For the first time, the A-Class Sedan offers semi-autonomous driving in certain conditions. The sedan is able to monitor surrounding traffic with improved camera and radar systems that allow the A-Class to “see” more than 1,500 feet ahead (or up to 500 meters). The sedan also uses map and navigation data for several assistance functions.
The 2019 A-Class is optionally available with numerous advanced driver-assistance systems inspired by the S-Class. Active Brake Assist, however, is offered as standard equipment on the A-Class. Active Brake Assists helps to mitigate or avoid the consequences of rear-end collisions with vehicles ahead. The system also monitors the road ahead for crossing pedestrians and cyclists and can intervene if necessary.
The available driver-assistance systems are added to the A-Class via the Driver Assistance Package. See the list of available systems below:
