NHTSA Receives Petition for Importation of Nonconforming Mercedes-Benz E500 Cars

Summary

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has announced receipt of a petition seeking to allow the importation of 1995-1997 Mercedes-Benz E500 passenger cars that do not meet all applicable Federal motor vehicle safety standards, as they are substantially similar to compliant US models and can be easily modified to meet standards.
