Huh, how does that go together? Aren't you supposed to go at least 80 or something on an autobahn?
Minimum speed for vehicles to be allowed on the autobahn is 60. This is an autonomous traffic jam assistant – you can sleep during traffic jams now.
AFAIK it's intended for stop and go traffic jam situations, also Autobahn is at least 60km/h.
Your vehicle needs to be capable of 60km/h to legally drive on the Autobahn, if you don't want everyone to hate you 80km/h as that's the speed limit for trucks.
The Mercedes thing is a traffic jam assistant, if you don't take over when traffic speeds up again it's going to pull over or something.
