The New Electric Car program advances fuel-cell technology to a practical size, fitting in the NECAR 1 van, and the compact NECAR 3 just three years later. Zero-emission fleet. Rethinking energy. Change the batteries. The entire battery pack in this experimental city van can be quickly exchanged with a fully charged pack, good for another 30 miles of in-town driving. CHARGED WITH PROGR ESS Since the invention of the automobile, the advancement of human mobility has been more than a mission to Mercedes-Benz. It’s an ongoing, ever-growing commitment. Over 100 fuel-cell vehicles are in worldwide customer use, ranging from small cars to city buses. They’ll travel more than 2.8 million emission-free miles. The energy crisis motivates the exploration of gas alternatives. A prototype plug-in hybrid wagon teams batteries with a small gas range extender. Leading in style. Electric dream car. The seductive F 800 concept features a compact lithium-ion hybrid battery, a world’s first that reaches production just months later in the new S‑Class hybrid. The four electric motors of the SLS AMG E‑CELL concept sync up for 750 hp, making the greenest AMG sports car to date its most powerful as well. Gas-electric “Mixte.” With a small gas engine and a generator powering electric motors in its rear wheel hubs, the hybrid “Mercedes-Mixte” is produced for eight years. Charging ahead. “Electrique” elegance. Every Mercedes-Benz automobile has its roots in the 1886 patent awarded to Karl Benz for the first car. But it’s reaching for the blue sky, with an ever-growing passion for progress, that has kept that family tree strong. And while more than 80,000 patents may impart some bragging rights, that’s not what keeps an automaker at the forefront of innovation. What drives Mercedes-Benz engineers are the people who drive Mercedes-Benz automobiles. Satisfying their needs. Inspiring their dreams. And above all, protecting what they hold most dear: their future. From the safety of the passengers they carry to the stewardship of the planet they drive upon, MercedesBenz innovation does not come merely from the desire to be first. It’s driven by a sense of responsibility to see the world honestly, foresee how it could be better, and forge the way there. Progress is the difference between “could” and “can.” And leadership is when there’s no difference whatsoever between “should” and “does.” A new generation of batteryelectric vehicles is underway at Mercedes-Benz. SUV and commercial van concepts preview the very near future. Just 20 years after inventing the car, Daimler markets its Mercedes-Electrique as “the safest, quietest and most modern electric town car.” Mercedes-Benz has been advancing alternative fuels for over a century. 1906 1907 1972 1982 1994 2006 2010 2012 Next ENERGIZING THE FUTURE A B AT T E R Y OF ANSWERS The single most defining characteristic of an innovation leader is being far from single-minded. An extraordinary breadth of achievements must be brought to life with unmatched depth. It’s why Mercedes-Benz is electrifying the future in ways that extend far beyond the automobile itself. There’s only one way for an automaker to possess a rich heritage — and it’s not by living in the past. The path to having a meaningful history is to keep making history. Since inventing the car, the company that later merged with Daimler to become Mercedes-Benz has been doing one thing: continually reinventing it. And while that one thing is actually hundreds of thousands of ideas, trials, breakthroughs and improvements, they all add up to a singular, neverending trajectory: making driving better. The passion for the open road is just one factor in the complex equation of personal transportation. And for more than 130 years, it’s likely that no automaker has explored, experimented and excelled in more arenas of motoring — from safety firsts to racing wins — than Mercedes-Benz. Even more significant is how many Mercedes-Benz innovations have gone on to become the standard that’s used by the entire industry: Safety advancements from crumple zones to stability control. Comforts like ambient lighting and ventilated seats. And performance firsts from fuel injection to the lithium-ion hybrid battery. And can you name another brand that’s put gasoline, diesel, hybrid, plug-in hybrid, fuel-cell and battery- electric vehicles into its customers’ driveways? In the next few years, Mercedes-Benz will launch a line of all-electric vehicles that will advance the automobile by delivering the next generation not only of power, but of safety, luxury and performance, too. In addition, Daimler is deeply invested in developing new ways that people will generate, store and dispense the energy to fuel them. And once again, innovation will advance the heritage of Mercedes-Benz, and accelerate the future of mobility. The pathway to earning every patent, trophy and loyal customer starts with one question: “How can we make driving better?” No matter how many times MercedesBenz engineers answer it, they’ll never stop asking it. ENERGY STARS MORE THAN A MERCEDES -BENZ Beyond the virtues that make every Mercedes-Benz an industry standout, the electrified models make the Star shine with a brilliance all their own. With intelligent technologies, they can interpret the traffic, analyze the terrain, and even inform the driver’s right foot, to optimize driving range and efficiency. From safety to performance to comfort, the advanced engineering of a Mercedes-Benz is its signature virtue. The intelligent technology in the plug-in hybrid models and all- electric B 250e makes them even more virtuous. Each of the hybrids features an electric motor that can efficiently enhance the gasoline engine’s response with an instant boost of torque. They can also cover many commutes1 on battery power alone, or team up to deliver from 50 to 63 MPGe on the highway.2 The compact lithium-ion battery — the size of an ordinary car battery — can be fully charged in as little as 2.5 hours at a public charging station, or by the gas engine while you drive.1 Radar-based Regenerative Braking — standard on all the hybrids and a B 250e option — monitors your distance to traffic ahead, to help recapture energy as you slow down and use it to charge the battery. Along with four driving modes from pure-electric to saving the battery for later, the hybrids can apply navigation* data to optimize the use of gas and electric power on a trip. Even if you don’t input a route, it analyzes the topography up to four miles ahead. And when driving a C 350e or S 550e on battery power, a “haptic” accelerator pedal can let you know by feel when you can coast, or how to avoid engaging the gas engine. It all adds up to more range from less gas. *Optional or not available on some models. Please see back of brochure. STAR TREATMENT NOTH I NG L E SS THAN A MERCEDES - BENZ Why would you choose a Mercedes-Benz over any other luxury hybrid? The same reasons you’d choose any Mercedes-Benz: an unmatched balance of finely crafted luxury and first-of-its-kind innovation. From hand-finished wood* and richly tailored seating to industry-advancing entertainment and driver assists, there are rewards for all your senses. And from groundbreaking safety to corner-hugging handling to in-car Internet, no other hybrid sedan or SUV can make you feel so protected or connected. Simply put, the unparalleled experience of driving a MercedesBenz is undiminished by its added efficiency. Lower emissions in no way reduce the emotions it imparts via its driver seat. In fact, in many ways you get more: Each model has greater total gas-electric horsepower and torque than its class competitors. They can whisk you away with extra-silken smoothness and an uncanny sensation of quiet strength. The comfort of their cabins can be ready upon your arrival — warmed in winter or cooled off after parking in the sun — thanks to pre-entry climate control via the car’s smartphone app.3 And each model features upgrades of its own, from air suspension to additional luxuries — as well as distinctive “Hybrid Blue” accents in its headlamps and brakes. *Optional or not available on some models. Please see back of brochure. 87 MILES OF RANGE 100% MERCEDES-BENZ Is a pure electric vehicle (EV) a good fit for you? A few simple questions will give you an idea. First, how far do you drive on a daily basis? The high-performance 28-kWh battery pack of the B 250e can take you up to 87 miles on a full charge.1 For work, school, shopping — or maybe all three — that might be more than enough. Next, where will you charge it? Lots of public places offer charging stations, and you can plug it in at home (read more below). What happens when you need to go farther? The answer to that might make a B 250e an ideal second car, or maybe it makes sense to rent a car for the annual vacation — and stay gasoline-free the rest of the year. Aside from its zero tailpipe emissions, you’re likely to find a B 250e to be surprisingly familiar. From its clear gauges and rich cabin materials to its responsive handling, it drives like a true Mercedes-Benz — because it is one. Solid, stable and secure, its standard safety advances include the radar-based forward collision mitigation of Active Brake Assist,4 as well as ATTENTION ASSIST® to help detect a drowsy driver.5 Like its gas-powered siblings, it wears its science on the inside. Its styling is sporty and elegant, from grille to LED taillamps. And its clever shape and under-floor battery pack maximize inner space, without looking like it came from outer space. THE NO - EMISSION, A L L - EL ECTR IC B 250e EASY RECHARGING SELF-REGENERATING You “refuel” your B 250e by plugging it in — at home, the mall, the office, airport parking decks, or many other places. The standardized charging port is easy to use, and you can check its progress on the car’s smartphone app.3 Most public charging stations can fully charge the battery in 3.5 hours, or do a 60-mile “top-up” in just two hours. At home or where a charging station isn’t nearby, you can use an ordinary 120volt household outlet. Your local power utility may even offer incentives for installing a faster 240-volt home charger.6 And the standard RANGE PLUS Package lets you add 15 more miles to a charge if you know you’ll be needing to go a little farther.1 Just like a gasoline engine, an EV uses energy to accelerate, even if it does so more smoothly and quietly than you may be used to. With 251 lb-ft of torque on tap from a standstill, the sporty B 250e can rush to 60 mph in a 7.9-second whisper.7 But unlike a gasoline car, it can earn some “fuel” back as you decelerate. Its regenerative braking feature captures energy at the wheels and sends it back to recharge the battery. An industry-first option uses radar to watch traffic ahead, then adapts the brakes to optimize energy recuperation, to help you get more miles from a charge. Paddles on the steering wheel let you step it up manually too, a lot like downshifting.8 U N PLUG IT, AND IT R ECH A RGE S YOU FLEXIBLE CABIN POWERFUL APP If all-electric driving is a good fit for your driving style, you’ll find the B 250e is also an especially good fit for your lifestyle. Its battery packs nest under the cabin in a dedicated “energy space,” maximizing the room for people and their gear. Five adults can ride comfortably in the cabin. The shapely power front seats include standard memory, and are available with soothing heating and supple, hand-fitted leather upholstery in Black, Nut Brown or Cranberry Red. The rear seats feature a folding center armrest with a pass-through for long items, or you can fold them down in a 60/40 split to create up to 51.4 cu ft of carpeted cargo space — as much as some SUVs.9 Whether it’s plugged in or unplugged, Mercedes me makes it easy to stay connected to your B 250e.3 Five years of mbrace® Connect services are standard, including a smartphone app with remote vehicle features. The touch of a button in the app can also bring you to the My Mercedes Electric Vehicle Homepage, with features specially tailored for EV life. You can view your car’s charge status, map its driving range, locate charging stations and more, all from the Chrome™ or Safari® Web browser on your phone. You can also preheat or cool the cabin while the car is plugged in, to help conserve your driving range. Learn more at MBUSA.com/mercedesme *Optional or not available on some models.

Each of them multiplies brainpower and horsepower to enhance both performance and efficiency. With well over 400 lb-ft of torque, all three hybrids accelerate swiftly.7 Two of them are even quicker than their gas-only siblings, and all of them lead their competitive sets. And with their batteries fully charged, they can each return exceptional efficiency on the highway: up to 50 MPGe in the all-wheel-drive GLE 550e SUV, 61 MPGe in the C 350e, and 63 MPGe in the S 550e.2 All three plug-in hybrids use a strategic approach to deliver extended benefits from their dual power sources. Clever use of multiple technologies can optimize powertrain operation to maximize efficiency. When you use COMAND® navigation* on longer trips,11 Route-Based Battery Optimization analyzes the journey. Based on the geography, it can decide when to use electric power and when to let the gas engine propel the car and charge the batteries for city driving later on.1 Even with no route input, it can scan the topography for climbs and descents up to 4 miles ahead. And at any time, onboard radar can optimize the regenerative braking based on traffic ahead.8 THE GAS - ELECTRIC PLUG - I N H Y BR IDS REMOTE POSSIBILITIES REFINED PERFORMANCE Mercedes me puts convenience and power in your pocket, with a smartphone app that offers an array of remote vehicle controls.3 The tap of a smartphone button can also take you to the My Mercedes Electric Vehicle Homepage, with features designed to enhance your plug-in life. You can locate charging stations* with just a few clicks, and then monitor your car’s charge status as it juices up. With remote pre-entry climate control, you can prepare the cabin comfort before you get in. Five standard years of mbrace® Connect services are powered through the Mercedes me app, and also include in-car apps like local search. Options include in-car WiFi and iHeartRadio.® A plug-in hybrid Mercedes-Benz doesn’t merely increase the efficiency and lower the emissions of its gas-only version. It elevates each model’s character to a new level. The C 350e grows even sportier and more luxurious with standard 18" wheels and self-leveling, multimode AIRMATIC® suspension. Supple leather, lush harman/kardon® surround sound, and Blind Spot12 and Lane Keeping5 Assists are a few of the ways the GLE 550e is even more rewarding and reassuring. And while the S 550e sets the same standard for innovation and luxury as the gasoline-powered S 550 Sedan, it also delivers its full suite of hybrid technologies for the very same price. European model shown. LONG - R A NGE BENEFITS, STARTING NOW INTELLIGENT MODES EXUBERANT MOODS The intelligent hybrid systems in the plug-in models let you choose among four drive modes. HYBRID mode is the default setting, and it’s smart enough to use all the time to maximize your convenience while it optimizes the car’s performance. It engages the gas and electric motors based on conditions like terrain and navigation route data. The all-electric E-MODE offers locally emission-free driving around town, with 100% of the electric motor’s torque on call at any time. On longer trips, E-SAVE conserves battery power on the open highway for all-electric driving when you get into a city. And CHARGE mode replenishes the battery by driving on gas-only power. The “e” at the end of the plug-in hybrids’ model names may stand foremost for their electrified powertrains, enhanced efficiency and ultralow emissions. But in addition to toeing a green line, each is also a pure Mercedes-Benz with a passion for the redline. So while their eco-friendlier benefits appeal to your sensibilities, they spark your desire just as enticingly. The quiet power of their electric boost whisks you to speed in both a rush and a hush. Their high tech meshes seamlessly with human nature, not only with their intelligent operation and intuitive controls but by wrapping it all in finely crafted furnishings. The “e” also stands for emotion and excitement. *Optional or not available on some models.

While public charging stations offer convenience when you travel, there are numerous ways, reasons, and financial incentives to outfit your home for charging. It’s a plug for the future — yours. Odds are pretty good that no one you know has a gas station in their garage. While the idea of it may have an indulgent appeal — a lot like having your own valet parking attendant at home — the complexity of procuring, storing and safely dispensing gasoline makes it impractical if not impossible. With a plug‑in hybrid or 100% electric vehicle, however, you already have some or all of its “fuel” in your home — electricity. Charging your plug‑in at home is convenient, easy and cost-effective. And preparing your home for charging is an investment in the future of driving. While there are multiple factors to consider when investing in home charging , there are also numerous resources to help you electrify your driving. Mercedes-Benz USA has partnered with Bosch® Electric Vehicle Solutions. Bosch offers a selection of EV charging stations for indoor and outdoor locations, and with a variety of cable lengths to suit your parking layout. Their website is a great place to find information, explore local, state and federal incentives for which you might be eligible, and find a local electrician who’s a Bosch-recommended installer. And with Mercedes me3 and its suite of smartphone features, you can find public charging stations, check your car’s charge status, and even pre-cool or warm the cabin while the vehicle is plugged in, to help maximize its driving range on battery power. With a little preparation, “e” will start to mean more to you than electric, efficient and eco-friendly. It’ll also stand for easy.
