Facebook, Yelp and Google will be incorporated into Mercedes-Benz's 2013 line, the car maker announced at CES Tuesday. The features will be standard in the MY13 SL-Class, in a features package known as Mbrace 2, which launches in the spring.

While accessing Facebook while driving sounds unsafe, the company says features requiring text action are disabled while driving.
