Boost your energy levels while driving

After a long day in the office, your Mercedes and ENERGIZING COMFORT can transform your journey home into a unique wellness experience. Choose one of the five comfort programs – "Refresh", "Warmth", "Vitality", "Joy" or "Well-being" – and your Mercedes will create the right set-up to enhance your well-being. To do this, existing features such as ambient lighting, seat massage, air conditioning and many more are combined to boost your energy levels as you drive and ensure that you reach your destination feeling relaxed. As well as relieving your tiredness when on the move, your Mercedes can also actively help you relax while you are parked. You can use the multimedia system to find out how to relax your muscles, for example. If you have an electric vehicle or a plug-in hybrid, you can use the recharging breaks to boost your own energy levels by taking a power nap. The "Power Nap" program helps you fall asleep and wake up by moving the seat to the correct position and creating an ideal atmosphere with light, sound and fragrancing. Fall asleep and wake up again with your Mercedes – at the push of a button.

Note on use

The program descriptions apply to the driver. Some parts of the programs may differ for the other vehicle occupants. You can directly activate the recommended ENERGIZING Comfort Program.

Your personal fitness and wellness coach

There are moments on the road when an invigorating massage or a refreshing break would be just the ticket. With the ENERGIZING COACH on board, your Mercedes gives you individual program recommendations through software-based services. Additionally, your Mercedes may not be able to read such needs from your eyes, but it can do so based on your vital signs (Garmin® wearables).
To do this, it firstly analyses current trip and vehicle data – such as the traffic situation, weather or trip duration. Secondly it can take account of your current physical and mental state, this is made possible by linking with compatible Garmin® wearables (smartwatches/fitness trackers). Once linked, the ENERGIZING COACH selects suitable fitness or wellness experiences for you, which you can launch directly.

Note on use

This requires your smartphone to be connected with the vehicle as the main phone. Additionally, you must ensure that the compatible Garmin© wearable has been connected to this smartphone via the Garmin Connect© app. As soon as you have consented to the data transfer as part of the "on-boarding process" within the Mercedes me App or on the Mercedes me Portal, your data will be transferred directly from your wearable to the vehicle by Bluetooth. Further information about this can be found in your vehicle's owner's manual. If the service is active, recommendations via notifications on the Multimedia Display can appear as early as 10 minutes after starting the vehicle. It can however take from 21 to 105 minutes until the first notification appears on display depending on the situation. Once the service ENERGIZING COACH is activated on the Mercedes me Portal, the system will give recommendations to support well-being within your car. The heartrate information is not influencing the recommendation. But based on the heartrate-variability and other information that is available within your Garmin account on the Garmin backend, and an intelligent algorithm integrated in the Garmin wearable that is measuring the heartrate information, the actual and individual stress-level (scale 1-100) is calculated. The recommendation is based on this stress-level information next to other sources of information such as sleep duration, weather information and vehicle data such as driving time. You can still receive recommendations even if no fitness-tracker is connected. ENERGIZING COACH does not change the vehicle behavior.
