OFFICIAL PRESS RELEASE
Stuttgart, Germany, Dec 03, 2008
When Academy Award Nominee Naomi Watts celebrated her 40th birthday in Los Angeles this fall, her partner Liev Schreiber (�X-Men,� �The Manchurian Candidate�) surprised her with a spectacular present; a Mercedes-Benz ML320 BlueTEC. Liev and Naomi are among the actors and musicians to discover the exceptional performance, efficiency, and high cruising range of Mercedes-Benz BlueTEC models, the world�s cleanest and most advanced diesels.
In addition to Liev Schreiber and Naomi Watts, fellow BlueTEC drivers from motion pictures and television include �Desperate Housewives� star Kyle McLaughlin, �Sex and the City� siren Kim Cattrall, Academy Award Nominee and Golden Globe Winner Gary Oldman, and �Phantom of the Opera� star and singer Emmy Rossum. �My ML320 BlueTEC has all the power and luxury you�d expect of a Mercedes-Benz, plus the efficiency and low environmental impact of an economy or even hybrid vehicle,� says Emmy Rossum. �BlueTEC really is the best of both worlds.� Also from the world of music, pop superstar Gwen Stefani and her husband, musician Gavin Rossdale, have a BlueTEC parked in their driveway, as does singer Josh Kelley (husband of �Grey�s Anatomy� star Katherine Heigl).
Seven-time Grammy winning artist Alanis Morissette chose the fuel-efficient Mercedes-Benz BlueTEC for the video of �Underneath�, the first single and video from her latest album, �Flavors of Entanglement.� In the video, Alanis is sitting at a bus stop wearing a �Save the Earth� t-shirt and distributing fliers to encourage concern for the environment. When a Mercedes-Benz E320 BlueTEC passes by, Alanis salutes the Mercedes driver in appreciation for their environmentally aware choice. "Making green choices on a local level is important in creating global change,� says Alanis. �I'm glad that Mercedes-Benz has introduced a great option with BlueTEC.�
BlueTEC have also starred in some of the hottest television shows and series this season, including �90210� (CW), �The Amazing Race� (CBS), �Privileged� (CW), �Starter Wife� (USA Network), and �The Tonight Show with Jay Leno� (NBC).
About Mercedes-Benz BlueTEC
The BlueTEC wave began in October 2006 when Mercedes-Benz introduced the E320 BlueTEC sedan; it immediately captured accolades from consumers and critics alike and was voted �2007 World Green Car of the Year.� Now Mercedes-Benz has expanded the BlueTEC product range with the introduction of three new SUV�s - the R, ML and GL 320 BlueTEC - the first diesel SUV�s to meet the stringent emissions standards of all 50 States. The term �BlueTEC� is derived from the revolutionary AdBlue process that injects a reducing agent in the vehicle�s exhaust line, thereby clearly reducing emissions.
