Mercedes-Benz has teamed up with Apple Music. The auto maker will integrate Apple Music into the Mercedes me connect service “Online Music” and the MBUX infotainment system.
After linking a Mercedes me account to the vehicle, Apple Music subscribers will have access the streaming service. Drivers can also say “Hey Mercedes” using the MBUX voice assistant from the steering wheel control. Or they can do this directly on the display to request songs, albums, playlists, or radio stations.
This built-in integration will be available to new C-Class and S-Class owners with start of production this month. It will be available to EQS owners this summer. Existing C-Class and S-Class owners with the latest generation of MBUX can enjoy the Apple Music integration with an over-the-air update later this year.
I believe it would have been so much better if MB would just have stuck to Spotify.
