Mercedes-Benz E550 Is The Closest Thing To Autonomous

Cruising down the freeway in the 2014 Mercedes-Benz E550 Cabriolet, I took the opportunity to contemplate the meaning of luxury. The car afforded me plenty of time to ponder, as its adaptive cruise control handled the pedal work and its steering-assist system helped maintain its position in the lane. Looking at the design and materials surrounding me in the cabin, I noted the significant use of real metal for the vents, buttons, and even some of the speaker grilles. A bright little analog clock sat in the center of the stack, a cue that spoke of tradition. Further evoking tradition was this car's cloth top, a stand against the retractable hard tops that have taken over the industry in recent years. However, there was technology in this Mercedes-Benz, too. The brilliance of Mercedes-Benz comes in its ability to meld old and new. If you set an LCD TV down next to a Tiffany lamp on an English Oak sideboard, it's going to look haphazard. In the E550 Cabriolet, Mercedes-Benz much more thoughtfully integrated the 7-inch LCD into the dashboard, setting it into a nice frame so that its placement appears natural. Likewise, soft-touch plastics cover the top of the dashboard and doors, a nice-feeling material that doesn't detract from the luxury feel of the car.

The rear-drive E550 coupe and convertible carry a twin-turbocharged 4.7-liter V8 that's good for 402 horsepower and 443 pound-feet of torque. That's makes the E550 second only to the specially tuned AMG E-Class models in terms of performance. Power flows through a seven-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters. You might expect a hardtop on the convertible, but the E550 carries a traditional fabric top, albeit one with three layers for maximum insulation from noise and weather. The benefit is a trunk that doesn't disappear when the top comes down. The E550 comes standard with a sports steering wheel, perforated front disc brakes with painted calipers, 18-inch AMG wheels and leather upholstery. Premium: Includes a rearview camera, hard-drive navigation and audio storage, a 14-speaker Harman Kardon surround-sound system, massaging climate-controlled front seats, a power rear sunshade (coupe) and the AirScarf neck-warming system (convertible). Sport: Tacks on multicontour front seats and aluminum pedal trim. Lighting: Adds full LED headlamps with curve illumination and automatic high-beam control. Parking Assist: Equips the E550 with a surround-view camera system, front and rear parking sensors, and an automated parallel parking system. Keyless Go: Gets you keyless access and ignition, plus a power trunk lid with hands-free opening and closing. Lane Tracking: Adds blind spot monitoring and lane keeping assist. Driver Assistance: In addition to the above, you get adaptive cruise control with steering assist, cross-traffic alert and pedestrian detection with automatic braking.
