Toyota hybrids have had that feature for years. Seamlessly smooth, most of the time the driver cannot even feel it happening.

I had a GLA250 loaner car a few weeks ago with that feature. It was pretty herky-jerkey, not smooth at all. I think there might be a huge future market for starters, flywheels, and engine mounts if MB doesn't make substantial improvements in the way this works.
