Crosswind Stabilization -- Mercedes-Benz Safety Features
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 22 มิ.ย. 2014
- By monitoring the AIRMATIC suspension, adaptive brakes, electromechanical power steering and Electronic Stability Program (ESP), the GL can automatically compensate for the effects of strong side winds. When detected, the system gently applies the brakes on one side of the vehicle to help smoothly maintain the driver's course in straight-line travel and gentle curves. The system operates above approximately 50 mph, and is automatically deactivated by significant driver steering actions.

I like it when this happens. A solution to a problem I never knew existed.
On the highway, I've felt strong winds try to change the direction of my car, and it's a little hatchback, but it wasn't really that bad and seems to happen very rarely. I imagine for a big Suv it might be worse.
with a motorbike it is veeery noticiable.
Ever driven on a highway? This is especially noticable on the autobahn (no speed limits) when you pass a truck moving twice as fast as it is, your car will swirl left and right due to crosswind and turbulence. This system pretty much completely manages the swirl. I think that it's a nice safety thing as i hate it when my car moves sometimes even more than a meter to the side when i pass a truck.
you should get morgan freeman to do your ads
too expensive
hahahaha good one!
Titty sprinkles...
give him a GLS as the reward
He'll say God brought the winds 😅
They put an infinity to compare it with now that’s savage
Momentous Tuber that was a Nissan...
Nissan makes infinity
Aaron Cole I know, but that model was made by Nissan, it’s a pathfinder I think
Or Infiniti QX60 ;)
SCALE RC ADVENTURES No, JX35. It had the JX35 taillights, however the QX60 is a face lifted version of JX35.
A truck overpassing a Mercedes
Bana 19 well, this kind of system is for that kind of driver...
it's a Mercedes truck
Tiago Neves not even close
did you understood it was irony, right? ...
On the left lane 😂
It Does Work... I drove my GL450 From Las Vegas to Los Angeles with gusty winds in the road... Didn't felt a thing in the steering wheel... I saw some other SUV'S and 18 wheels trucks parked due to the wind along the road
what ever is the technology, I would be a lifelong fan of Benz tristar logo and Benz vehicle designs😍😍😍😍
Great thinking to use current systems instead of adding on. I think drivers will need brake pads sooner or have uneven wear but this safety feature seems worth it.
DikoObraZ I'd say it would not significantly affect the mpg since the brakes are applied so lightly they don't even slow down the car (Just for steering)
If you can make a sudden changes to the steering wheel before the ESP works, that mean The Program had a delay right
We will hear what Scotty Kilmer has to say about this 😂
Stefan de Wild lol i saw his complaining videos
He will make a good point: something like "it will cost an arm and a leg if it breaks" and "Mercedes are not worth it". Bragadocious automobiles the mercs are.
@Herr Mai Word up
Rev up your engines !!
@@user-wv9mr2nh8h Old people are oftenly reluctanct to technological development if the system brakes or doesn't.. they'll never know.
I've seen a mercedes, and I'll subscribes!
II guess this system should become standard for all vehicle.........tapping the ESP program in a vehicle to counter forces of nature..............how very thoughtful!!!!
I wonder how well this works in the real world.
actually it does work in real world situations
beniaminsg Especially during that incident where a semi truck rolled on its side crushing a police car on the freeway in Wyoming.
very well! My dad has an E class (the latest one) I'm pretty sure it has crosswind stabelisation and he never had any trouble with wind!
Oops I meant stabilisation.
If a large truck is passing you, there is a prob with u
why not add a wind sensor on the sides to get more accurate assessment of the wind?
This feature only costs you $500 for the annual subscription! What a great value!
What?
9 years too late bruv 😆
Great tech
All this means that doing repairs on these cars yourself is impossible 😂
Lol, like GLS drivers would repair their own cars.
Of course they're going to be fixing it themselves. They can't afford to pay someone to fix it in the hood.
What are you talking about did you watch the video? It uses existing ABS and Traction Control systems to manage this. This doesn't make it any more or less reliable.
Carlos Espindola these types of advanced technical computer systems can malfunction and as a result you need special equipment that only the dealership has so that they can fix it. It's not less reliable it's just impossible to fix without specially made computer equipment that cost an arm and a leg to fix it with at the dealership.
Spongebob Squarepants so, basically the same just as if your ABS or Traction Control failed.
That ia awesome
My favourite car is MERCEDES BENZ F CLASS. THIS CAR 'S SAFETY IS ON TOP RANK.NO ONE CAN BEAT HIM
Good job
Did you ever think about crosswind aerodynamics of the car ? it should be aerodynamic at least to some point on the sides
I'm driving GL500 x164 since 2008 too 2013 from then GL500 x166 never knew that my car had this such thing for wind. Although I know it just drives where I tell it too. The car drives very confident my tires on both cars 295/40/21" AMG & body style AMG package debadged with GL63 diffuser & exhaust tips.
Yeah but why is this in my recommended now
What if at one moment it takes over the manual input and starts to act on it's own, when it is not actually necessary? Like a bug in it's program!
After crosswind is there no windshear?
That will Keep people safe.
In what year did this technology start?
I remember watching this in high school when it came out holy shit.
Of course the best
You should get Joe Namath to do the voiceover “I called Mercedes-Benz coverage helpline and they instantly advised me that I wasn’t getting the crosswind stabilization I DESERVED!”
Hi have a good day
what happens during cat 5 hurricane force winds
And selled it I miss that gl350
Is this standard or an extra?
I wonder if it works on ice road... A gust of side wind pushed me almost offroad last winter.
LordGryllwotth hmmm, I have a feeling this system wouldn’t work in that situation
0:12 It looks like the bay bridge backwards LOL.
Super
This will prevent you from being sucked up by a tornado
I think the real question is why is that truck in the passing lane? Trucks like that are usually restricted to the left 2 lanes on a 3 lane highway
Any technology to solve middle lane hoggers?
Even driving pleasure is artificial!
cool
I guess Mercedes took a hard look at themselves after driving their c207 chassis. The crosswind effects on that chassis would make a cardboard box feel like a piece of concrete.
I've never fully experienced negative effects of crosswinds on a vehicle until I got my E350 coupe. It's ABHORRENT to put it lightly, regardless of it basically being a brand new car underneath, including 4 brand new Conti Extreme Contact Pro dws 06's & a new rear subframe. Yes, new rear subframe due to them rotting from the inside out as they do on multiple Mercedes chassis from around 2009-2013 give or take.
The best, or.....something. Far cry from the industry leading machines they used to engineer.
0:30 - 0:35 Do you not including a plane?
ElangGentan Yeah! Even I thought he would mention air vehicles too!
Don't hog the middle lane if you are not passing someone on the left lane.
There are so many useless/unneeded features on cars now, what happened to LEARNING how to drive. I've driven in high speed crosswinds, all it usually requires is paying attention, and turning the wheel against the wind. I was following a poor motorcycle rider, he was leaned into the wind about 45*, but I survived without some electronic feature driving the car for me.
The Best or Nothing.
I drive a 2017 nissan sentra, and I wish my car had this. It's a nightmare to drive at highway speeds with even the slightest breeze, and god forbid the roads are a little slippery.
My father is also missing gl350
What if a strong wind blows while you are on a curve path? the demo only shows straight motion of the car, how about turning on a sharp curve while a strong gust of wind hits the car? :-)
It keeps you in the correct radius.
What if 🤔crossing beside this car with Ferrari spider on 300 kmh💨
and when those sensors get stuffed then your car'll start driving like there's a crosswind down your local parking lot.
Wow
It is my challenge to you
so i wonder can u still drift
You will stay on my hart only..
I Can not bay any kind of may favourite Mercedes-Benz. .
Sorry Mercedes-Benz. .
I respect you tomatsh..for ever......
Why to make cars more complicated?
youtube user because it makes driving more simple
Victor K and it also correlate straight to BORING diving experience. Try to drive olders cars like type r or cosworth rs they are REAL cars where you do the job NOT the car....
Why to make houses more complicated? Why not live in a cave?
Why to make phones more complicated? Why not carry a 2k g brick with you?
Why to make planes more complicated? Why not to fly in a unreliable, inefficient, loud plane?
Why to make navigation more complicated? Why not use a paper map?
morominaolenmina its called safety genius. My AMG, Porsche and GTR are all 700-800hp. far from boring kiddo. But nice try. Maybe your civic is boring? All 88hp. xD.
Am Duck So having no power steering or power brakes is fun? LOL Yeah ok. Electronics make cars faster and safer. Guess you like unsafe and slow.
who think about this??? imagen how exiting will be to have dinner date with the engeenears
Mitsu outlander?
damn this a long ass bridge
Isn't it horrible for the brakes ? With that they are going to wear down faster ?
Leø Would you rather be safe or crash into something?
Umm... I dont have this extra feature and could resist stronger winds.. So if I would have it, I'd have to pay 2-3k on brakes every 2 yrs
Leø where are you buying your breaks if they cost that much
It seems similar to brake based torque vectoring which many cars have to improve handling, it's going to add a little bit of wear just like whenever you slow down a little, but I don't think it would make a significant impact.
Windshear windshear windshear, don't sink don't sink
I've owned this car
Understandably these cars run by super computers, while they are prone for glitches anytime. What if an electric blip causes wheel to over compensate for no apparent reasons? How do you ensure your electronics are fail safe, as they never did in the past!
👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
German company does not know how many hours their workers are putting in? What is it? 1942?
Was lernen wir ?

Who can know that what is the disadvantages of MERCEDES BENZ ???????? That is the their full capacity fuel is only30 litres . In our car the capacity was 50 litres
ANSHUMAN Mishra I believe it’s 30 US gallons not litres, which makes closer to 110 litres.
sir car ka model number
I roll in a 99 s320. So crappy in cross wind, feels like noah's ark. But who cares, the seats just hug you man!😍
Bring back the Defender.
But can you drift...
I have Mazdaspeed 3. On highway I go to 156MPH people get out of control steer wheel because air push cars right next to me while I am speeding. They go to 70-80MPH. Oops. Until this? Impressive.
😊
This is just marketing, I have never been bothered about this.
IamJhon then you haven’t been in any considerable wind.
A GTR can avoid the trucks to overpass you. Forget about GTR even a Toyota Tercel but Mercedes
But still the inside looks like somthing from the 80's.
I have this stabilization since 1999 Xantia ACTIVA V6 HAHAHAHAHA
This Graohic good for Gta 6
Some dramatized animation to make you imagine how this works. Just like those acne ads.
Or instead of all that the driver follows the law for there safety and has both hands on the wheel........
Pie 4life This has nothing to do with piloted driving.
Have you ever driven a car in a situation with strong wind? I don't think so.
Pie 4life so there is a law on having 2 hands on the steering wheel? lol. Wow the ignorant comments from 14 year olds are hilarious. And what does that have to do with a wind gust?
lol ok kid you don't drive don't talk you are the real stupid ass here acting all big.
Pie 4life Yeah thats why I have 3 cars you dumb fuck. Shows how dumb you are that you need to say im a kid after I called you a 14 year old. lol. Whats the matter child, so dumb you cant think for yourself? LMFAO @ 2 hands on the wheel is the law. AAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...dumb ignorant 14 year old sheep boy.
What’s this gonna cost to fix once the shit breaks?
This does not add additional hardware to the car.
Jason Harris If you are worrying about stuff breaking then buy a 1971 pinto that has no electronics. Another hater than can only afford a bicycle.
vanhakaveri ohh yes it does...and worse off software
My car has an exhaust pipe.
This system has no use for my type os car. I simply cant afford MB
Those it come with a kid meals
Semis shouldn’t be allowed on the PASSING lane
Aha :))) sure. When ur G Class it`s like i don`t even know how to say it. It`s uncontrolable, it can turn right, left whenever it wants. It`s like the car drives you. And you are trying to make something like this? :))
As more as vehicles 🚗 has electronic and there is more chance that you the "consumer " will visit repair shop!!!!
Good Boy wow what a hater you are. Guess you like driving your 1971 ford pinto. No electronics at all but you will die if a motorcycle hits you. You idiot.
WINNING this cracked me up
....completely overkill
Please advertise WAY more then you currently do. I hate seeing ugly car commercials like Hyundai Honda or something else. It’s so annoying to see that same commercial OVER AND OVER AND OVER. PLEASE MAKE MORE COMMERCIALS!!!
Good for Rich People...
& when it breaks down ???
Second hand mercs are pointless.
Any driver who can't handle life on the road shouldn't be on the road.
Instead of developing new electric motors or alternative driving methods we get this. Sad.
Do you have any car that does not make me look like a Rich kidd
The FUCK
Just let me drive!
Я купил V-class в 2015 году за 100 тыс евро! Эта система должна работать, но она не работает!!! При сильном боковом ветре машину сносит с полосы! Система не срабатывает!
Pun intended.
I’ll keep my Lexus 😂
