What is Mercedes-Benz Drive Pilot®?

The Mercedes-Benz cars at Keyes European have many exciting and advanced new features, like Mercedes-Benz Drive Pilot®. Explore the different programs our luxury performance models offer, and find out what Mercedes-Benz Drive Pilot® can do for you when you come to our dealership.

Mercedes-Benz Drive Pilot®

The Mercedes-Benz Drive Pilot® program brings driving into the future, and there’s no better automaker to take that all-important step than Mercedes-Benz. Currently available in California and select other states, it’s the first SAE Level 3 conditionally automated driving system approved in the United States.

The program allows you to take your eyes off the wheel at up to 40 miles per hour. It will control vehicle speed and distance from surrounding cars and help keep your vehicle straight on the road. It can also respond to traffic situations, thanks to the intricate network of sensors it uses to function.

While the Mercedes-Benz Drive Pilot® program will help you to relax when you’re behind the wheel, the most critical factor in any Mercedes-Benz vehicle is safety. That’s why this model comes with the Driver Assistance package with extra sensors and redundant steering and braking mechanisms.

What Are the Benefits of the Mercedes-Benz Pilot® Program?

The Mercedes-Benz Pilot® Program stands out for many reasons. Here are a few benefits you can expect from appropriately equipped Mercedes-Benz models.

• It is certified for safety by California and Nevada
• It can be used on highways and in traffic conditions
• The route profile is integrated into your drive, including traffic signals
• It will stop the car and engage hazards if a medical event is believed to occur
• It will continue to evolve to meet driving needs
