Comfort.

Thanks to LINGUATRONIC, the A-Class Saloon obeys your every word. It actually understands you without having to learn commands beforehand. And it talks to you. What about reading out text messages, or dictating and sending them? No problem. It checks the weather at the destination for you, changes the radio station or takes you home via the fastest route. It takes only two words – "Hey Mercedes" – and the A-Class Saloon is all ears.

With the A-Class Saloon and MBUX (Mercedes-Benz User Experience) a little more is possible. Consequently, you are not only able to adapt the ambient lighting to your mood, but also configure the display styles in the instrument cluster and on the multimedia system display. Completely individually and intuitively, for instance using the Touch Control buttons on the steering wheel.

MBUX, the new Mercedes-Benz User Experience, introduces artificial intelligence into the A-Class Saloon. It learns more every day, and most of all gets to know its driver more and more. It can remember your favourite songs and the way to work. It then automatically selects the right radio station or shows you a faster way if your usual route is congested. All by itself and as a matter of course, if you so wish.

Imagine you could operate an entire car with your little finger. Perfect, don't you think? Then let us introduce you to the touchpad that gives you control of almost every feature, for instance the navigation system or ambient lighting. The touch-sensitive surface can even identify your handwriting with ease. Make it even simpler and more straightforward with the touchscreen. Just one swipe and it all clicks.

You will automatically have your eyes on the road with the head-up display in the A-Class Saloon, because it projects all relevant information - such as speed, speed limits or navigation information - directly into your field of vision. Virtually and in full colour. Adapt the contents of the display field and save your preferences using the memory function.

In the A-Class Saloon you can charge your smartphone by placing it on the centre console. Simple, without the need for cables and based on the Qi standard. And best of all, thanks to Near Field Communication (NFC) your smartphone links up with the A-Class Saloon immediately, with no need for you to go through a long process or to enter a code.

Gain completely new insights with the A-Class Saloon. Into the road, for example. The system uses a special camera to illustrate the surroundings as a moving or still image on the multimedia system's display - in an innovative and informative way. It supplements virtual objects or markings and thus facilitates finding your destination. Totally intuitive and pretty intelligent.

Sending text messages or scrolling through contacts is also no problem at all. In the A-Class Saloon you can use your smartphone without having to pick it up. Use USB or NFC to connect it to the vehicle. Then conveniently control almost all apps and functions via the multimedia system display using the Touch Control buttons on the steering wheel. It's like magic and so simple.
