Five stars for the M-Class: Stuttgart – The M-Class has come out of the crash-test programme of the “National Highway Traffic Safety Administration” with flying colours, becoming one of the first SUVs to be awarded the maximum five-star rating for both the frontal and side crashes in the US-NCAP test. Having been highly successful in numerous safety tests covering all vehicle categories all over the world, Mercedes-Benz has now once again proved that, really, one star on the car is all it takes.
