The second generation A-Class, the W169, was officially presented at Mercedes' Stuttgart factory on June 28, 2004 and launched for sale in early September. It is designed according to Mercedes-Benz's concept of 'Touch And Feel' (TAF), boasting a multi-function steering wheel that places audio, telephone, and other system controls within easy reach of the driver's thumbs. Standard power steering allows the driver to control the vehicle with ease. Additional features, such as the COMAND APS navigation system, DVD and telephone functionality, and Parktronic system provide audio and visual warnings of obstacles, whilst a Light & Sight package with bi-xenon HID headlamps, cornering lights, Headlamp Assist, and rain sensor, assist in navigation when visibility is low. Whenever the car enters a tunnel or an underground garage, it goes into "tunnel mode" and all windows and the panoramic sliding sunroof close automatically. To provide relief during extreme temperatures, the car is fitted with a standard temperature control system featuring separate temperature settings for driver and front passenger, as well as a "Heater Booster System" that can quickly increase the temperature inside the vehicle.
