5 has better tech?
5 series has cross traffic assist with only a WARNING (according to their ad on youtube)
E-class has cross traffic assist with AUTOBRAKE
5 series has remote control parking, but only forwards and backwards
E-class has remote control PARALLEL parking
BMW Autopilot is only 15 seconds (if the time is the same as in 7 series)
In Mercedes E-class, the autopilot can drive for 60 SECONDS
And those are not even the only examples. It really seems like the 5 series brings nothing new to the table at all.
Remote view and gesture control? Who gives a shit. Mercedes E-class has true innovations like PRE-SAFE SOUND and PRE-SAFE IMPULSE (i know they are pretty minor, but still innovations)
My next car could be the G30, but i'm very disappointed. The interior looks like the current 3-series. It's horrible. From the outside it looks like a facelift, but still ok.
The key is ridiculously huge. But with the E-class, you can open the doors and start the engine with your Smartphone. And you remote park with your phone as well. No need for a key the size of child's fist.
Please give some examples where the 5 series delivers better technology?
