What is "Hey-Mercedes"?

Mercedes-EQ have been busy bees in their C02-neutral factories; the Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV will be ready for release in the second half of 2022! This third addition to the electric line-up brings something new to the table as it is the first all-electric SUV from Mercedes-EQ. This very special electric SUV embraces the EQS sedan’s best traits and installs them into a spacious SUV package that sits up to 7 people. The Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV will impress tech fans, music snobs, and the already established loyal fanbase. The EQS SUV embodies the pioneering spirit of Mercedes-Benz, every customer, new and old, will find their new favorite feature. The Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV is innovative and futuristic from the exterior to the interior. The goal for the electric line-up is holistic digitalisation, connection and digital luxury. Mercedes-EQ has been working extremely hard to strive towards this goal. The design of the EQS SUV has a closed, wind-tight design, a wind-proof spoke design and closed radiator cover, and a bodystyle that guides air around the vehicle as smoothly as possible. In addition to the wind-tight design, Mercedes-EQ has taken steps to reduce drag and maximize performance. The Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV has increased speed and reduced drag by redesigning the tires and wheels, spoilers, running boards, and optimized the tread patterns. Drag was also reduced on the EQS SUV through aero-cladding. On the interior, luxury is everywhere. Aluminum Mercedes-Benz stars are fused into the high-quality ashwood, the Burmester Sound System is melded with Dolby Atmos, which can utilize the entire cabin space to create a 360-degree audio experience. The most obvious interior element is the MBUX hyperscreen, a 3-in-1 touchscreen that spans the entirety of the vehicle’s dashboard. If the hyperscreen doesn’t scratch your technology itch, there is also an option to add on two 11.6” displays in the rear of the vehicle for passengers. Although the interior is packed with innovative features, none are intrusive or distracting. Luxury can be found anywhere in the interior, but distractions can’t be! Mercedes-EQ is happy to boast about the EQS SUV’s super quiet performance. The “off-road mode” is a unique mode where all passengers have a clear view of the beaten path, with the availability to see slope angles and inclination at real time. “We will build the world’s most desirable electric cars”, explains Ola Källenius, Chairman of the Board of Management; Mercedes-EQ is taking giant leaps towards manifesting that mission. With the anticipation of the EQS SUV release, Mercedes-EQ have also announced the release of the EQB SUV, and the concept EQG, an electric G-Class wagon. With each addition being announced, Mercedes-EQ is in the fast lane to accomplish their mission of creating the world’s most desirable electric cars.

For many drivers, a damaged windshield is often overlooked or not considered a priority. However, driving with a chipped or cracked windshield increases your chances of getting into an accident or getting pulled over and fined. If not addressed quickly, a small chip or crack can turn into irreparable damage that calls for a more expensive windshield replacement on Long Island. This article highlights the benefits of scheduling a windshield repair service and how it impacts your safety. Protects the integrity of your vehicle Your car’s windshield is one of the most important structural features that keep you and your passengers safe. An undamaged windshield maintains the structural integrity of your vehicle and helps airbags deploy properly in the event of a crash or roll-over. A damaged windshield increases the risk of the glass shattering during an accident, a situation that can potentially cause more harm to you and your passengers. Scheduling a windshield repair protects the integrity of your vehicle and ensures your safety on the road. OEM Auto Glass OEM stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer. OEM auto glass is fabricated by the same manufacturer that provided the original glass the automaker placed in your vehicle. In essence, you should be getting an almost identical windshield to the factory auto glass your Mercedes-Benz  came with when it rolled off the assembly line. OEM glass also has special  Mercedes-Benz branding on it. Quality standards set forth by Mercede-Benz are met. Mercedes-Benz USA has also announced that it strongly recommends using OEM glass for windshield replacements. The automaker’s position statement says, “Aftermarket glass often does not account for complex electrical components and may interfere with your vehicle’s electronic systems, or cause these electronic systems to not function properly.” The statement also provides guidance for recalibration of on-board systems and ADAS. ADAS Systems ADAS stands for Advanced Driver Assistance Systems  and are designed to increase the drivers safety. They include technology such as collision avoidance, surround view, lane-departure warning, cross traffic alert, park assist, and heads-up displays. ADAS was seen as an upgrade for higher-end vehicles but is now becoming more standard in most makes and models. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is requiring ADAS to be standard in newly manufactured vehicles. Where to go for help?
