27.900.000 km – that’s how far our car models travel for field validation. This and other insights into how safety of and in Mercedes-Benz vehicles is continuously improved were shared by experts straight from the Mercedes-Benz Research & Development hub in Sindelfingen to our head office in Mulgrave last week. Jochen, Head of Active Safety and Testing and Matthias, Senior Engineer Automated Driving, shared with us how Mercedes-Benz is working on making our cars and, the road safer for every user. Diving into the history of innovation from the development of passive safety features in the 1950s such as the crumple zone to recent active features including Active Brake Assist and PRE-SAFE®, they also talked about what we can expect to see in the future when it comes to autonomous driving. A big thank you to Jochen and Matthias for the visit and opportunity to learn, ask questions and get hands-on insights into the future of safety in Mercedes-Benz vehicles. Stay tuned across our social channels to hear from the experts yourself!

Last night's opening of Melbourne Design Week at the National Gallery of Victoria set the stage for what promises to be a transformative week ahead, bringing together design enthusiasts, innovators, and creatives from around the globe. Underscored by the theme of ‘Design the world you want’, Melbourne Design Week asks creatives how we can use design to create a better and more sustainable world for everyone. To celebrate, we invited this year’s Melbourne Design Week Award winners – Adam Goodrum and Arthur Seigneur, collectively known as A&A to reimagine the all-electric EQE SUV’s exterior which was on display for all to enjoy. We want to thank National Gallery of Victoria for hosting, and we extend our congratulations to A&A for this exceptional achievement.
