A feel-good interior: The new S-Class combines comfort, ergonomics and aesthetics

The third and final episode of the “Meet the S-Class DIGITAL” special provides insights into the holistic interior concept of the new Mercedes-Benz S-Class before its world premiere in September. Optimal ergonomics, high-tech materials and top-quality workmanship merge with an aesthetic design that has been thought through down to the smallest detail. In the new S-Class, this “Sensual Purity” meets noise and vibration insulation that sets new standards. Resulting from the sum of many measures and features, journeys in the S-Class become a luxury and feel-good experience for its passengers. Hartmut Sinkwitz, Head of Interior Design, Belinda Günther, Senior Manager Color & Trim, and Dirk Fetzer, Head of Product Management S-Class & Maybach, will give host Yasmine Blair insights into numerous coordinated details – from the colouring of the high-quality leather and the seat adjusters to noise and vibration insulation that minimise the feeling of road irregularities in the interior.

The luxury saloon combines a revolutionary new design language with digital technologies, optimal ease of use and ergonomics. The passengers’ sensation and experience were in focus during the development. The holistic approach ranges from the implementation of numerous practical detail solutions – such as illuminated belt buckles or “cuddle cushions” in the headrests – to ENERGIZING functions that support the mental and physical fitness of the drivers and their companions. The AIR BALANCE package with its three functions – fragrancing, ionisation and filtering – also contributes to increasing the well-being of the passengers, regardless of the outside air quality.
