Options we don’t get in US
Maybe I should say things we cannot downgrade.
Interesting how different markets allow you to spec the car to add or remove so many different features.
I randomly watched this video (don’t know which country it is from) and I could see:
- smaller infotainment screen with physical buttons for climate
- smaller instrument screen with huge bezel around
- manual adjustment for seats
- manual sunshades for the second row (don’t understand why we can’t have them)
- apparently no vents in the back (in Europe you get controls for the back seats)

There’s many lower spec options that you can get on small engine cars in Europe because MB is less of a luxury brand.

Those are options that are missing from cars due to the chip shortage that are either supposed and used to be standard (USBs and hands free access) or part of a package (wireless charging and sound package). This thread is about options that were never even options in the US market that are options in other markets.

my build sheet shows a credit for Hands free access to trunk. Fingers crossed I get all my USBs since there isn't a credit.

If you didn't select the 72B Advanced USB package and don't have D9F Credit for missing 75B Standard USB Package you'll have three USB ports I believe.
