Does Mercedes have adaptive cruise control?

I have been looking at a few luxury car brands and want adaptive cruise control. Does Mercedes offer it on their cars?

Yes!
Mercedes
does have adaptive cruise control—though they call it DISTRONIC PLUS. It’s an active cruise control system designed to maintain a safe distance behind the traffic ahead of you. It uses radar and sensors to monitor the space between your car and the one in front of you. As a result, you can move with traffic flow better than a conventional single-speed cruise control system—there’s no fidgeting, just cruising.
Mercedes’ DISTRONIC system is available on most new models, but it may or may not come standard. If you’re keen on having adaptive cruise control in your vehicle, speak to your local Mercedes dealer to find out which models have it!
In addition to having adaptive cruise control in your vehicle, make sure it’s also protected with a solid car insurance policy. When you shop for car insurance with
