  Mercedes-Benz has historically stood out as a leader in the automotive industry. Now, the world-renowned German car company has another exciting announcement that sets it a notch above the rest. Mercedes-Benz is partnering with Liquid AI to bring a new level of technology and improved driver experiences to its vehicles in North America. The technology will be deployed in cars with MBUX, starting with third- and fourth-generation models. Voice control, contextual understanding, and functionality are key areas for improvement that this strategic partnership will deliver.
What Does the Mercedes-Benz and Liquid AI Partnership Provide?
Mercedes-Benz vehicles with MBUX, the automaker’s exclusive infotainment technology, may now also benefit from the Liquid AI partnership. Certain Mercedes cars with MBUX will now have enhanced, more personalized, and more precise onboard infotainment capabilities by incorporating cutting-edge AI technology into Mercedes’ unique system. The Liquid AI technology is designed to create a more seamless and intuitive relationship between drivers and their vehicles. One advantage of this technology is that Liquid AI improves speech and language recognition. Drivers and occupants can speak naturally, have their voices heard and understood without having to repeat themselves, and experience fewer errors in voice interpretation. Mercedes-Benz owners will be able to ask questions through AI technology, ranging from advice on where to dine, explore, or find lodging to more existential questions. For those concerned with privacy, Liquid AI is proud to offer a private driving experience.
What is MBUX?
MBUX is an infotainment package found in certain Mercedes-Benz models. This technology features a central touchscreen and control system that users can operate. The MBUX package includes a media display screen with touch-based functionality, audio connectivity, navigation, traffic information, internet functions, and mobile phone functions. With Liquid AI, drivers have easier access to the features available through the MBUX package, making it easier to stay connected, informed, and safe on the road.
Along with all the benefits of the powerful duo of MBUX and Liquid AI, Mercedes owners will be delighted to know that automatic software updates are also standard with this partnership. Over-the-air (OTA) software updates fix minor issues, keep software up to date with the latest version, improve maps, and more. Ultimately, the small corrections made through these automatic updates help keep drivers out of the shop and on the road without interruptions.
What Vehicles Have Liquid AI Technology?
Liquid AI technology will be offered in Mercedes-Benz models with MBUX technology starting in the 2024 model year.
