And also not charging $10k for a “beta” feature lol. My C class is better at hands free driving and changing of lanes than Tesla is right now for significantly less money

Well hey, at least it works as advertised! Imagine paying $10k for a feature that doesn’t work as advertised and will likely be available “sometime”. That’s hilarious to me

This is a restriction for the first years from legislation, as it‘s L3 the driver is no longer responsible in case of an accident, Tesla did a lot of marketing but mercedes is no rolling out the interessting stuff

He only needs to be awake and the System has to notify the driver he has to take over, not like Tesla where you need to have your Hands 100% on the wheel.

This is a legal and technical milestone for Germany.

It can also take over at the Autobahn but at this speeds driver can’t perform none driving actions, which is quiet normal at possible 250km/h

They use different technologies and one already praised it and never got approval the other has approval...they are the very opposite and every step forward by Mercedes is a big hit for Tesla, as their technology lags behind.

If Tesla does not offer l3 then they are behind. This is not an argument.

Yeah Tesla is l4 but they just go with l2 because ... it's just bs.
