More comfortable than which other car?

I've driven lots of cars and nothing beats the comfort of a premium German station wagon such as a Mercedes E class for long trips followed by Volvo ones.

A model Y or 3 are in a very different tier of cars.

Everyone likes Volvo, but I continue to find them very underwhelming. Mercedes is good, but they have really fallen behind the other German manufacturers in many ways.

A Model 3 is decidedly in the middle, I'll grant you, but it has adaptive cruise and lane centering, which makes long cruises effortless.

But before I'd take a Mercedes E class or any other station wagon, I'd take an F150 King Ranch ;-). Truly that is the land yacht of the modern era. Inefficient, expensive, but there aren't too many cars more spacious or soft for cruising down the highway. In the US, obv.

That's all stuff that Mercedes cars have since decades?

The first radar-based dynamic cruise control was implemented on the 1999 W-220 S class. Mercedes cars had lane centering and even automatic lane changing since 2013.

Even today Mercedes is the first and only manufacturer to offer level 3 automatic self driving.

There's lots of things that Mercedes has been doing wrong in years (design wise especially, but engine choices on AMG models have also been questionable lately) but the safety and comfort of their premium cars (E class and upwards) is still at the top end of the industry.
