Mercedes-Benz Guard celebrates its anniversary
When we developed the first Mercedes with special protection in 1928, we invented a principle that is still in practice today: integral ex factory protection.
Between the first model and today there have been 80 years of production and development expertise in continual growth. A tradition without which the S-Guard, E-Guard and G-Guard could not have been possible.
Eight decades of research and development in close cooperation with internationally recognised authorities in order to always provide the highest protection possible in the face of ever-increasing threats to safety. Making special protection vehicles which are ahead of the rest has enjoyed a long tradition with the Mercedes-Benz Guard.
S 600 Pullman Guard – the new state occasions car with the highest protection
Its elegance is surpassed only by its safety: the new representative vehicle for state occasions S 600 Pullman Guard with integrated highest protection is based on the long version of the S 600 but with a significantly lengthened wheelbase and a higher roof. The generous pullman format offers high-ranking passengers a comfortable amount of space, including a fully equipped mobile office. You can experience the S 600 Pullman Guard for yourself – at the market launch in October 2008 in Paris.
S 420 CDI Guard – the luxury class with special protection and diesel drive
Mercedes-Benz is the first manufacturer in the world to combine the cultivated power of a diesel engine in the luxury segment with the incomparable safety of a special protection vehicle – which can be experienced in the S 420 CDI Guard.
The state-of-the-art V8 CDI engine gives the S 420 CDI Guard excellent performance with low consumption figures and an outstanding range for a special protection vehicle – despite the significant weight increase compared to the base model.
With the new Guard Saloon for the S-Class, Mercedes-Benz is consistently continuing its uninterrupted tradition for over 80 years of developing special protection vehicles with the most cutting-edge innovations.
