Tesla might be the loudest in the room when talking about driverless cars, but Mercedes claims it just beat Tesla at its own game. With a starting price at $105,450, it was ranked eighth for luxury electric vehicles (EVs) by Car and Driver, behind Lucid's Air, several of the Porsches, the Tesla model S and the BMW i7. While folks fawn over the Cyber Truck and the latest new EV, Mercedes has been hard at work developing the inside of its cars -- specifically, its autonomous driving capabilities.
