A very short time after the market launch of the new E-Class, Mercedes-Benz is also offering the world's most successful business saloon as a special-protection E-Guard model. This differs from the standard model mainly in that it has an intelligent network of protection features made from special steel and aramide, integrated ex factory beneath the outer skin which is otherwise identical to that of the series-production vehicle. All-round polycarbonate glazing is likewise a part of this protective cocoon. Thus, the new E-Guard Saloon offers its occupants effective protection against the increasing worldwide risk of criminal attack on the road. With this new Guard model, Mercedes-Benz is continuing its eight decades of expertise in the design and production of special protection vehicles.

Its elegance is surpassed only by its safety: the new S 600 Pullman Guard representative vehicle for state occasions with integrated highest protection is based on the S 600 body 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.

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 450 CDI Guard.

The state-of-the-art V8 CDI engine gives the S 450 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.
