are even more dynamic and now offer an even more emotionally charged driving experience.

Key visual enhancements include new-look front and rear sections, as well as a meticulously modified interior with a new instrument cluster and three-spoke sports steering wheel. The high-revving V6 sports engine in the SLK 350 developing 224 kW and the standard direct-steer system truly bring the bold, dynamic character of the two-seater to the fore. Furthermore, all of the engines in the line-up are now far more economical on fuel and therefore emit even less CO2, despite a substantial increase in output in some cases.

The new-generation SLK blazes a trail of new sporty highlights, bestowing yet greater appeal on this thriving two-seater with the trendsetting vario-roof that transforms the car from a roadster into a weatherproof coupé in a matter of seconds.

S-Class Sedan

Our cars have epitomised luxurious mobility since the beginning of the 20th century. And they have thrilled generations of motorists who have style and great expectations.

The direct genealogy of the S-Class began in 1951 when the 6-cylinder Mercedes-Benz 220 model appeared at the first International Motor Show in Frankfurt. Even this very first model boasted a high standard of equipment and delivered eff ortlessly superior performance. Launched in 1972, the W116 was the first S-Class, as it became known, and the official Mercedes-Benz representative in the luxury segment.

Outstanding comfort, innovative technology and comprehensive safety have been characteristic traits of the luxury saloon ever since. Crumple zones, ABS, airbags and ESP – they are all trailblazing innovations in the history of automotive development. And they all began life in the S-Class. Before finding their way into many other models and vehicle categories and, therefore, into people’s minds and the history books.

E-Class Cabriolet

The mere sight of it is captivating. The pioneering forms, the innovative technology and superb driving dynamics and aerodynamic characteristics leave their mark on the vehicle’s segment as well as on the drivers themselves. Take AIRSCARF and the new AIRCAP, for instance – they turn virtually every kind of weather into cabriolet weather: for up to four occupants who soon realise that anyone enjoying a ride in this particular vehicle literally won’t be left cold by the airstream – and they will certainly never be left cold by the E-Class Cabriolet in a figurative sense, either.

E-Class Sedan

An economic miracle right from the start

The roots of the E-Class can be traced back as far as the early 20th century, although the direct genealogy began in 1947 when the 170 V model became the first Mercedes-Benz passenger car to enter production in the post-war years. It was as inextricably linked to the economic miracle as its successor, the “three-box-body Mercedes”, and they set the lead for others to follow, both technologically and economically.

Other legendary models include the “Tail Fin” and the “Stroke/8″, the latter named after its launch year: 1968. Its timeless design still sends Mercedes enthusiasts into raptures to this day. Like the W 123 model series that followed it, it is etched into Germany’s collective memory in one colour above all, namely the light ivory shade made famous by the taxi models, Launched in 1984, in 1993 the W 124 model series was the first to be officially named the E-Class. And, two years later, the E-Class wrote design history with its innovative “twin headlamp face”.

Finally, the best aspects of the previous eight generations of the E-Class are combined in the ninth: the W 212 model series. Its rear wings are a reminiscence to the “three-box body”, while the headlamps bring to mind its immediate predecessor. The high levels of comfort and safety are the result of many decades of development work at Mercedes-benz. Yet the end result is utterly unique: the new E-Class.

CL-Class Coupe

Masterpiece among the luxury coupés

The South African launch of the new Mercedes-Benz CL coupé in early 2007 will be the culmination of a coupé tradition going back over 50 years. The two-door model combines exclusivity, charismatic design and unmatched cutting-edge technology.

The Luxury Coupé

The luxury coupé raises the bar in terms of vehicle safety with the PRE-SAFE® brakes: the unique system that automatically applies the brakes before an imminent rear-end collision. Furthermore, Mercedes-Benz innovations such as the Active Body Control (ABC) suspension system, the Intelligent Light System with five lighting functions and PRE-SAFE® anticipatory occupant protection all come as standard. Two powerful and smooth 8 cylinder engines will be available, delivering a notable increase in output and torque.

C-Class Estate

More Space.  More Freedom

The Estate adopts the Sedan’s customer-focused concept for the design and equipment lines. There is a choice of three models – CLASSIC, ELEGANCE and AVANTGARDE – which highlight the vehicle’s comfort or agility to differing degrees.

The AVANTGARDE line features a large Mercedes star positioned in the centre of the radiator grille that emphasises its sporty, agile nature.

In the ELEGANCE model, a three-dimensional, louvred radiator grille with a high-gloss paint finish accentuates other brand-typical attributes such as comfort and luxury.

The CLASSIC model, meanwhile, is deliberately more restrained and traditional.

C-Class Sedan

Agility and effortless superiority

Grey asphalt may not be one of life’s most inspiring sights, but for over 120 years now, our vehicles have shown that it can give drivers a lot of fun. Reason enough, we thought, to go a step further and offer a new interpretation of driving pleasure.

So here it is: The C-Class Sedan, a car that allows you to experience the road as never before. Few cars can compete with its ability to adjust so many facets of its character – from the interior to the drive technology – so quickly and precisely in response to external conditions and your own particular needs.
