Mercedes-Benz brings state-of-the-art multimedia system for the V-Class to the region

Updated vehicles are now available now in showrooms in the region and Mercedes-Benz says the voice control system can recognise almost any sentence

Mercedes-Benz has followed up its 2019 V-Class facelift with the integration of the intuitive and self-learning MBUX (Mercedes-Benz User Experience) multimedia system in the V-Class.

Updated vehicles are now available now in showrooms in the region and Mercedes-Benz says the voice control system can recognise almost any sentence, activated using a button on the steering wheel or by saying Hey Mercedes. In addition to this, the voice control system is also capable of learning.

“We are excited to introduce the sophisticated MBUX multimedia system to our V-Class models. Digitalisation and connectivity are important components of our product strategy. By integrating the MBUX multimedia system familiar to Mercedes-Benz cars, the V-Class becomes even more compelling,” says Serkan Sarikaya, acting general manager and head of sales of Mercedes-Benz Vans Middle East and North Africa (MENA). “By integrating the MBUX multimedia system familiar to Mercedes-Benz cars, the V-Class becomes even more compelling.”

MENA drivers can pick either the MBUX Entry which is equipped with a 7-inch display and touchpad or the MBUX Mid which adds the navigation system.

Individually desired functions and features can additionally be specified such as a larger 10.25-inch display, smartphone integration package and Burmester surround sound system.

According to Mercedes-Benz’ notes,  MBUX combines learning capabilities to provide predictive functions, to anticipate what the driver would like next.

“For example, if the driver often calls home on the drive back from work, the driver will receive a prompt on the display to place the call. Various infotainment settings can be configured individually and stored in a profile, as many as eight profiles can be created, ideal when the vehicle is used by more than one driver.”

MBUX can also be controlled using the high-resolution, 7-inch or 10.25-inch touchscreen central display or the touchpad on the centre console.

When the navigation system is fitted, touch gestures can be used to enlarge or move the map, making it easier to gain a precise view of the route ahead or explore the area. The touchpad also recognises handwriting, for inputting telephone numbers or addresses.
