I doubt that a German company is doing that. In addition spinning up a new car is a multi billion dollar enterprise and for 50 years Mercedes have released “the car of the future” in the shape of the new S class. Automotive journalists routinely call it the best car in the world and it’s where innovations start to trickle down from.

Chrysler built their biggest hit vehicle on obsolete mid-range Mercedes technology they were able to borrow.
