The Mercedes B-Class features als a radar that detects the risk of a collision, and quickly activates the brake assist, so when the driver presses the brake pedal the braking will be as effective as possible. The Mercedes B-Class, which will be in dealerships in November, may count on the PRE-SAFE system.
