Mercedes adds Parking Guidance and Blind Spot Assist to their Distronic PLUS.
Mercedes-Benz just announced 2 new enhancements to its Distronic PLUS Adaptive Cruise Control.
- Parking Guidance
- Blind Spot Assist
Another enhancement is a 30% price reduction for Distronic PLUS. Together with the additional enhancements and a reduced price of $2,010 (compared to $2,870) the New Distronic PLUS is a significant value.
Parking Guidance and how it works:
A radar based system uses the Distronic PLUS sensors to assist drivers by identifying parallel parking spaces, and shows steering directions into the space in the multifunction display.
At speeds below 25 MPH, potential parking spaces are measured by side-mounted radar sensors as the vehicles passes by. If the vehicles is below 10 MPH. sufficiently large parking spaces are show in the instrument cluster.
Once the vehicles is stopped, and reverse is engaged, steering directions appear in the multifunction display to guide into the parking space.
All the driver has to do is maneuver the vehicles along the marked lines until reaching the stopping positions which are likewise marked in the multifunction display. An audible tone provides further assistance.
Blind Spot Assist and how it works:
Blind Spot Assist also utilizes the radar sensors to monitor the vehicle's "blind spot" and gives the driver visual and audio warnings then a vehicle has entered the blind spot. The blind spot stretches roughly from the B-pillar, to approximately 12 feet to the side left-right and 10 feet beyond the rear of the vehicle.
The system begins to monitor the blind spot once the driver is traveling above 20 MPH. If a vehicle is in the blind spot the driver is alerted by means of an illuminated red triangle in the exterior mirror. If the vehicle is in the blind spot and the drivers turn signal is activated, the visual display will begin to flash, accompanied with an audible tone.




cool....good news for the Mercedes Benz fan club and the owners....as they can find the blind spot and park their car with the aid of these things.....

I like the train of thought in your post but I tend to think you would do well to back up your thought process with a very small amount more solid data.

Write more, that's all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though you relied on the video to make your point. You clearly know what you're talking about, why throw away your intelligence on just posting videos to your blog when you could be giving us something enlightening to read?
