The all-new 2017 Mercedes-Benz E300 is available with a feature called Drive Pilot, which should not be confused with Tesla’s Autopilot, even though they do pretty much the same things. If there are relatively clear lane markers to keep a camera eye on, Drive Pilot locks the car in the middle of them. Mercedes would prefer that you treat Drive Pilot as a safety net, rather than a chauffeur. So, while Drive Pilot is impressively effective, it’s not flawless, and you’re still very much on the hook. The package Drive Pilot comes bundled in adds $11,250 to the E300’s $53,075 base price, but it also includes a few distracting luxuries that might make the extra layer of safety worth it.
