Navigation Package

Takes you directly to the next available parking space

The troublesome search for a parking space – stressful for the driver, avoidable traffic build-up for local residents. The Available Parking Spaces Digital Extra locates available parking spaces for you in multi-storey car parks and on the street. If you decide on a spot in a multi-storey car park you will receive information such as opening times, prices, payment options and the height limit of the entrance. For parking spaces on the street you will receive information on the size of the parking space and the time that has elapsed since the space became available.

See the weather coming

Get ready for the weather at your destination even during the trip – the Weather map Digital Extra shows you on the map where it's currently sunny, cloudy or raining. Then just tap on the respective weather symbol for further information about the forecast for that area.

Be prepared for any weather, wherever you go

On your way to the mountains, you plan for a break at an idyllic lake. You’ve packed the swimwear and planned the most beautiful route in advance – now only the weather has to play along. Your Mercedes knows if you can expect sun and pleasant temperatures: MBUX "Weather forecast" shows current weather information and forecasts on the media display. You choose the locations for which weather data is displayed – your current location, your destination and any other location of your choice.

Navigate straight to points of interest at any location

Where is the Skytree in Tokyo? How do you get to the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco? Your Mercedes knows the way to all the must-see attractions on your city break. You start the Local Search by voice command ..."Hey Mercedes, take me to the Louvre in Paris" or by entering information via the central controls. Save your search results or start your navigation system right away. This way, you can find any point of interest with ease.

Finds the fastest route to your destination every time

On your well deserved weekend outing you are making good progress on the motorway when all of sudden everything comes to a grinding halt – you're in a jam. It is situations such as this that make you wish you had a means of foreseeing traffic situations and taking timely evasive action. Live Traffic Information makes precisely this possible: Your route is modified automatically by reference to current traffic information, and you can continue your journey on less congested roads. Your arrival time is updated dynamically so that you know exactly when you will reach your destination. You stay on the move and can make the best possible use of your valuable time.

Safe and anticipatory driving with the aid of information from the connected network

On a trip in the mountains you're suddenly confronted with an icy patch around a bend and only just avoid skidding out of control. Everyone has experienced such unsettling situations, which pose a major risk in road traffic. Thanks to Car-to-X Communication you can see such hazards coming and react in good time. Vehicles equipped with this technology communicate with each other, so that information is relayed to your vehicle and you, in turn, also keep other drivers informed. You are warned by a marking on the navigation map and, where appropriate, by a spoken announcement. This way, you reach your destination safely, and without any unpleasant surprises.

Always on track with up-to-date map data

Time before heading off on holidays is at a minimum and you still have to go to the workshop to have your navigation data updated? Such time-consuming map updates are a thing of the past with the Online Map Update. You can conveniently update your map material via mobile communication or download from the Mercedes-Benz profile. In this way, you can always be sure that you will reach your destination via the best route.

Your advantages at a glance

With up-to-date navigation maps, you will reach your destination quicker and you will be more relaxed, too. And the Online Map Update also makes updating the map data simpler because a visit to the workshop is no longer required. All you need is a Mercedes-Benz account and a link to Digital Extras for your vehicle. Then select a map region on the Mercedes-Benz profile and the navigation map data will be updated automatically via mobile communication. Otherwise you can update your maps manually, for example if you are planning a trip abroad and would like to update the map material for individual countries or regions. In this case, you can conveniently download the required map material via the Mercedes-Benz profile and subsequently install it in the vehicle using a USB stick or SD card. Please turn on the ignition to do so.

User note

The system setting "Automatic Online Update" must be activated for the automatic map update. The map region that contains your country of residence is pre-set on the Mercedes-Benz profile.

Real-time data for the best route

Many ways lead to your destination. Your Mercedes-Benz knows the best way to get there. For this purpose, the navigation system is fed with real-time traffic data from the cloud. Should the prevailing conditions alter and a different route become a faster option, alternatives will be presented directly in the navigation system. You can opt for a different route either by simply selecting it in the navigation system or by driving directly along the new route in order to activate it in the system.

More details for more clarity

You like to know in advance what to expect at your destination. Does the nearest rest or service area have nice surroundings? Where exactly is the entrance to the hotel car park? At which building entrance is the best parking spot for an upcoming appointment? A look at the navigation map will tell you.

Your advantages at a glance

To use the Satellite images, simply set the appropriate marker in the navigation settings. The Satellite view will then be superimposed on the standard navigation map. The geodata is provided as normal when calculated routes are displayed. To explore new landscapes, towns or cities from above, you can also move around the map as you please.

Notes on Satellite images

A navigation system and GPS reception are required in the vehicle.

No need now to let traffic restrictions get in your way

Your Mercedes informs you about traffic restrictions, ensuring that you reach your destination in the best way possible. If there are traffic restrictions on your route, you are informed about these and receive an alternative route to avoid the area. For this, please enter your registration number when activating the Digital Extra, and your Mercedes will inform you of restrictions automatically.

Share anticipation

You are on your way to see friends – a long-awaited visit. For more connectedness, let your friends know where you are and when you will arrive while you are still on the road. You can share your live position and your estimated time of arrival via the navigation system. That way, everyone who is supposed to know knows when the reunion is approaching.

Your advantages at a glance

Within the route overview, select the option "Share trip" and indicate with which contact you wish to share your route. Contacts are selected via a link to your smartphone. As soon as you have selected a contact and the desired duration of the transmission, the system sends a text message* via your smartphone. This text message contains a link to a protected website, where the recipient can find out your live position and estimated time of arrival. You can stop sharing at any time while driving.

Notes on Shared Navigation

A mobile phone must be linked to the multimedia system. In the Bluetooth settings of the mobile phone, the synchronisation of contacts and the display of notifications must also be permitted.
