Safety Features: 10+ Airbags & Pre-Safe Impulse Side
The S-Class pioneered the world's first rear-seat frontal airbags. For 2026, it includes "Pre-Safe Impulse Side," which uses the AIRMATIC suspension to raise the car body by up to 80mm in milliseconds if a side impact is detected, directing forces to the stronger lower sills.
Infotainment: MBUX Hyperscreen (Optional) / 12.8-inch OLED
The center console is anchored by a 12.8-inch OLED portrait display. Higher trims feature the "Hyperscreen," a 56-inch curved glass panel that spans the entire dashboard, integrating AI for zero-layer menu navigation.
Chassis: AIRMATIC Air Suspension
Standard AIRMATIC suspension uses continuously adjustable damping to maintain a level ride regardless of load. It automatically lowers the car at high speeds to improve aerodynamics and stability.
