Recently, Mercedes-Benz announced that it has become the first international car company to be approved to conduct autonomous driving tests in both L4 cities and high-speed highways in Beijing.

, According to him, its L4 test vehicle can independently complete most scenario driving tasks without the need for a driver to take over.
the test vehicle is equipped with rich sensors and redundant systems to further improve safety.
in busy Urban area sections, actions such as parking in and out of the parking space, turning around, driving into and out of the roundabout, and turning left without protection.
on high-speed sections, actions such as automatic lane change and automatic passage through toll stations can be realized.
In extreme cases, implement a minimum-risk strategy and find a safe place to park on your own.
It is reported that Mercedes-Benz started exploring autonomous driving as early as 1986, and was the first to realize the commercialization of L3 autonomous driving in Europe and the United States.
In addition, before being approved to carry out autonomous driving tests in L4 cities and high-speed highways in Beijing, relevant departments in Beijing City issued the “Detailed Rules for the Management of Road Test of Vehicles with Conditional Autonomous Driving Functions in the Beijing City Connected Vehicle Policy Pilot Zone (Trial)” in December last year.
Mercedes-Benz became one of the first companies to be granted a road test license for conditional autonomous driving (L3) highways in Beijing City.
