Technology and innovation: solar paint, autonomous driving, neuromorphic computing
The Vision Iconic is equipped with a number of innovative technologies that redefine the concept of mobility:
Solar Paint:A photovoltaic coating that turns the entire car body into a surface that can generate electricity. Under ideal conditions it can generate electricity for up to 12,000 km per year.
Level 4 autonomous driving:A highly automated driving system that allows drivers to relax, watch videos, and even sleep while driving on the highway.
Neuromorphic computing:Technology that mimics the workings of the human brain reduces energy consumption by up to 90% during autonomous driving, enabling faster and more accurate reactions in complex situations.
Steer-by-Wire:An electric steering system that completely eliminates mechanical connections provides greater precision, improved operability, and expanded interior space.
Interior: Hypersensory luxury with the spirit of Art Deco
The interior combines 20th century craftsmanship with 21st century technology.
In the center is a floating glass dashboard known as the Zeppelin, where analog and digital instruments coexist in harmony. Decorations such as mother-of-pearl, polished brass, and straw inlays lend a signature Art Deco elegance, while deep blue velvet seats create a lounge-like atmosphere.
In the center of the four-spoke steering wheel, the Mercedes-Benz emblem encapsulated in a glass bulb shines – a piece of automotive design jewelry. The entire cabin embodies the brand’s philosophy of “immersive luxury” and provides an experience that appeals to all five senses.
