Who has a good memory and passion for the brand Mercedes, you may remember that a year ago was presented the new version of the Class V, which was renewed in the design of the front, available in new combinations of body colours and upholstery and equipped with an efficient diesel engine OM 654 four-cylinder engine, automatic transmission 9G-TRONIC and a complete range of driver assistance systems. These innovations have also affected the camper-van, Marco Polo, and Marco Polo’s HORIZON, destined to become even more compelling.
Now you can order them in combination with the multimedia system with MBUX, intuitive interface with self-learning function. Not only. Available in series of Mercedes-Benz Advanced Control (MBAC), an innovative form of interface that transforms the compact camper van of the Star in a house on wheels, fully connected.
“the Digitalization and connectivity are important components of our product strategy”, explains has Klaus Maier, Head of Marketing and Sales Mercedes-Benz Vans. “Thanks to the integration of the multimedia system MBUX, already present on board of the cars, Mercedes-Benz, we were able to make more practical the dashboard of our minivan, and models of Marco Polo based on Class V. For lovers of camping, we thought then to another provided only one. We are excited to offer in the future Marco Polo with Mercedes-Benz Advanced Control of the series, which will allow our Customers to travel to the edge of a “smart home” on wheels. Passengers will be able to, that is, control from a single location the various components of the living area, such as lights or heating, for example from your smartphone”.
The central element of the multimedia system MBUX is represented by its intuitive concept of command and, above all, by its voice control system. This recognizes almost every possible sentence with reference to the infotainment and control of the vehicle. For example, phrases such as “Turn on the radio” and“Turn on the heating seats”. It is, moreover, able to understand phrases such as “I am cold”. The voice control system is activated by a button on the steering wheel or by speaking the keyword ‘Hey Mercedes’.
Apart from the voice control system, MBUX can also be controlled by means of the central display high-resolution 7″ or touchscreen 10,25″ or the touchpad on the central console. Through the touch controls, you can zoom in or move the displayed content, a feature that is particularly useful when you want more precision for the navigation map. The touchpad is also able to recognize hand-writing.
MBUX combines this mode of operation, intuitive and intelligent with the forecasting functions, which allow the system to recognize what is the next action that the driver would like to accomplish. For example, if on the way home the driver call regularly to ‘Home’, the display will be suggested to the phone number. All the settings of the infotainment system and the car can be individually configured and stored in a profile.
The Marco Polo with MBUX and MBAC will be presented in preview on the occasion of the CMT 2020 (an acronym for Caravan, Motor, Touristik) in Stuttgart, Germany. The Salon will open its doors from 11 to 19 January.
