New S-Class sedan bets on comfortThe new Mercedes-Benz S-Class sedan is pictured during its presentation at the Daimler production plant in Sindelfingen on Wednesday. (Reuters photo)SINDELFINGEN, Germany: Mercedes-Benz engineers are striving to meet every definition of comfort in the new S-Class sedan as they try to steal a march on rival Tesla Inc, which wowed audiences with its "fart mode." "That's along with 'Uebertragungsverhalten', or the seat's ability to absorb bumps in the road, and 'Langstreckenkomfort', or long-range comfort features,'' the vehicle's moustachioed chief engineer Juergen Weissinger told Reuters. It has led the Lastenheft, or engineering blueprint, of the S-Class to expand from a pamphlet into a huge tome. The new S-Class can be ordered in Germany from mid September, and will be in dealerships in December.
