Premium 1 package in E300 Lusury model

Hi

I am interested in buying the E300, I want as little auto driving and auto anything as much as possible. I worry about being hack. Is Premium 1 subjected to hacking?

1) What is Active Parking Assist; Blind Spot Assist; Rear Cross-Traffic Alert? Other than parking assist, is the car going to steer for blind spot assist and cross traffic alert?

2) Is the suspension ACTIVE suspension that you can adjust for sports, comfort setting? Or is it just basic non adjustable suspension?

Thanks

1) All cars are subject to hacking. Even older cars with a remote unlocking system can be hacked. That doesn't mean it is easy or practical to do so.

2) The features are described in detail under Premium Package 1 on www.mbusa.com.

3) The driver adjustable suspension is the optional Air Body Control.

Correct me if I am wrong. From searching around, I found:

1) Premium 1 only active steer in parking assistant. All the other mode just limiting to braking, even the lane crossover alert is limited to braking on the wheels of the opposite side. No steering involve.

2) There is no air suspension in the Luxury model unless it's listed.

Thanks

While there has been some debate as to what "driver adjustable" means, there is an intermediate option with steel springs and adjustable shocks/struts, which is the same as I have in my coupe.

Air body control is a $1,900 option with the luxury model. It is listed under the performance & safety area on the build you own web page.
