Sixt Rent A Car has added the new Mercedes-Benz S-Class to the rental fleet at its London Heathrow branch.

The latest S-Class model sees the debut of an intelligent suspension system that uses cameras and sensors to build a 360 degree picture of the car’s surroundings and responds accordingly.

Those looking to rent the S-Class will be able to do so via Sixt’s app, as well as the phone and web.

The app gives users the ability to find a Sixt branch nearby using GPS technology and select from the models available.

By booking via the app the customer has the same advantages as on the internet or the rental branch where they can choose between all available vehicles.

Ian Feast, group managing director operations at Sixt, said: “The Heathrow branch offers a full range of vehicles to suit both personal and business needs, from economy and family cars to convertibles. The addition of the S-Class Mercedes now gives our loyal business customers another premium option.”
