Crosswind assistant for new Mercedes Sprinter

The upcoming new Mercedes Sprinter van, will come with a whole army of assistant systems. All are safety related and come from the renowned Mercedes passenger car technology. However, Mercedes has developed a cross wind assistant which opoerates the ESP system in case of fierce crosswinds.

The system activates itself when the Sprinter moves faster than 80 km/h/50 mp/h. At this stage, no details about prices yet. Mercedes also helps the driver of the new Sprinter to ‘overlook’  the aera around the vehicle which is hardly visible with the aid of mirrors. So Mercedes has developed a radar system which helps again by avoiding your new Sprinter to get involved in a collision.

The new Mercedes Sprinter is set for introduction in June.
