Mercedes mbrace®

Mercedes-Benz enthusiasts have one main thing in common: a love of luxury features and exclusive packages. Until it was discontinued in 2022, the Mercedes mbrace® subscription package delivered superior driving experience; however, vehicle owners shouldn't mourn its sunset. The new Mercedes me connect has filled its void, taking luxury car technology to the next level. If you're looking for a local car dealership, Mercedes-Benz of Houston Greenway is ready to help you find your next car.

What Is Mercedes mbrace®?

For many years, Mercedes mbrace® delivered a luxury driving experience. It provided drivers and passengers with robust packages of connected car services. These exclusive packages offered a range of features and functionalities. The packages were designed to enhance the driving experience and provide convenience, safety, and security. From Roadside Assistance Connection and SOS/Emergency Call support to the Mercedes-Benz Concierge who could help you navigate your route during rush hour along the many Houston highways, mbrace® technologies distinguished Mercedes-Benz from other luxury vehicles.

All of your favorite features from Mercedes mbrace® and many new technologies have been repackaged as Mercedes me connect. Car-to-X Communication, telediagnostics, and Information Call and me Call Services are just some of the new features that continue to distinguish Mercedes-Benz as a premier luxury car manufacturer.

How does Mercedes mbrace® work?

Vehicles equipped with mbrace® were connected with built-in communication and GPS receivers to enable communication between the vehicle and the Mercedes mbrace® system.

Think of mbrace® as a robust network. The communication module in the vehicle could allow the vehicle to send and receive information and respond to commands from the vehicle. Commands were driven by Apple and Android smartphone apps, a web portal and browser, or the infotainment system. Furthermore, Mercedes-Benz mbrace® could send information like location, vehicle diagnostics, and notifications to inform emergency services or roadside assistance.

Mercedes-Benz Concierge (now Mercedes Me® Concierge) can help you make dinner reservations or optimize your travel with location-based traffic tips and weather insights. The GPS functionality in both the former mbrace® and new me connect also supports turn-by-turn route assistance. 

The mbrace® entertain package delivered a full infotainment experience, from TuneIn Radio and iHeartRadio to Wi-Fi, internet browsing, weather, and more. You will find those same features when you subscribe to Mercedes me connect.

Key Benefits of Mercedes mbrace®

Vehicles that used to connect to Mercedes mbrace® can now subscribe to Mercedes me connect, so if you're in the market for a new vehicle or the last model year, our sales team is happy to help you get the package you need.

Remote Start and Remote Door Lock & Unlock

Mercedes-Benz drivers can start their Mercedes-Benz vehicle and lock or unlock the doors using an app. Connectivity features like these are available in most base packages.

Vehicle Tracking

The security package enables vehicle owners to track the location of their Mercedes-Benz in real-time. This is especially useful in case of theft, but helpful if the car is loaned to someone else or managed by a valet service.

Emergency Services

In the event of an accident or emergency, Mercedes mbrace® could support automatic collision notification and would place a call to emergency services. By providing the vehicle's location for crisis assist, drivers and passengers were able to get the help they need without lifting a finger. Mercedes me connect doesn't miss a beat; it can also help drivers when they need it most.

Roadside Assistance

Packages provide drivers the help they need in case of a flat tire, fuel delivery, jump-start, or if they need their car towed.

Remote Diagnostics

Get access to vehicle information like tire pressure updates, the status of your electric vehicle battery range, and other remote diagnostics using the app.

Concierge Service

Mercedes-Benz mbrace® offered a personal concierge service that allows users to make dinner reservations, find points of interest, and get personalized assistance through a dedicated call center. It's the personal assistant we all need, accessed from the comfort of our own car, and you can still benefit from it through Mercedes Me® Concierge.

Wi-Fi Hotspot

Wi-Fi connectivity makes it easier for passengers to work remotely and stay connected while on the go.
