Mercedes Benz F700 DIESOTTO.
The F700 'research car' previews Mercedes-Benz's current thinking on how to replace a car as good as the S-Class - and it's a lot more radical under its gold-painted skin than it looks at first.
It aims to take ride comfort to a new level by anticipating the condition of the road and levelling out any unevenness using an active hydraulic suspension system called Pre-Scan. Laser scanners in the headlamps check out the road ahead and set the dampers accordingly. The 5.17m-long F700 also showcases developments in reduction of road noise and tyre vibration.

Mercedes Benz F400 CARVING.
DaimlerChrysler is exhibiting a special concept study at the 35th Tokyo Motor Show: the F 400 Carving is a research vehicle packed with dynamic systems designed to give the cars of tomorrow and beyond substantially enhanced active safety, dynamic handling control and driving pleasure.
Like a number of other manufacturers, Mercedes is researching the viability of a new system that varies the camber angle on the outer wheels between 0 and 20 degrees, depending on the road situation. Used in conjunction with newly-developed tyres, the Mercedes implementation provides 30 percent more lateral stability than a conventional system with a fixed camber setting and standard tyres.
Active camber control boosts the research vehicle's maximum lateral acceleration to 1.28 g, meaning that the concept study outperforms current sports cars by some 28 percent.
