Curious about PDC option...

...how come the US market doesn't offer front sensors like Europe?

Cause there is less need for it? Maybe? Not sure...

To bring the US price lower, maybe.

Remember, litigation has replaced baseball as the US national sport.

I think it's based on crash test results and overall safety.

Is this just a BMW thing? I see Mercedes got the parking sensors in the front no problem.
