Does BMW Symbiotic Drive allow hands-free driving?

BMW Symbiotic Drive does allow hands free driving up to 85 mph when Highway & Commuting Assistant is engaged.

 

BMW Symbiotic Drive is not a self-driving system. Drivers still need to stay engaged and responsive with BMW Symbiotic Drive. However, it does form a more cohesive connection between the driver and the driver assistance features that helps create an easier more enjoyable driving experience.
