Some people will definitely need that parking assist due to how large the GLB is
One of the most notable interior features of the GLB, however, is the Mercedes-Benz User Experience (MBUX) in-car personal assistant, which works closely together via the GLB’s seven-inch touchscreen. It can take commands via voice and it can set up calls and many other important activities without needing to touch your phone and taking your hands off of the steering wheel.
