On October 21, 2026, Mercedes announced that from 2027 it will offer automated driving from start to destination in production cars, with the driver still required to monitor at all times and bear responsibility. According to heise online, the system is equipped with 10 cameras, 5 radars and 12 ultrasonic sensors, a computing platform with up to 254 TOPS, and combines MB.OS with Nvidia Hyperion, Halos and the Alpamayo Stack. The report also states that at the end of 2026 it will first launch for selected customers in Stuttgart and Munich, that existing owners with hardware support can upgrade via OTA, and that a one-month free trial will be offered. The plan is currently at the announcement stage, and there is no qualified factual evidence of subsequent implementation progress.
