Mercedes-Benz Vehicles, Concept Cars, and the Mercedes Lifestyle

The C-Class Benz Mercedes has just received one of the most coveted awards in the industry – the Top Safety Pick for the 2009 Insurance Institute for Highway Safety award. The IIHS studies three categories related to safety – head restraints, side and rear impact and frontal offset. The C-Class Benz Mercedes received a “good” in each category.

The IIHS studies these categories to help consumers make an educated choice when buying a new car. They analyze real-life accidents as well as performing their own crash tests.

In addition to receiving good marks from the IIHS, the Benz Mercedes C-Class also has more than the standard safety features that you expect to find on most vehicles today. One of the newest safety features that you can add on to your C-Class Mercedes vehicles is the PRE-SAFE option that is an anticipatory occupant protection system. As futuristic as it may sound, this feature anticipates the time before a potential accident and then initiates measures to help prevent or minimize the effects of a collision.
