The vehicle interior can be fragranced to preference with the AIR BALANCE package. There is a choice of four high-quality interior fragrances according to personal preference and mood. In addition, the air quality can be improved by oxygen ionisation and filtering of the incoming air.

The vehicle occupants can switch the fragrance on and off, as well as adjust its intensity. Use of this feature does not change the smell of the interior permanently, not do the fragrance molecules settle on the textile surfaces in the car or the occupants' clothing. The fragrance is subtle, is dispersed gently and subsides again quickly.

There is a container in the glove compartment for the glass flagon with the different fragrances (NIGHTLIFE MOOD, DOWNTOWN MOOD, SPORTS MOOD, FREESIDE MOOD), which are intended to remind one of a perfume. The air in the interior is cleaned through ionising with oxygen and can thus contribute in large part to the feeling of well-being. The package includes air filters that clean the air in the vehicle interior constantly.

The front passenger seat can be electrically moved forward further by up to 77 mm. The enables the passenger seated behind it to enjoy the journey even more. The noticeably larger legroom allows a more comfortable resting position. This is assisted by an electrically extending footrest.

Various adjustment options and settings allow the seat position to be adjusted to individual requirements, with the result that travelling becomes a good deal more relaxed for the rear passenger. The outer head restraints extend themselves automatically if someone gets into the back of the car, which increases occupant safety.

The Chauffeur package comprises the following components:

The intelligent combination of various safety features is a factor in effectively protecting the vehicle against break-ins, theft and towing. The alarm is triggered if, for example, in the event of unauthorised intrusion or short-circuiting of the ignition lock.

If, for example, a car door, the boot lid or bonnet is opened or the ignition lock shorted or removed, an ear-splitting alarm will immediately be sounded, which will unnerve the perpetrator and scare him off. The tow-away protection function responds to a change in the position of the vehicle and can be deactivated – for example, if the car is being towed or loaded onto another vehicle

The stylishly coordinated combination of high-quality appointments meets highest expectations with regard to comfort, quality and design. The effect is heightened in particular in nappa leather seats with contrasting topstitching and a generous use of wood trim.

Overview of equipment:

This combination of complementary safety and assistance systems helps to relieve driver stress, reduces the risk of accidents and improves protection for both the occupants and other road users.

The functions: DISTRONIC PLUS with Steering Assist and Stop & Go Pilot, Active Blind Sport Assist and BAS PLUS with Cross Traffic Assist

The system conveniently opens, starts and locks the vehicle – just by carrying the electronic key. The HANDS-FREE ACCESS function allows contact-free and fully automatic opening and closing of the boot.

In addition, he can open and close the boot lid by pressing the key's remote control buttons. HANDS-FREE ACCESS is a further convenience function. With a kicking motion beneath the rear bumper, the boot lid can be automatically opened and closed.

The elements of the package:

If the driver and front passenger change places frequently, the Memory package offers particular operating convenience. Up to three different positions for the power front seats, steering column and exterior mirrors can be stored at the touch of a button and retrieved.

The switches are arranged logically in the doors and are intuitive to operate. As soon as the driver or front passenger selects his or her setting by pressing the button, the height of the seat, angle of the seat cushions and backrest, steering wheel and exterior mirrors are all automatically moved into their saved positions.

So as to be able to keep things constantly in view when parking, the exterior mirror on the passenger side also has a parking function. This moves the exterior mirror on the passenger side automatically into a position giving the driver a better kerbside view as soon as reverse gear is engaged.

The Memory package contains further features and equipment which enhance comfort and safety:

Active Parking Assist with PARKTRONIC and a reversing camera makes finding a parking space (either parallel to the kerb or in car parks) and parking in it easier. It automatically steers the vehicle into parking spaces and spares the driver the steering and braking actions.

With its active steering and braking interventions, the system significantly boosts driving comfort and makes it possible to park in narrow parking spaces too. PARKTRONIC can recognise obstacles in front of and behind the vehicle. When this happens, the driver is given visual and audible warning signals. In this way,knocks and bumps when manoeuvring are avoided. The driving can take over the steering at any point; Parking Assist then switches itself off.

The elements of the package:

Illuminated seat belt buckle extenders make seat belt fastening easier for rear passengers, and can tension the seat belts in critical situations to increase occupant protection. The beltbag, a type of inflatable belt strap, reduces the loads on the chest during a crash.

In a dangerous situation the PRE-SAFE® system causes the seat belt buckle extender to move down from its neutral position. The tension created in the seat belts holds the passengers in place in a critical driving situation and readies them for possible impact. If a crash does occur, the seat belt buckle extender returns to its higher position to aid rescue of the occupants and the tension in the seat belts is relaxed.

The outer-rear seats are also fitted with a beltbag. This specially-designed belt is woven from a single piece of material and fitted with a tear seam. It is arranged in such a way that the bag area unfurls itself when triggered and can be filled. The beltbag can reduced the pressure on the thorax.

The elements of the package:

Thanks to their inflatable air chambers, the active multicontour seats with ENERGIZING massage function and drive dynamic function ensure the best possible seating comfort and outstanding lateral support. The massage programmes enhance well-being – using heat based on the principle of a relaxing hot-stone massage.

The seats have separately controlled air chambers, which adjust to your individual physiognomic requirements, for example, with lumbar support that can be adjusted in several places and through an additional warming function in the area of the spine.

Improved lateral support for the driver and front passenger when cornering is achieved with the active driving dynamics function, which inflates the seat side bolsters away from the bend in the event of lateral acceleration, thereby stabilising the body safely.

The massage function in the backrest, which has 6 ENERGIZING massage functions, helps to tone up or relax the muscles. It prevents the back muscles from tiring, particularly on long journeys. The occupants can choose between "low" and "high" intensity settings. A massage pad is integrated into the seat backrest.

Two of the programmes have an additional warming effect derived from the principle of a hot-stone massage. Heat and gentle pressure in the spinal area make for particularly beneficial relaxation. At the same time the muscles along the spine are stimulated by gentle movements, improving blood circulation.

The best possible seating comfort on the outer rear seats is ensured by active multicontour seats, which can be even more individually adjusted by inflatable air chambers. The drive dynamic function improves lateral support and the ENERGIZING massage function enhances well-being – also with added heat if required.

The rear passengers are able to adjust the air chambers in the lumbar and shoulder areas individually to suit their personal physique. A lumbar adjustment gives additional support to the spine. When on the move, the side bolsters automatically and dynamically adapt to vehicle movements to provide even better lateral support on winding roads and when driving in a sporty manner.

The ENERGIZING massage function stimulates and relaxes the back muscles as required, with 14 air chambers, six programmes and two intensities. This function helps to ensure a relaxed and refreshed arrival after a long journey. The combination of gentle pressure and pleasant warmth is particularly effective.

The electrically operated roller sun blinds for the rear window and rear side windows enable the passengers to shield themselves from direct sunshine and prying eyes. The view to the outside is maintained.

The roller blind for the rear window is unobtrusively mounted on the parcel shelf and can be conveniently operated at the push of a button from the driver's or front passenger's seat. Thanks to perforations in the blind material, there is practically no sight restriction from inside the vehicle.

On cold days, heating of the seats, armrests and steering wheel very rapidly ensures cosy warmth from all surfaces with which the driver and passengers come into contact.The occupants each have a choice between three heating stages.

The vehicle interior can be further individualised stylishly with this exclusive package. The backs of the front seat backrests are additionally faced in elegant wood, as are the door centre panels and the covers of the rear air vents.
