Does Mercedes-Benz offer automated driving technology? According to a recent press release, Mercedes-Benz is the first automaker to have a level 3 automated driving system which meets legal requirements. Keep reading below to learn more about this technology with Mercedes-Benz of Arrowhead, your dealership in Peoria, AZ.
The first level 3 automated driving system from Mercedes-Benz will be offered in Germany, so don’t get too excited. However, we can hope to see it implemented here someday, possibly within the next few years. This system is called DRIVE PILOT, and it can take over driving on suitable roads.
You might be wondering what a level 3 automated driving system can actually do. After all, many cars are already getting some form of advanced cruise control, which can slow down or speed up the vehicle as needed. A level 3 automated driving system can also do this, but it does other things as well. Here’s a list of possible maneuvers a level 3 automated driving system can perform.
If there is an emergency, the vehicle can prompt the driver to take back control of the vehicle. If the driver fails to do so, the vehicle will decelerate to a standstill. It will also put on its hazard warning lights, activate the emergency call system, and unlock all windows and doors.
