Mercedes-Benz to launch new battery-powered CLA in China. Mercedes-Benz plans to launch a new battery electric vehicle (BEV) model in China featuring an advanced driver-assist system (ADAS) jointly developed with Chinese AI-based autonomous driving technology firm Momenta. Mercedes-Benz was the first international automaker to invest in Momenta, back in 2017. After years of collaboration, the German automaker plans to launch a model in China featuring an ADAS system based on Momenta’s Flywheel Big Model. With the ‘Mercedes-Benz Standard’, we are integrating Mercedes-Benz’s century of engineering excellence with Momenta’s cutting-edge AI technology.
