Our host Elly Wong is exploring the roots of Southeast Asia, and the new S-Class is along for the ride through some of Vietnam's most stunning landscapes. 🏔️
Her family connection to the region runs deep - and while her ties are in Malaysia, this Vietnam adventure kicks off an unforgettable Southeast Asia journey.
We start high up on Vietnam's highest mountain pass in Sa Pa, where Elly discovers firsthand how the S-Class suspension transforms even the toughest roads into a smooth, connected drive. But this episode is about more than engineering - it's about connection. Elly sits down with a local craftswoman to learn the art of fabric dyeing, then heads to Hanoi where she catches the iconic train-cafe moment everyone's talking about on Instagram.
The journey deepens at the Mercedes-Benz store in Hanoi, where we join the 140 Places celebration. From there, it's breathtaking boat rides through the karst landscapes of Ninh Binh, a custom dress fitting in Hội An that's uniquely personal, and a stunning finale at the Dragon Bridge in Da Nang.
But here's the thing - Elly's journey through Southeast Asia isn't over. With family waiting in Malaysia, the journey continues in the next episode.
