Mercedes-Benz Canada - Facts & Figures

The GL-Class adopts an integrated approach when handling safety; with advanced features ready to come to your assistance should danger occur.

Leading the way in safe driving is the Electronic Stability Program (ESP®), which is capable of recognizing and helping to correct understeer, oversteer, and abrupt steering movements and emergency braking[1] in order to stabilize the vehicle. Brake Assist (BAS) will engage when manual braking is not possible and instantly builds up maximum brake pressure to reduce the severity of an impact.

The GL-Class is also equipped with intelligent, two-stage driver and front passenger airbags[2], side airbags, and window curtain airbags.

Should an accident occur, the GL-Class continues to work on your behalf. The engine is shut down and the fuel supply is cut off automatically, while hazard warning lights and emergency interior lights are activated. The side windows are partially opened for fresh air and to allow emergency personnel better lines of communication with passengers. The vehicle also engages the TeleAid System[3], putting your vehicle in touch with the TeleAid Emergency Response Center.

These systems, combined with the stress-reducing ergonomic design of the GL-Class interior, help to minimize the risk of an accident and to protect those inside in all situations.
