I've been driving this car for almost two years and discovered several quite practical hidden features. Holding the lock button on the remote key for three seconds automatically rolls up the windows and closes the sunroof, which is especially convenient for cooling down the car in summer. In the central control screen, you can set the rearview mirrors to automatically tilt down when reversing, making it super clear to see the curb. If you're driving on the highway, enabling traffic sign recognition in the vehicle settings will display speed limit signs on the dashboard. There's also the automatic rain-sensing wipers, so you don't have to constantly adjust the wiper settings while driving in the rain on the highway. The most fun feature is the ambient lighting syncing with the air conditioning temperature—after turning on the AC, the cabin lighting gradually changes from blue to red.
From a technical perspective, this car's hidden features mainly lie in software logic. The key proximity auto-unlock is activated on the third page of the settings menu, which can also synchronize with seat memory positions. The voice assistant can recognize continuous commands - it will execute both 'open sunroof' and 'adjust AC to 23 degrees' instructions. Swipe in the quick controls to bring up AMG instrument cluster mode, where the tachometer responds more sensitively. Steering wheel heating requires pressing both volume key and star key simultaneously for 5 seconds to activate - particularly useful for northern winters. The personalized driving mode settings can lock the start-stop status, saving you from pressing the ECO button every ignition.
There are many hidden settings for safety. Enable the Pre-Safe System Plus in the driver assistance menu, which automatically tightens seat belts when detecting emergency situations. The Active Blind Spot Assist offers two additional warning levels in the settings, providing more confidence during narrow road encounters. The parking radar can display a simulated parking view, making obstacle positioning more intuitive. The child lock has been upgraded to electronic control, operable via the central touchscreen, which is more convenient than traditional mechanical locks. The automatic defogging function is turned off by default; press the defog button + recirculation button to activate it when the windshield fogs up.
