I had the CLS Coupe 400d 4Matic version on test. The vehicle is powered by a 2.9-litre turbodiesel six-cylinder engine. Power figures are claimed at 250kW/700Nm mated to a 9G-Tronic gearbox.
I have always been a fan of sedans so the CLS was already impressive before I opened the door. When I got inside the car, the real ticker kicked in; Mind-blowing technology ushering Mercedes into the new era.
Design
The third generation is immediately recognizable as CLS. That means the low roofline and therefore limited window surfaces are still there together with the curved beltline and of course the frameless windows. At the same time, Mercedes used the third-generation CLS to introduce its new design language. So you can recognise the modern Mercedes by its narrower, tighter headlights that run through the sides, and on its angular rear lights.

Artificial Intelligence
Is artificial intelligence reinventing insurance? This was the question posed by Bill Hoggarth, national sales manager, Digital Business Solutions at high performing and secure ICT solutions provider, Datacentrix. He was speaking at the recent Robotics, Drones and AI in Insurance Conference, held in Rosebank, Johannesburg. In answer to the question, Hoggarth clarified that no, he did not believe artificial intelligence (AI) was changing the nature of insurance–at least, not on its own. “My view is that AI is not reinventing insurance, but that it is part of the mix of technologies that is causing a shift in insurance today,” he said.
Leading The Future
Leading the modern world requires fast thinking and an impulsive ability to adopt and adapt to the technologically driven era. The way we conduct business today has drastically changed from the way business was conducted ten years ago, failing to integrate innovation and technology could prove fatal to any business.
