About the car
An automatic rollbar, which extends within 0.3 seconds in the event that the car is rolled, was used in the R 129 for the first time. Another safety feature is the A pillars which are resistant to buckling to a large extent in the event of an accident. The integral seat, in which the seatbelt and headrest are integrated into the seat, was new. It offers significantly better lateral support than the seats used until that point.
The scope of delivery for the vehicle includes a hard top which, for a short time one year after the start of production, could be cancelled for a price reduction and which protects the soft top during the winter.
Vehicle description
