Using the Mercedes-Benz Voice Assistant is intuitive and straightforward. Begin by saying, “Hey Mercedes.” This activates the system instantly; no buttons are required. You can then ask it to adjust the temperature, turn on the seat heaters, change the radio station, or set a navigation route.  

You don’t need specific commands, either. Talk naturally, like you would with a friend. For example, say, “I’m cold,” and the system will raise the temperature. Say, “Take me to Starbucks,” it will begin navigating to the nearest location.  

The assistant can also read messages aloud, make phone calls, and answer questions like “How’s the weather?” or “Where’s the nearest gas station?” You’ll stay focused on the road while still staying connected.  

Updates to the MBUX (Mercedes-Benz User Experience) system in the latest models ensure even smoother, more accurate responses. Some models even let you personalize settings by profile, so your voice commands trigger your preferred settings each time.  

What Are the Key Benefits of the Mercedes-Benz Voice Assistant?  

• The biggest benefit is convenience. You can control multiple vehicle functions without taking your hands off the wheel or your eyes off the road. This makes driving safer and more enjoyable, especially on long trips or busy days.  

• Personalization is another standout advantage. Your Mercedes-Benz learns your preferences over time. It remembers common destinations, favorite radio stations, and even your climate settings. This creates a more tailored and seamless driving experience.  

• The voice assistant also reduces distractions. Instead of reaching for buttons or your phone, you can simply speak. This helps you stay in control while minimizing risks behind the wheel.  

• With cloud connectivity in the latest models, your assistant also gets smarter. It pulls real-time data to offer updated traffic info, parking suggestions, and accurate route planning.
