In the early 1970s, General Motors began offering cars equipped with airbags, initially in government fleet-purchased, 1973 Chevrolet Impala sedans. These cars came with a 1974-style Oldsmobile instrument panel and a special steering wheel that contained the driver-side air bag. Two of these cars were crash tested after 20 years and the airbags deployed perfectly.[29] An early example of the air-bag cars survives as of 2009.[30] GM's Oldsmobile Toronado was the first domestic U.S. vehicle to include a passenger airbag.[31][when?][citation needed]
My Mercedes does not have an ESP or an Airbag. In the '90 you needed to pay extra for airbags, nowadays the benefit of airbags are very common, no one would ever renounce airbags in a new car. This was also typical for all other brands at this time, but Mercedes Cars are one of the only brands who live 25 or more year's. #190d
GM was the first to use them in production, correct. They called it "ACRS" or Air Cushion Restraint System. However they were not designed as a Supplemental Restraint System or SRS. They were actually an Active Restraint System designed to replace the shoulder belt. They were also designed to keep the middle passenger safe as well.

1:14 Mercedes didnt develop side airbags and curtains in the early 90's. It was Volvo who first came with side airbags in 1994 and BMW with side head airbags in 1997.
