Mercedes Benz

A test prototype of the 2012 ML-Klasse model was involved in a tragic accident on the Autobahn 81, near Rottweil, in Germany. The car hit a vehicle that broke down on that motorway. The ML hurled for over 250 meters before rolling over. Sadly, the Mercedes-Benz testdriver could not sustain the heavy injuries he suffered and eventually died after being rushed to hospital.

Our deepest condolences to the family.
