Driving Assistant Plus vs Active Cruise Control
So as I was building my F90 M5, I noticed these 2 features.... You can select either or... not both together...
I'm a bit confused because.... it says: Quote:

: this!
The hint is in the description ?This is facilitated by Active Cruise control with Stop&Go function, for example, which maintains a desired speed from 18mph, as well as controlling the distance to the vehicle ahead? Very very jealous of your dilemma though! You?re going to have a great car!

I have to say though, BMW has gone to some length to confuse customers, so they can charge more on all these options
I?ve specced Driving Assistant Plus in my order and looking forward to trying it out. I just don?t get the Driving Assistant package at all. Why not make it standard as you hardly get anything worthwhile given ACC comes standard. Marketers gone crazy |

Don't be jealous yet, I am far away from ordering but I like to plan things because without a plan, one would get no where... I had just bought my 2018 M4 Convertible Competition Pack so I am planning to get rid of it in the next year and preparing my M5 order from now

very nice. I have a 540i x msport and very pleased with it.
I have the driving assistant plus and use the features it offers. in fact I actually think that the lane assist on motorways gets all the attention but I think the traffic jam assistant is actually the better function of the two. For those boring bits of driving when you are sat in traffic, it will drive for you. With ACC and lane assist on it will follow the car in front even when there are no lane markings (must be using the stereo cameras instead) and not warning you about putting you hands on the wheel for what I believe is 30 seconds (from experience sounds right). All very clever. I can't imagine how powerful the M5 is going to be , I've only just passed 1200 miles today so gradually opening up the straight six and it's effortless and I'm not anywhere near close to it's potential! And the M5 has another ~260HP on tap! |
