Thanks so much for asking. The TFLcar team is fine but our hearts go out to the family and friends of all of the victims of the horrific shooting in Aurora.
Everything drivers do in traffic comes with daily experience. Like I said, theres difference between being able to parallel park and being able to parallel park between bentley and ferrari on street wheres heavy traffic. No-one is expert fresh out of school. Only problem is that if using aid like that you never learn.
LOL you definately hear that the mother tongue of the passenger/instructor was German (as I am German-speaking myself) but whatever, I really enjoy watching your car reviews.
In real life people don't get to parallel park too often - that means they don't feel confident. Doing the thing in driving school with loads of time, without the risk of damaging other cars and probably without other drivers waiting and tooting behind you is completely different thing to real life.
Whoever suggest that this is a "copy" from other manufacturers, I don't believe so. Mercedes didn't copy, they just decided to try out the technology and to attempt to make it better.
Infiniti QX56 and Range Rover also have the 360 degree camera (called around view monitor in Infiniti). As for self-parking technology, Citroen already had it in back 2005 :D. In C3 - their cheapest model... So there's nothing to be so excited about, as it is nothing new :)
You have to use the accelerator and the brake?? I thought it was going to do all of it on it's own?? What happens if you don't brake?? Will it crash?? Or just too many questions??
This will be handy in Philadelphia. especially when you are arguing with your significant other and not really focused on parking when you arrive in-front your house.
The day will come that it's an OPTION to DRIVE THE CAR YOURSELF. Me?! I'm looking forward to my car driving me so,i can relax and arrive well rested. And I can take over on the fun roads to drive on.
Combine that with google streetview and Subaru Eyesight where they use cameras to see the roa, and I can see these boxes becoming completely autonomous like in Scifi movies.
What did MB copy Infiniti? The rear looks close to a QX56. Also the QX had a 360 degree camera. I don't really need a MB badge, a jeep GC would be good enough for a ml for me. Good video
This is impressive it's true, But it doesn't compare to Audi's A7 self parking as in get out of the car and it drives itself into a a huge garage scanning the area and finds a parking place. then you just call it and i comes and picks you up. Great Technology For both cars.
+Ivan Robert you must be in the car to perform active park assist. if you want to park a car automatically outside a vehicle check out the 2016 BMW 7 series.
I think the park assit is a neat thing. However I can parallel park my 97 blazer faster than that... Just take skills and practice. And when I took drivers ed in school our driver taught us how.
I wonder where we will end up when we hack away at driving skill, and replace alot of it will gadgets? I drive for the love, feel, and passion..... not the technology, entertainment and connectivity. Keep up the good work reviewing mercs to subaru's.
That is fine where there is no traffic but WAYYY to slow for urban Parking, imagine doing that in Lower Manhattan, people might let you space to back into a spot if your lucky but dont think they'il give you a minute to park it
Although I love technology we're obviously pretty close to self driving cars now which is great for those who can't drive. Personally I feel if you cant park a car yourself you ready shouldn't be driving. It reminds me of the scene in Wall-E where in the future we're all fat blobs who cant do anything for themselves.
Funny you say that, considering that Toyota invented this somewhat in 2001-02, later appearing on the 2nd generation Prius in 2003 and Lexus LS in 2006. Don't be a hypocrite.
park assist copied from the skoda manufactuer :) theyr the first that implementet on the Skoda superb and yeti, then WV on the golf 6,passat. now mercedes.
+Jason Hunter When a car can park itself, and a car can drive itself, then what you have is an automated taxi. Read a book. Check your email. Your car will take you there.

Soccer moms across the US will appreciate this immensely!!!!!

That parking space was HUGE.... You're lucky to find a space that big in New York City
WRX Owner
Mercedes are always ten years ahead of the competition
Now that's a neat feature :)
Whoever suggest that this is a "copy" from other manufacturers, I don't believe so. Mercedes didn't copy, they just decided to try out the technology and to attempt to make it better.
Roman, it's gotta be a rough year for you guys in CO; first the wildfires and the events you've witnessed in Aurora.
excellent reviews as always!
I use this feature in the ML 350 every time now... works very well
Infiniti QX56 and Range Rover also have the 360 degree camera (called around view monitor in Infiniti). As for self-parking technology, Citroen already had it in back 2005 :D. In C3 - their cheapest model... So there's nothing to be so excited about, as it is nothing new :)
You nailed it, Skynet is google ROFL makes 100% sense
THE BEST SUV OUT THERE MERCEDES BENZ GL CLASS
You have to use the accelerator and the brake?? I thought it was going to do all of it on it's own?? What happens if you don't brake?? Will it crash?? Or just too many questions??
This will be handy in Philadelphia. especially when you are arguing with your significant other and not really focused on parking when you arrive in-front your house.
If u have seen how big that care is im pretty sure u will be thankfull for it to park automatic
The day will come that it's an OPTION to DRIVE THE CAR YOURSELF. Me?! I'm looking forward to my car driving me so,i can relax and arrive well rested. And I can take over on the fun roads to drive on.
I have ml350 2013, but it does not have the 360 camera. Does this feature comes only when you have the 360 camera?
Combine that with google streetview and Subaru Eyesight where they use cameras to see the roa, and I can see these boxes becoming completely autonomous like in Scifi movies.
Is this near Breckenridge, Colorado? Looks a lot like a hotel I stayed at last week!
What did MB copy Infiniti? The rear looks close to a QX56. Also the QX had a 360 degree camera. I don't really need a MB badge, a jeep GC would be good enough for a ml for me. Good video
how are you guys holding up in Colorado since the shooting at the theater.

Great Technology For both cars.
Love Mercedes, but is this vehicle just now getting that feature?
The question is: can that car do only side parking or it is also able to park itself into a narrow garage with the driver off the car?
+Ivan Robert you must be in the car to perform active park assist. if you want to park a car automatically outside a vehicle check out the 2016 BMW 7 series.
+Brian Westfield and soon to be coming on the 2017 Merc E class
the first park asist was on Vw Touran
I think the park assit is a neat thing. However I can parallel park my 97 blazer faster than that... Just take skills and practice. And when I took drivers ed in school our driver taught us how.
This thing just turns! Everything else you do anyway!
And can park very fast if you give it ⛽ unlike bmw
I wonder where we will end up when we hack away at driving skill, and replace alot of it will gadgets?
I drive for the love, feel, and passion..... not the technology, entertainment and connectivity.
Keep up the good work reviewing mercs to subaru's.
how much does the option cost just for fun compare to fords version
They need this in all SUV drivers since the majority of them cannot drive.
Is this better than fords park assist? or they about the same?
This car sits too low for my taste. Is that the normal stance? Or is it in some kind of airsuspension-sport mode?
Kia had this long time ago top gear even reviewed it on the cee'd
+Saffi Ali who cares! the people watching a video on a Mercedes Benz do not care about a kia LOL.
My god I am surprised a Kia even got power windows.
It's not even a point of being lazy. It's an extra convenience feature.
It's not made for people that can't park. It's made to make your life easier. If the technology is there, why not utilize it?
*Two 2013 Mercedes-benz M-Class. It's confusing because of the similar design..
True but hell that is one option I would get.
it is already self-aware ahhhhh
How come mine doesn't do this
That is fine where there is no traffic but WAYYY to slow for urban Parking, imagine doing that in Lower Manhattan, people might let you space to back into a spot if your lucky but dont think they'il give you a minute to park it
Roman, how do u use shifter?
Why did you put someone on drivers seat who has no idea about this matter 🙄
what is skynet google?
Wow
there is nothing a mercedes doesn't have, like seriously it can park ITSELF
The Volkswagen started it first lol it's just taking ideas and engineering it better
+flashdash who cares! the people watching a video on a Mercedes Benz do not care about a VW LOL.
Volkswagen most certainly did not. That would be either Toyota or BMW.
That's about as accurate as saying "Android or Apple's time is gone."
this is perfect after you come out of a bar wasted
You dont need this just the camera
Wow! unbelieverable
I'm gonna show my mother this
My Dad have it in his BMW 5-series from 2005
Mercedes your time is gone
No he didn't, you're a liar. It was solely a prototype system then, unless he stole it from BMW...
Although I love technology we're obviously pretty close to self driving cars now which is great for those who can't drive. Personally I feel if you cant park a car yourself you ready shouldn't be driving. It reminds me of the scene in Wall-E where in the future we're all fat blobs who cant do anything for themselves.
das ist aber eine trugen-wagen self parking system :)
how is the Lexus one better... its takes too much time to set up and doesn't pull out of the spot by itself
The Best or Nothing
thats so cool :D but I can still park like boss :P
A 2003 Toyota does that
I used it once,quiet good,however once my gl63reversed into my c43 with autopark
i know how to park i from pakistan we used to park our cars on the top of the house
Its just for lazy people... But its fun to be lazy... Its not that it drifts for you... It just does the boring part!!!!
2 2013 ML's not GL's
Amazing, they made the GL more bland and ugly. I miss real shifters.
Didn't Lexus start this like 10 years ago?
this feature is perfect for people too stupid to know how to drive.... perfect for mercedes-benz owners
Even a ford focus can do that so not that impressing for 2014 technology
that is how we become zombies.we let the machines think for us, and do things for us :))
The time it took to work out what to do, you could have parked the thing yourself. Pull this, press that... waste of time.
wow
Have same car it's
If you cant park a Car.. why are you driving one ?
Funny you say that, considering that Toyota invented this somewhat in 2001-02, later appearing on the 2nd generation Prius in 2003 and Lexus LS in 2006. Don't be a hypocrite.
my next ting
park assist copied from the skoda manufactuer :) theyr the first that implementet on the Skoda superb and yeti, then WV on the golf 6,passat. now mercedes.
Shit, who needs that, it takes to much time
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
A kia can do that :/ i have 2 benzes but still should be better
Wow nice thanks |~|
a damn bus could fit in that spot; not exactly what you need parking assist for

that sistem had lexus ls in 2006
secondd
Ceci est principalement pour les femmes
The Lexus one is better
?v=-hChCinYfzg is all I got to say about this!
You made 1 mistake but minor, ill let you fiver it out, if you wanna know message me
First view first comment.
Lexus Ls460 Pioneer of self parking technology nothing new here..
Syeikh Husain Al-Banjari yeah it barely fucking worked as demonstrated by top gear
Act like youre so high tech mercedes, go ahead. Fords do the same thing for way less money XD lolololol
useless feature. I guess autonomous vehicles come next, I'll take mass transit when that happens.
