Mercedes-Benz Vehicles, Concept Cars, and the Mercedes Lifestyle

Mercedes owners know that quality matters. They won’t settle for just any car, and they won’t settle for just any phone, either.

Take, for example, the iPhone. Apple’s iPhone device is, like the Mercedes, at the top of its class. It integrates PDA functionality, MP3 player capabilities, and cell phone service, all in one stylish little package.

It’s no surprise, then, that Mercedes has released a cradle connection for the iPhone.

The new cradle, released this fall, is available on all Mercedes models, except A-Class, B-Class, CLC-Class and G-Class. The cradle is more than just somewhere to put your iPhone, however.

When inserted into the cradle, the iPhone automatically connects to the vehicle’s antenna system for receiving radio programming. Once connected, either the phone functions or audio functions on the iPhone can be activated via the controls on the multi-function steering wheel. Meanwhile the vehicle display is used to indicate the phone status or music functions and information such as the track title and artist.Also, the cradle automatically recharges the iPhone battery when the phone is sitting in the cradle.

This is the kind of feature-rich integration you’ve come to expect from Mercedes.
