Glare free instrumentation

For optimum instrument readability even in bright sunlight, there's an Electro–Chromatic Device (ECD) system installed in the meter glass of the dash. It controls sunlight reflection by day and enhances the readout visibility at night, allowing the instrumentation to keep you informed at all times.

Interior Treatment

A metallic finish on the meter faces and gear shifter face plate complements the clean, contemporary look of the GS interior. The steering wheel incorporates controls for the audio, cruise control, phone, Multi Information Display and speech commands.

Climate controlled seats with memory

Whatever the weather, Climate Controlled Front seats keep you refreshed on long hot journeys, or toasty warm on cool days. Eight–way power adjustment lets you easily tailor settings to maintain your preferred posture. If another driver has been in your car, the memory function allows personalised settings to be instantly recalled at the touch of a button.

Audiophile quality Mark Levinson audio system

Immerse your mind in the indulgence of an audio system by world renowned designer Mark Levinson. The 14–speaker system he created has a six–disc DVD/CD changer and an Automatic Sound Leveliser which continuously fine tunes sound quality. Audio controls are conveniently located on the steering wheel. In addition, a USB connector provides the functionality for flash memory drives and full iPod®* control via the EMV (Electro Multi Vision) touch screen.

In–built Bluetooth® keeps you in touch

Simply register your Bluetooth®^† compatible mobile with the inbuilt system for hands free communication. Call functions are right at your fingertips via the EMV screen, letting you search the phone book, register and receive calls.

Satellite Navigation guidance

You'll be directed efficiently to your destination by a DVD–based Satellite Navigation^‡ system which offers enhanced precision. Visual maps and spoken commands provide directions, making paper maps a thing of the past.

Park Assist Monitor

Once you select reverse, a colour image appears on the Electro Multi Vision (EMV) display. On–screen guidelines help you plot the ideal course into your parking space.

Rear view camera with Rear Guide Assist

For easier reversing, you have the guidance of a Rear View Camera^ discreetly mounted above the licence plate. Select reverse and a colour image of what's immediately behind your rear bumper appears on the Electro Multi Vision (EMV) screen. Rear Guide Assist gives you a more precise indication of distances for easier parking and reversing.

Power Rear Sunshade

To reduce glare, an electric rear sunshade emerges at the touch of a button for greater passenger comfort.
