Climate change is one of the major challenges of the 21st century. The rising consumption of natural resources is having an increasing impact on our planet. As the inventor of the automobile, Mercedes-Benz has a very special responsibility here to implement innovative technologies in order to develop solutions that help preserve the environment and ensure that raw materials are used as efficiently as possible – without compromising on comfort, safety and driving enjoyment. We call them TrueBlueSolutions.
Several measures to optimise consumption have been combined under the name BlueEFFICIENCY, which you can experience in the S-Class in the S 320 CDI BlueEFFICIENCY. We improved the LCA in this model by 10 percent – including through new electrohydraulic power steering, an optimised transmission with standstill decoupling and standard 17-inch light-alloy wheels with tyres with a low rolling resistance.
