The SL-Class is fitted with the innovative electro-hydraulic braking system (SBC™). A landmark piece of technology developed by Mercedes-Benz, it links with the existing Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) and Electronic Stability Program (ESP). It comes as standard on every SL-Class. The system enhances the mechanical braking process with sophisticated electronics. Sensors "feel" the driver's foot on the pedal and transmit messages to the SBC™ computer, making for a truly remarkable system that works with you for smoother and more responsive braking.
