S-Class Coupé - C 140, with ESP® - Mercedes-Benz S-Class Coupé, model series 140. On 15 March 1994, on a frozen lake close to the Arctic Circle at Arjeplog/Sweden, Mercedes-Benz presented the new driving safety system "Electronic Stability Program" (ESP®), developed jointly with Bosch, to the press. The abbreviation ESP® is a registered trademark of Mercedes-Benz. The technology counteracts vehicle skidding and, according to independent studies, can prevent almost half of all serious or fatal single-vehicle accidents. This makes it the most important safety system in the car after the seat belt and even ahead of the airbag.
