Thanks to this technology, Mercedes-Benz is not afraid of the wind

Crosswind Stabilization technology from Mercedes-Benz helps drivers of large size cars safely and comfortably before the winds impact the side of the car.

Many drivers in Vietnam have experienced the feeling of their car being pushed to the side in the storm No. 1, especially the owners of SUVs or van, minivan.

The above phenomenon not only annoys the driver and passenger in the car but also creates potential danger, especially for new drivers. However, the owners of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, GL-Class, Sprinter or even the C-Class will not have to worry about this phenomenon thanks to Crosswind Stabilization.

The Crosswind Stabilization system can detect when a vehicle is deviating from the strong wind in bad weather.

Crosswind Stabilization operates on the same sensors that serve the Electronic Stability Program (ESP). Thanks to these sensors, the Crosswind Stabilization system can recognize when the vehicle is deviating from the strong winds when bad weather or the swirling currents occur because of a large vehicle running side by side. .

The central computer automatically activates the brakes on the two side wheels that are impacted by the cross winds to produce a direct ejection effect, which immediately suppresses the thrust of the airflow. Can run straight, not deflected wind direction. Braking force will be calculated based on the force of the wind flow.

The system is fully automated and passenger vehicles can not feel the impact of wind-damping technology. However, if the driver steers fast enough, Crosswind Stabilization will automatically shut down. After that, the driver can still own the car.
