Mercedes-Benz鈥檚 Distronic Plus With Steering Assist




The self-driving car is a proposition too enticing for society at large to ignore. Lotus Seven enthusiast and new CEO of Google鈥檚 self-driving-car project John Krafcik sees it as the way forward, citing the need to sell on safety. Built by Roush in Livonia, Michigan, Google鈥檚 wee nugget of a thing reminds us more of college-student-proof furniture than an actual vehicle, right down to the teal plastic accents in the interior. Twenty-odd years later, this hat-shaped thing rolls up to us in the rooftop parking lot of one of Google鈥檚 Mountain View, California buildings. The coupe-length door opens via a pillar-mounted handle. The sheer size of the portal makes ingress a breeze. Once inside, we鈥檙e greeted with an expansive, slightly distorted view via a flexible, pedestrian-impact-friendly windshield. The whole thing feels a bit like a Renault Twizy re-imagined as a side-by-side. Where the steering wheel, dash, and pedals would be, there鈥檚 simply a bin with a screen mounted over it, showing an approximation of what the car sees, largely gleaned from its laser-scanning sensors.





We mashed 鈥淕O,鈥?the car responded with a brief countdown, and off we went around the parking lot, whirring like a tiny BART train鈥攁t speeds below 25 mph. As such, any estimated skidpad numbers, 0-60 figures, and other performance prognostications are rendered wholly baseless, so we won鈥檛 make them. What was interesting and frankly impressive was exactly how surefooted the system felt. Mercedes-Benz鈥檚 Distronic Plus with Steering Assist, perhaps the best self-driving system on sale today, feels positively primitive, tentative, and sketchy compared to the authority with which GumNut the Koala Car goes about its business. A man on a bicycle with a Rastafarian paint scheme shoots out from nowhere and the smartypants runabout slows its roll smoothly and surely, system unfazed by the two-wheeled miscreant. Its behavior is the result of 1.2 million miles traveled by the company鈥檚 autonomous fleet, a group of vehicles that continues to amass about 15,000 miles鈥?worth of data every week.





And while your average C/D reader may log more miles than that over the course of a year, Joe Schmuck Commuter very likely doesn鈥檛. The company points out that over the life of the program so far, it has amassed 90 years鈥?worth of driving experience. And unlike a 106-year-old driver, its servers鈥?reaction times are only getting faster. Our recent ride in Mercedes鈥檚 F015 Luxury in Motion concept left us suspicious that a nearby blacked-out Sprinter hid a pack of Swabians huddled over a console, controlling the car鈥檚 movements. If there was a cadre of Google-ites joysticking this wheeled Pikachu to and fro, we鈥檇 be surprised. We鈥檙e pretty sure little GumNut was acting pretty much on its own, save its mandate to follow a pre-planned route with defined start and stop points. Before our ride in the prototype, we went for a spin on city streets in one of Google鈥檚 Lexus RX development vehicles.





The 鈥榰tes are piloted by two-person teams, with one manning the controls and the other observing what the car 鈥渟ees鈥?on a laptop. And if the Lexus wasn鈥檛 quite as smooth as the Koalamobile, it was also faced with more demanding tasks, navigating neighborhoods, intersections, and other vehicles鈥攙ehicles driven by erratic, imperfect humans. Part of the reason Google鈥檚 machines are so good鈥攂eyond the miles logged鈥攊s that they鈥檙e running on roads the company has mapped in great detail. So is this little widget of an automatic automobile the future? Yes and no. It鈥檚 patently silly to think that self-driving vehicles aren鈥檛 the way forward. The potential societal benefits are too great. If nothing else, insurance companies hate to pay out, and autonomous vehicles have the potential to remove human fallibility from the equation. It鈥檚 a fool鈥檚 errand to believe that that Big Insurance won鈥檛 squeeze wallets and Washington to keep your hands off the tiller. Meanwhile, Google has gone on record that it doesn鈥檛 want to be in the car business; we鈥檇 expect the company to fall into the Tier I supplier realm, designing systems for automakers to install in their own vehicles. Certainly, Google鈥檚 tech makes the mildly autonomous systems on sale today seem patently rudimentary in function. But we do have one request: Whatever the brave (or pusillanimous) autonomous future holds for us, might we spec it with less teal Tupperware, please?

Mercedes-Benz Automates The Valet, And It Can Even Avoid Luddites Parking Themselves




No matter when or where you need to do it, parking can easily be the most frustrating part of a day out. Valet parking might sound great but, well, we鈥檝e seen Ferris Bueller鈥檚 Day Off enough times that handing over the keys to a stranger raises the anxiety level, too. Autonomous-driving technology could very well be the solution. Such automation is exactly what Mercedes-Benz has demonstrated in the multi-story parking building at the automaker鈥檚 museum in Stuttgart, Germany. To enable it, the driver would leave the vehicle on a valet-parking pad and turn over autonomous control of the vehicle to the automated valet by pressing a Park button on a smartphone app. The car is assigned a parking spot automatically and follows commands from the parking garage鈥檚 system to find it. When the owner is ready to return for the car, he or she can summon the vehicle back to an area adjacent to the valet-parking pad for a hassle-free exit. The automaker and the tech supplier plan to do an 鈥渆xtensive trial鈥?of the system after this week鈥檚 demonstration, followed by a commissioning phase.





The Macan鈥檚 standard multimedia system features a 7-inch touch-screen and 70-plus physical buttons that litter the interior. 2,990 Infotainment Package. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto aren鈥檛 available on the 2016 Macan, but CarPlay will debut on the 2017 Macan GTS. Other options include just about everything under the sun 鈥?including a fire extinguisher and two optional stereos. The standard 11-speaker stereo features a USB input with iPod connectivity. 5,690. The mid-level Bose is decent enough but doesn鈥檛 stand out in any particular way for its hefty price. The small-interior theme continues in cargo and storage space. A center console overrun with buttons doesn鈥檛 leave room for extra storage, and there are just two cupholders and a small, square-shaped, shallow storage bin under the center armrest. The BMW X4 and X6 at least provide a nifty sliding cover over their cupholders to store loose items, and the GLE-Class coupe has a separate cubby area for phones and other items. Luggage space behind the Macan鈥檚 40/20/40-split folding backseat is a small 17.7 cubic feet that鈥檚 deep but narrow, and the aggressively sloped roofline doesn鈥檛 provide much room for taller objects.





Cargo space is more similar to a Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class (17.2 cubic feet) or BMW X4 (17.7 cubic feet) than to the roomier X6 (26.6 cubic feet) or GLE-Class coupe (23 cubic feet). The Macan had not been crash-tested as of publication. Available safety systems include blind spot monitoring, called Lane Change Assist, and Lane Keeping Assist, which automatically nudges the vehicle after it veers from a lane. A backup camera is also optional and comes with front and rear parking sensors. Also cryptically named, Porsche Active Safe is the Macan鈥檚 forward collision warning system with autonomous braking. 1,440. See all the Macan鈥檚 safety features here, and check out how well child-safety seats fit in the Macan in the Car Seat Check. The Macan鈥檚 combination of small size, high price, sports-car-like handling and luxurious interior make it a genuinely unique compact luxury SUV. The bulk of Macans in Cars.com鈥檚 national inventory are more expensive than similarly sized X4s or Evoques. 42,470. At that price, though, you get only 240 hp, making it far less of a performance buy. 66,025) as closer competitors, considering the cost to get into one is closer to what it will likely take to buy a Macan. The Macan S is at a size disadvantage compared with the GLE450 and the X6 in terms of both cargo space and backseat room, but it manages to not feel overpriced for its small size. 69,455, wasn鈥檛 offensive given its impressive quality, performance and distinctive Porsche flair.





Porsche has launched a monthly subscription service in North America called Porsche Passport, which provides members on-demand access for up to 22 different Porsche models. 2,000 (拢1,515), Porsche Passport users can drive a Porsche of their choosing, which is then delivered to their door. 3,000 (拢2,270) a month and gives users access to 22 different Porsche variants such as the 911 Carrera S, Panamera 4S, Macan GTS and Cayenne S E-Hybrid in addition to vehicles included in the Launch subscription package. Currently, the subscription service is being piloted in Atlanta, Georgia where Porsche North America is based. The membership plan includes vehicle registration, tax, insurance and maintenance. Users have to sign up via the Porsche Passport app developed by Clutch Technologies, which is available on Apple and Android devices. 500 is required while membership is dependant on a credit and background check. Once approved, Porsche Passport users in the Atlanta metro can gain access to the Porsche range from next month. The subscription programme is still in its infancy and is currently exclusive to Atlanta, Georgia. After the pilot programme, both Porsche and Clutch Technologies will determine whether or not to expand Porsche Passport to further locations in North America and potentially in Europe. Would you consider a service like Porsche Passport if it came to the UK?





Is there some place I can get the owner's manual for the 2019 Cayenne base as a PDF file? This seems to be a recurring question. I am not sure why Porsche makes it so hard to find it. 493 but can't find a PDF file. Download the app "Good to Know." I think that may be what you are looking for. Yeh - its not a bad reference point to have on your phone. Download the app "Good to Know." I think that may be what you are looking for. Seems like this the closest to a pdf file.

2019 Mercedes-Benz GLC [Teaser]




Mercedes-Benz has released a teaser video of the facelifted 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLC prior to the vehicle鈥檚 world debut at the Geneva Motor Show next week. The short video of the tweaked SUV has it wading along a river and beyond the first second, shows virtually nothing of the facelifted GLC. Fortunately, the first second does provide us with a glimpse of the vehicle鈥檚 new fascia. The most obvious difference between the new GLC and the outgoing model are the different headlights, complete with revised LED daytime running lights. In addition, the facelifted Mercedes-Benz GLC adopts a new grille with two horizontal slats rather than the one found on the current GLC. The model featured also has a much more rugged-looking front bumper incorporating a number of bolder silver elements. Mercedes-Benz won鈥檛 mess with the overall shape of the GLC but further tweaks are expected to be found at the rear, including alterations to the taillights which will see the reverse lights positioned under the brake lights. In the cabin, the facelifted Mercedes-Benz GLC will be refreshed and will be outfitted with the automaker鈥檚 excellent MBUX infotainment system. Altered trims alongside other improvements such as a new wireless charging pad for cell phones will be part of the package too. Recent spy shots also revealed a newly designed steering wheel. Mercedes hasn鈥檛 offered any information regarding the powertrains that will be offered with the new GLC. However, we have an inclination that some engines from the facelifted C-Class could find their way into the updated crossover. This could include a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder with 255 hp and 369 Nm of torque.





Storage is acceptable, too. It feels spacious, and allied to the comfort, it means even long journeys in the XC40 aren鈥檛 too much of a chore. Volvo鈥檚 13th place result in our Driver Power 2018 poll edged it ahead of Audi, with its second place in the safety category a particular highlight. That鈥檚 unsurprising given the brand鈥檚 reputation and the fact that the XC40 scored a full five-star Euro NCAP rating. Autonomous braking with pedestrian detection and lane-keep assist are standard, as are seven airbags and oncoming lane mitigation (a system that helps you swerve to avoid oncoming traffic). If you want blind spot warning, cross-traffic alert and autonomous braking for when you鈥檙e in reverse, the IntelliSafe Surround pack costs 拢600. The premium brand is a big draw for second-hand buyers, so after three years/36,000 miles our experts predict the Q3 should be worth 拢16,652, a retained value of 48.8 per cent.





The Volvo should hold on to 52.9 per cent, which means it鈥檒l be worth 拢15,946 after the same period because it鈥檚 cheaper to buy. Our experts rate this spec of CX-5 as retaining 46.5 per cent of its list price, or 拢14,075. That means it鈥檒l depreciate by 拢16,220 over the same period. Testers鈥?notes: 鈥淭he XC40鈥檚 real appeal lies in its individuality. A range refresh last year, with new, higher-spec trim levels and added appeal has pushed the Mazda CX-5 even further upmarket and closer to the likes of Audi鈥檚 new Q3. Mazda is continuing its push upmarket, encroaching on the likes of the Audi鈥檚 territory. That means the Q3 faces pressure from conventional foes, but also from below as more makers want a slice of the premium pie. The CX-5 is still based on Mazda鈥檚 SkyActiv vehicle architecture, which uses lightweight materials in places to keep mass down and boost efficiency and performance without hampering safety. At 1,560kg, it鈥檚 only slightly heavier than the 1,497kg Volvo; the Audi is 2kg lighter again. Mazda鈥檚 chassis set-up is known for producing great results when it comes to agility, though, so the CX-5 should shrug off its extra weight.





It鈥檚 as much about image and equipment as it is about dynamic ability in this class, though, and it鈥檚 here, with its new trim structure, that the CX-5 makes big strides forward. While badge prestige might still not match the Audi, there鈥檚 at least as much standard kit. Parking sensors, a reversing camera and lots of safety features - including autonomous braking, adaptive cruise and LED lights - heated leather seats, keyless operation, a power tailgate and sat-nav are all included. CarPlay and Android Auto are really the only options you might want to consider; they鈥檙e part of a 拢350 pack. Even though the CX-5 costs less than the Audi, the quality of materials is good. It doesn鈥檛 feel quite as upmarket, but then it鈥檚 not quite as expensive. The biggest deficiency compared with its competitors here is the tech, though. A lack of sharp-resolution graphics and a digital dash hasn鈥檛 been a huge issue in the past, but against rivals that boast these qualities as standard, it could make the difference to buyers. The CX-5 still drives as well as ever, even when fitted with the naturally aspirated 2.0-litre four-cylinder non-turbo petrol we鈥檙e testing.

Mercedes-Benz GLE 350D 4Matic




Mercedes-Benz GLE 350D 4Matic - It's essential to keep a receptive outlook when street testing the new Mercedes-Benz GLE 350D Coupe. For some lovers, such autos are the fiend's generate: a high-riding, hurling SUV on stilts putting on a show to be a games auto. Be that as it may, others are pulled in to the take a gander at-me styling and like the option vibe. Positively, BMW has furrowed a financially fruitful wrinkle with its historic X6 - and now Mercedes is heaping in. A snappy recap first. The GLE is the new name for the ML-class, the vast SUV lined up against any semblance of the Audi Q7, BMW X5 and Volvo XC90. It was relaunched this year with another name, however remains basically a midlife facelift instead of an all-new model. Also, this time they've included a roadster subordinate, to spread the reach's allure. This audit is concentrating on the least expensive GLE Coupe, the smash hit diesel-controlled 350d 4Matic. Click here for our first drive of the GLE450 Coupe.





Identification numbers and motor specs surrendered conversing with one another years prior in Stuttgart, so it merits setting up precisely what we're driving here. The 350 moniker covers a 2987cc V6 turbodiesel, assembling 255bhp and 457lb ft at only 1600rpm, driving every one of the four wheels through a nine-velocity programmed gearbox. It may be the starter GLE Coupe, yet its 拢60,680 sticker price unmistakably shows elevated desire. This is a costly range, and our own games the Premium Plus Package, Driving Assistance Package and Entertainment Package blowing up the cost to 拢68,865. Far be it from us to let you know what to make of the Mercedes-Benz GLE 350D 4Matic Coupe's outline. Suffice to say, it is really colossal, extending to 4978mm long and an elevated 1731mm high. Out and about it overshadows most autos this side of a Range Rover in spite of the fact that it doesn't feel excessively massive, making it impossible to hustle along a byway. The lodge feels unusually traded off: it's a blend of old Merc and new, deficient with regards to the super-raving success innovation of the C-class run and selling out its in the middle of, facelift-in addition to status.





The Comand rotating controller and back excitement TV framework demonstrate there's tech in abundance, however tap the amalgam alike strip over the dash and it sounds empty and shoddy. It's a not too bad lodge, however difficult to adore. Doesn't having a squashed roofline harm the space for individuals? Luckily not very seriously. There's heaps of space in advance and - all the more shockingly - a lot of room in the second line for even tall grown-ups, once they've ducked their heads low to slide under the swooping roofline. Whenever introduced, there's a lot of space for adults in the back and it's made of better than average quality materials. With just a shallow transmission burrow, you'll even get three children in the back without an excess of objections. The boot is really incomprehensible at 650 liters, however you'll at last fit more into the normal GLE SUV - and there's an annoyingly high lip to haul your baggage over when pressing for a trek away. Your pooch will must be entirely athletic to bounce in unaided.





Electric operation of the back end is standard and it can be apathetically opened from the key coxcomb. How does the GLE Coupe drive? Any reasonable person would agree the Mercedes conveys its 2250kg kerbweight with some trouble, this SUV feeling substantial of foot and heavy on your most loved A-street. Better to switch the dynamic set-up to Comfort and let the air springs iron out the knocks and irregularities in the street from under the enormous 21-inch composites, the guiding and motor settings unwinding to a smoother stride. Execution is strikingly blunted by that mass, in spite of the fact that Mercedes cites a 7.0sec 0-62mph time. In any case, the V6 diesel is refined and never barges in and the nine-rate auto means it's scarcely woken up as it twists to only 1200rpm at 60mph in top rigging. This sloppy roadster is preferable delighted in as a cruiser over a bruiser; its motion, reactions through corners and general deftness are thumped into a positioned cap by any semblance of a Porsche Cayenne or BMW X6. Do we lament Mercedes producing an affection offspring of two restricting types, all bling and running sheets? We shouldn't, for our streets are all the all the more fascinating for seeing new bodystyles and we need (to some degree begrudgingly) praise the aspiration of widening the GLE's allure. Be that as it may, does the sloppy car steal it away? Not as splendidly as we may have trusted. The 350d is fine, yet that is the thing that my wife says when I've done some sub-standard household tasks. One to store under 'could improve.

Mercedes-Benz A-class-price And Specifications




In the UK, Mercedes-Benz A-class has become a big seller for Mercedes, so this replacement is important. It would be nice - the old man certainly had problems, but this did not stop it. It's a new platform for a long time in more wheelbase than ever, but most changes are fundamental in development. It is strong and light, and an exceptionally 12 cm long. Just a little extra passenger room is enough to show for swelling. Fortunately, there are improvements on the road: Bad rides and raw broadcasts of old cars have been removed. But we will not forgive you for paying attention. The one you can not remember is the dash. Mercedes has established that he called a pilot 'glass cockpit' - a traditional dial at all, just highly configurable screen display. It is called MBUX for the Mercedes-Benz user experience. Because these days everything is an experience. Base cars include connected services, including two 7-inch high-rage screens, ongoing navigation, and detailed live traffic.





Voice activation system, standard across the border also uses these cars (both to be out of both signals) and in-cloud decoding. Engineers urged us "it accepts natural language - ask it something". The results were spotty. Upscale A-Classes, you get a 10.25-inch central screen or a pair of them, the driver's display also gets bigger. It actually produces superb cinemas. At launch, a 200, which is 2.0 liters, but a 1.3-liter turbo, which closes the two cylinders at light throttle. Then in the A250, an actual 2.0-liter engine is all new and unrelated to 1.3. The only diesel is A 180, which is heavily modified on the old. There is no manual gearbox - all get seven-speed DCT standard, so keep in mind when you see prices. They help in cutting new engines, as well as lightweight, consumption. So pull a remarkably short. In fact, CDA (drag coefficient time cross-sectional area) is less than a man on racing pushbacks. Drag-removing measures include expanded size at the back end, and alloy wheels with smooth blank areas of black that almost close the spokesman. In fact, the expansion was more obsessive than that: A problem was sent to the tire makers that the lettering on their side could not be more than 0.2 mm. All models begin to offer active transaction support, collision warning, and autonomous emergency brakes. Nothing simple there. Later in 2018, another advanced driver support package will be available, which includes blind-spot warnings, active cruise control, and lane-focused steering support. Even so, its imagination is not much more than the one available at the same time.





Is the Porsche Macan a Good SUV? The Porsche Macan is a great luxury compact SUV. It has an upscale, high-tech cabin and supremely comfortable front seats. It truly excels on the road, where its dynamic handling makes it a joy to drive. It also has a class-leading predicted reliability rating. However, cargo space and rear-seat legroom are both subpar for the class. As of this writing, Porsche has not released information on the Macan Turbo or GTS models. Should I Buy the Porsche Macan? The Macan is a fantastic choice in the class, but it鈥檚 expensive. A few rivals, such as the Jaguar F-Pace and BMW X3, have similar athleticism at a lower price. Both have more cargo space too. The X3 does not come standard with all-wheel drive, though it does offer it as an option. Should I Buy a New or Used Porsche Macan? The 2019 Macan belongs to a generation that debuted for the 2015 model year. For 2016, Porsche added an optional surround-view parking camera and two new trims: a base model with a turbo-four engine, and the GTS model with a twin-turbo V6.





A rearview camera, lane departure warning, and front and rear parking sensors became standard too. The Macan received a refresh for the 2019 model year. As of this writing, complete information has not been released, but the new Macan gets a few more standard features, including a 10.9-inch touch screen, a navigation system, and a Wi-Fi hot spot. If the new standard tech features aren鈥檛 important to you, consider a used model. To learn more about these used models, read our reviews of the 2016, 2017, and 2018 Porsche Macan. If you decide an older model is right for you, check out our Used Car Deals page to learn about savings and discounts on used vehicles. By researching Porsche Macan reviews, our hope is to provide you with the information you need to make car shopping a breeze. You'll find everything you need to know about this sedan in our comprehensive review.





It combines concrete data (like fuel economy estimates, safety scores, and cargo dimensions) with professional evaluations from 36 Porsche Macan reviews.

Mercedes-Benz Sprinter LM-EXTV




The Mercedes-Benz Sprinter has been Lexanized and turned into the ultimate off-road camper van, which isn鈥檛 afraid of getting some mud on that reworked exterior. Baptized the LM-EXTV, where LM stands for 鈥楲exani Motors鈥?and EXTV for 鈥楨xtreme Terrain Vehicle鈥? it offers buyers many options, both on the outside and the cabin, along with other upgrades. Lexani allows customers to choose from several exterior finishes, which can be combined with a camouflage wrap at no extra cost. Highlighting its go-anywhere look are the redesigned bumpers, a bulbar, LED light bar at the front, more LEDs incorporated in the roof rack that鈥檚 accessible via a ladder mounted at the back, and 20-inch rims shod in chunky off-road tires. The sky is pretty much the limit when it comes to customizing the interior, which is not only comfortable, but versatile, too. The new LM-EXTV can be fitted with an Apple TV, Alpine DVD player, Wi-Fi connectivity, over-head air distribution thanks to the heavy-duty AC, three 110V and 12V sockets, mini-fridge, cabinets, beds, individual rear seats and more.





The optional Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) system, left in its softest setting, proved enough to keep the wheels from impacting harshly over even the roughest sections. After fielding countless questions about body rigidity, Porsche's engineers confided that the Targa is about 10 percent stiffer than the Cabriolet model upon which it is based (the Coupe is reportedly twice as rigid as the Cabriolet). Officials also say that the rigidity is the same with or without the Targa panel in place - it's not a structural part of the chassis, which improves suspension tuning. It seems no orientation with an open-roof car is complete unless Mother Nature is allowed to test its weatherproofing. As huge raindrops fell from the clouds, a quick detour to the side of the road had the Targa's roof secured back in place and the coupe sealed tight from the elements. Back at speed, the cabin was hushed.





My recollection is that the Coupe is still quieter (albeit with more tire noise), but the Targa's cabin levels are on par with the Cabriolet, which is itself impressive for a softtop convertible. Porsche says the 911 Targa will roll into showrooms at the end of June, and a full day with the new model leads me to believe customers won't be hard to find. While it lacks the single-minded sportiness of the enthusiast's-choice Coupe, the Targa is fresh and distinctive on the road. Its uniqueness, fascinating roof-mechanism kinematics and all-weather capability are sure to appeal to its affluent clientele seeking an open-roof solution. Don't be surprised if it's a success. If there's one thing I've learned over the years, it's that Stuttgart doesn't do anything half-baked - all of its products, from its entry-level Boxster to its flagship hybrid 918 Spyder, represent no-compromise engineering. That's true even when a model's usage case and audience is decidedly narrower. That's certainly the situation with this 2014 911 Targa 4, a car that stands as a meticulous modern interpretation of a celebrated model from Porsche's past.





First, you may have noticed a trend over the last few weekends where a lot of normally-removed posts make it to the main thread. That's because the mod team has been experimenting with a concept we affectionately call "Shitpost Sunday" where we all agree to relax our enforcement of posting rules on Sundays. Our intentions are two-fold: (1) increase the content inflow on the slowest day of the week and (2) give us a healthy outlet to enjoy the guilty pleasures of low content posts. If you see your post flaired as a Shitpost, it doesn't mean we're making fun of it or anything. It's just a signal to the community that we are not removing a post that we normally would remove. NOTE: we're only relaxing content control rules, so the other stuff (personal attacks, trolling, toxicity) will be enforced like normal. As the mods wake up on Monday morning, we'll go back to enforcing content quality control rules until the next Sunday rolls around. Second, the mod team is interested in setting up new guidelines for autopilot anomaly posts. We ask that if you experience an autopilot anomaly (phantom braking, lane departures, dangerous lane changes/mergers, etc), you share the video of the event rather than just describe it. The goal here is to use leverage our collective attention more effectively, to help learn WHY the incident occurred. If you only share your description of the event and not the video, that's hard to do. So we ask that you leverage your Tesla's built-in features and share the video!

New Mercedes-Benz A-Class Sedan




The all-new Mercedes-Benz A-Class Sedan is almost ready, and we expect to see it at an auto show in the coming months. Following its public debut, the brand鈥檚 rival to the BMW 1-Series Sedan and Audi A3 Sedan will arrive at dealers in select markets in August and it will be followed in 2019 by the sleeker CLA. The 2019 Mercedes-Benz A-Class Sedan will be available with a multitude engines, just like its hatchback sibling, and other derivatives. The list is said to include several 1.2-liter and 1.4-liter petrol units, along with the Renault-Daimler-developed 1.3-liter mill. As for the oil burners, while the five-door A-Class will likely use the 1.5-liter dCi diesel made by Renault, the Sedan is said to get only 2.0-liter four-cylinder units. The powertrain family might include a 48V PHEV model as well, pairing a 1.4-liter engine with a nine-speed automatic gearbox and offering a zero-emission range of 50 km. Mercedes-AMG will, at at some point, launch an AMG A45 Sedan variant that will challenge the likes of the four-door Audi RS3, using the same 2.0-liter turbo four of the next-gen A45 hot hatch.





As such, it's a rival for the Ford Explorer and the Toyota 4Runner as well as some Euro utes like the BMW X5 and the Mercedes-Benz M-Class. The Grand Cherokee is one of the vehicles that spawned the SUV gold rush in the 1990s. It and the Ford Explorer drew a generation of drivers out of sedans and into big, tall wagons, for better and for worse. It's still one of the best sellers today, and though a handful of other SUVs combine toughness and luxury ambiance, almost none of them do it at the Grand Cherokee's price point. Back then, and still today, the Jeep Grand Cherokee is a very off-road-capable luxury sport-utility vehicle, offering rather chunky, rugged styling, along with enough family-friendly practicality inside. The first-generation Grand Cherokee (called ZJ by the company and off-road enthusiasts) wasn't an exceptional on-road performer by any measure, but they moved just fine with the long-running and torquey 4.0-liter in-line six-cylinder engine (of AMC origins).





The 5.2-liter or 5.9-liter V-8 engines were definitely the choice for those who towed, and the larger 5.9 Limited felt like an all-out muscle truck. During some of this time, the most luxurious versions of the Grand Cherokee were badged Grand Wagoneer, and included a specially trimmed, leather-lined cabin and a wood-paneled-look exterior. The second-generation (WJ) Grand Cherokee arrived with a rounded version of the original's styling that was still distinctive and recognizable. The interior trimmings were more luxurious, and mechanical updates included a new five-speed automatic transmission and a hydraulically actuated Quadra-Drive four-wheel-drive system; rear-wheel drive and a more basic four-wheel-drive system remained on offer as well. The engine menu stayed put, although eight-cylinder models saw increased output. The Grand Cherokee was again substantially redesigned for 2005. This time, Jeep threw out the old in-line six, replacing it with an also-dated 3.7-liter V-6, but all-new 5.7-liter and 6.1-liter HEMI V-8 engines joined the range.





For a short time, Jeep also offered a 3.0 CRD turbo-diesel version of the third-gen Grand Cherokee; it performed well and was quite fuel-efficient, but emissions regulations and slow sales forced an early demise. In all of its existence through the '90s and '00s, the Grand Cherokee was lacking several things that were increasingly required by suburban families: More precise, carlike handling; a better on-road ride; and top-notch safety. Thanks to the earlier DaimlerChrysler tie-up, the new Grand Cherokee shares a basic architecture with the Mercedes M- and GL-Class SUVs. It's more sophisticated as a result, with smoother on-road dynamics, an available air suspension, and great steering, while still retaining the off-road chops that made the Grand Cherokee what it is up until then. Although Daimler and Chrysler are no longer an item, this prime example of their shared expertise will continue on anyway. This car was as extreme as you wanted it to be鈥攚ith the top Quadra Drive system sophisticated enough for either negotiating slippery rocks and mud or mindfully gripping with the right wheel in your snow-drift-buried driveway.





And even better, Jeep has also introduced a Range Rover-like Selec-Terrain system that simplifies getting through the tough stuff, with an Auto mode plus separate ones for sand/mud, snow, and rock. With its modern and more refined 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6, in addition to returning HEMI V-8s, the new Grand Cherokee is also a bit more fuel efficient in its base form. Jeep showed that it could appeal to go-fast on-road enthusiasts, too. The performance model packed a 420-hp, 6.1-liter HEMI, a sport-tuned suspension, and a host of upgrades, and this model could not only do modest off-roading but also get to Autobahn speeds and reach 60 mph in well under five seconds. The SRT8 returned for 2012, with a 465-hp, 6.4-liter HEMI fitted to the much-improved, new-generation Grand Cherokee. It's now simply known as the Grand Cherokee SRT. The Grand Cherokee has always been ahead of its time with respect to features. Back in its first-gen version the Grand Cherokee offered features like steering-wheel audio controls, plush leather upholstery, heated seats, and keyless entry.

Sweet W116: We Take A Spin In The First-Gen Mercedes-Benz S-class




On the occasion of our first drive of the revised 2018 Mercedes-Benz S-class, we also were afforded the opportunity to drive an example of the first Mercedes to use that model designation, a W116 version, and the contrast was marked. The S350 indicates a 3.5-liter engine in this example, this being from the days when the model designation still related to engine displacement. Under the hood was a V-8, smooth-running although with a rather lazy idle鈥攊t spun so slowly that it seemed almost on the verge of stalling, yet it never did. When stirred, however, the engine could get this stately sedan up and moving. The three-pointed star at the end of the hood would rise in response to a determined prod of the accelerator. Body roll is generous, but even after nearly four decades, the big Benz exudes a hewn-from-metal solidity that many of its contemporaries lacked. We would have driven it happily all the way to Bonn, perhaps to take a meeting with German chancellor Helmut Schmidt鈥攚ere he still around. The sensation of driving鈥攐r even that of being in a moving vehicle鈥攊s so much greater here than it is in today鈥檚 car. The latest S-class, its vast, pillowy cabin suffused with computer screens and colorful mood lighting, is nearly capable of driving itself. It feels as if the model is taking another historic turn, one in which autonomy and isolation rise to the forefront. The W116 S-class was all about making the best-driving luxury car; the new S-class seeks to be the best possible luxury conveyance for an era in which driving is perceived more as a chore than a joy.

Last week, I was involved in some interesting conversations on issues that slows organizations down and the role leadership play in leading to or resolving of these issues. One such teething issue was how to get employees/new leaders understand the meaning of cultural fitment and further to avoid people/culture misfit cases early in their lifetime at the company. Not an easy problem to define, let alone attempt to solve it. We did try and delve into root causes and solutions to avoid these situations from happening. One root cause that emerged prominently was that employees or leaders themselves don't get enough feedback timely. Feedback mechanisms mostly are under-leveraged in most of the organizations. One could argue that for the feedback mechanisms to work, there really are 2 players. One is the feedback seeker, other is the one who provides the feedback. This division just about, sounds right. But if we broaden our view for a moment, there's another crucial consideration.





In addition to these 2 players there's also an invisible element called as intent. Simply put, if the intent to provide feedback or to receive feedback is missing then the feedback mechanisms won't serve the intended purpose. Feedback without intent really is like human being without a heart or a life without purpose. Without appropriate intent, feedback mechanisms are reduced to check list items. One may get the task done but still be far from reaching the outcome. If intent is so important, then who is responsible for ensuring that it's presence in the organization culture. It has to be the leader of the organization. I was recently reading this book 'Trillion Dollar Coach'. I was fascinated by the story of how Eric Schmidt (former Google CEO) conducted his staff meetings in the presence of his coach, Bill Campbell. 1.

Mercedes-Benz E400d All-Terrain




The Mercedes-Benz E-Class All-Terrain will celebrate its second anniversary in September. However, the high-riding executive estate is still not available with a powerful diesel engine. But that鈥檚 about to change, according to MercedesBenzPassionBlog, as the three-pointed star鈥檚 Audi A6 Allroad and Volvo V90 Cross Country challenger will welcome a new powertrain in Q3. The twin-turbo 2.9-liter inline-six is entirely new, and already powers the E400d, S400d and new CLS 400d. It delivers an identical output of 340 PS and 700 Nm of torque in all three cars. This should be a welcomed departure from the current 194 PS 2.0-liter four-cylinder mill used in the E220d, or the E350d, with its 3.0-liter V6 that generates 258 PS. Both models have a standard dual-clutch nine-speed automatic gearbox, which will be the sole transmission offered in the E400d (name unconfirmed), too, according to an initial announcement made by the automaker. Just like the rest of the high-riding E-Class lineup, the new E400d will keep its rugged design with generous plastic cladding and a jacked-up suspension. The latter allows it to sit 39 mm higher than the standard Estate, and provides it with a ground clearance of up to 156 mm. The most extreme version of the Mercedes-Benz E-Class All-Terrain adds the 4脳4虏 suffix, and was created by a company engineer.





The XC90 T8 plug-in hybrid offers buyers an alternative fuel choice in their luxury seven-seat SUV, and at 拢71,945 in Inscription Pro trim, it鈥檚 a match for its diesel-engined rivals in this test. Our pictures show a D5 model, but it鈥檚 a T8 we鈥檙e testing. Volvo has made a commitment to putting a million electrified cars on the road by 2025, and it鈥檚 models like the XC90 T8 that will make that possible. It鈥檚 a hybrid that you can plug in at home or at work to keep the battery topped up, avoiding heavy use of the engine. The T8 Twin Engine uses a supercharged and turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol unit with an electric motor and an eight-speed auto box. The electric motor drives the rear axle, so the XC90 does have some off-roading potential with its 4x4 layout, but this isn鈥檛 the road-biased SUV鈥檚 main focus. Adaptive dampers and air suspension are fitted as standard in Inscription Pro trim as part of Volvo鈥檚 Four-C active chassis set-up, matching its rivals. It differs in this group test thanks to its hi-tech powertrain, but also because it鈥檚 a little smaller than its competitors when it comes to footprint and interior space.





Due to its high-quality interior, however, it feels just as upmarket as it ought to at this price. It uses a neat, clean design with a large portrait touchscreen and plush materials. The Volvo isn鈥檛 quite as luxurious as the BMW or Land Rover, although our top-spec Inscription Pro model is very well equipped. It comes with 21-inch alloy wheels, heated leather seats, four-zone climate control, a nine-inch touchscreen infotainment set-up with sat-nav, and a digital instrument cluster. A core part of the XC90 T8鈥檚 driving experience is the electric motor. It has 86bhp, which complements the petrol engine鈥檚 299bhp output, especially at low revs. As the engine is building speed and getting into its power band, the electric motor fills in with its instant torque (240Nm of it), so the XC90 is really quick off the line. We recorded a time of just 5.7 seconds from 0-60mph, which was more than a second faster than either of its rivals here, despite them having larger engines. The electric motor also allows for near-silent running at low speed, so driving around town is very relaxed in the XC90, not to mention efficient.





However, once the 2.0-litre petrol engine fires up the Volvo鈥檚 refinement is eroded compared with the Land Rover and BMW. Despite being slightly smaller than its rivals here, the Volvo is competitive when it comes to boot space. It has 262 litres available with all the seats up, which is more than in the Discovery (258 litres) but less than the X7 (326 litres). Fold the third row and it also has a bit more capacity than the BMW, at 967 litres. So while the XC90 is practical enough, it can鈥檛 match the Disco. However, the Volvo has the least total boot space and, perhaps more importantly, the rearmost seats are pretty small and won鈥檛 be of much use for adults. That鈥檚 unlike either of its rivals, which have loads of room in every seat. At least the Swedish car鈥檚 second row has plenty of leg and headroom, though. Volvo put in a decent showing in our Driver Power 2019 customer satisfaction poll, finishing 13th in the manufacturers鈥?standings.





The Swedish firm set a target of zero deaths in any of its cars by 2020, so there鈥檚 lots of safety kit. The XC90 gets autonomous emergency braking, lane-keep assist, run-off-road mitigation and traffic sign recognition. It even managed a 100 per cent rating in the Safety assist category in its Euro NCAP test. If you are looking for a company car, the XC90 is a clear winner. Low CO2 emissions of 55g/km put it in the 16 per cent Benefit-in-Kind (BiK) category, resulting in a tax bill of just 拢5,462 for higher-rate earners. Both of the other models sit in the 37 per cent range due to their large diesel engines, so the X7 and Discovery will cost 拢10,857 and 拢10,196 respectively in tax. That huge difference shows how much you can save by running a plug-in hybrid as a company car, but as a percentage of its value, it鈥檚 perhaps less important than luxury or practicality for buyers of these SUVs. The Discovery badge means a lot to buyers of luxury SUVs, and there鈥檚 a good reason why.
