Yes it really does what it says on the tin

I bought a Pedal Commander for my 2014 Mercedes Benz C-350. After trading in the 2010 C63 AMG, the 6-cylinder C-350's performance seemed a little underwhelming. Well I can say that Pedal Commander has solved this problem, in Sport + mode it really seems to have MORE power than AMG. To be honest, I leave it in City mode most of the time for my daily commute and switch it to Sport mode when driving a long stretch of highway (Eco mode is too weak if I want something without power or the answer is I would buy a Ford Focus 4 cylinder). The Sport+ is just ridiculous, almost intimidating, the only time I use it is when I'm showing my car to friends on a deserted country lane, the car is almost bloody uncontrollable. An interesting observation is that the instantaneous acceleration in Sport+ mode angers the automatic transmission a bit, the car's computer just wasn't designed for such fast acceleration. It starts jerkily, doesn't shift at all, shifts twice in quick succession, downshifts are difficult. You pretty much have to use the paddles for any kind of steering. So if you've got a Mercedes that feels a bit underpowered, or (God help me) an AMG and want even more power, Pedal Commander is definitely worth a look.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Obsolete model
