## Summary

Mercedes-Benz CTO Jörg Burzer says the company launched L3 too early and will drop Drive Pilot from the updated S-Class, focusing on L2 driver assistance and then L4. BMW has also removed its Personal Pilot L3 system from the updated 7 Series, citing insufficient consumer demand to make the business profitable.
