Thanks to the integrated special protection of Mercedes-Benz Guard the S-Class is ideally prepared to handle extreme situations. To achieve this, all safety components, such as the electronic control systems, brakes and suspension, have been optimally coordinated with the requirements generated by the additional weight of the S-Guard. And it goes without saying that every Mercedes-Benz S-Guard model offers the luxury you are accustomed to from the S-Class.
There are three luxury saloons available equipped with special protection ex factory: the S 600 Guard, the S 450 CDI Guard with a high-torque diesel drive system and the S 600 Pullman Guard – all these naturally in the new look of the S-Class (available from 3rd quarter 2009).
The S-Guard passenger cell has been radically redesigned and strengthened using highly effective protective components – particularly at those points subsequently no longer accessible. From the vehicle interior right to the outer skin of the body, a host of safety components have been networked to form a unique, superbly effective protection system. Inconspicuous from the outside, this ingenious safety structure is integrated ex factory and includes steel, aramid and special-purpose glass.
The S 600 Pullman Guard with extended wheelbase is a saloon designed for government use and accordingly meets the highest standards of safety. The extra-high roof and integrated office provides the perfect blend of superb protection and refined comfort.
