DISTRONIC PLUS® is an adaptive cruise control technology from Mercedes-Benz. The feature uses built-in radar to bring you up to speed, brake as necessary, and maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you. Compared to a standard cruise control system, DISTRONIC® technology allows for a smoother, simpler touring experience on the highways near Mclean. Today, DISTRONIC PLUS® is available on a wide range of new models including the Mercedes-Benz CLA 250 and the Mercedes-Benz GLA SUV. Ready to learn more about how DISTRONIC PLUS® works?
