Distronic Pro Retrofit for the Facelift A Class 2020 onwards that has the newest steering wheel type.

DISTRONIC Pro 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.

How Do I Use DISTRONIC Pro?

The DISTRONIC PLUS® adaptive cruise control system isn’t that much more complicated than a standard cruise control system. 

With DISTRONIC Pro, the system can bring you to a complete stop when traffic gets too heavy. For shorter stops, you’ll be brought up to speed automatically as soon as the path clears. If the stop lasts longer than three seconds, you’ll have to reactivate the system manually.

DISTRONIC Pro vs. DISTRONIC PLUS® with Steering Assist

Depending on the Mercedes-Benz model that you choose, you’ll receive one of three different versions of the DISTRONIC® feature. Here’s what you should know about each:

• DISTRONIC Pro stays active, even if your speed drops to zero. In general, while DISTRONIC® might be offered as a standalone feature, DISTRONIC Pro is usually offered as part of the Driving Assistance package.

• DISTRONIC PLUS® with Steering Assist offers even more advanced convenience. In addition to controlling your speed and follow-distance, this technology keeps track of road lines and limits, along with other vehicles in your periphery. If you start to exit your lane by accident or try to merge into an occupied space, the feature will intervene to keep you centred.

The price includes the fitting service at our location in Bristol and the new steering wheel controls.

This system can also be offered for other Mercedes Benz models.
