Mercedes-Benz mbrace PLUS Package Features

2016 Mercedes-Benz mbrace PLUS package

The mbrace services in the new Mercedes-Benz vehicles adds an enormous amount of value to your vehicle by integrating mobile, web, and vehicle applications to the driving experience. Beyond the mbrace starting package, you can add mbrace PLUS or Mercedes-Benz Apps or both. An upgrade to 2016 Mercedes-Benz PLUS package features Personal Concierge, Family Driver Monitoring, and Advanced Travel Assistance.

The mbrace upgrade costs $20 extra per month, but a 3-month trial is given with all new and pre-owned Mercedes-Benz purchases. Most notably included in this upgrade is the Personal Concierge. This function connects you with a live agent with resources to help you stay productive on the road and can assist with almost anything at any time of day.

Family Driver Monitoring is also included in the PLUS upgrade. It features a driving journal to keep track of where your car goes, alerts for when your car leaves a designated area or drives too fast, and a curfew minder to make sure the C-Class gets home on time.

Last but not least are the Advanced Travel Assistance features. Route Assistance can guide you to virtually anywhere on planet Earth and includes over 15 million points of interest. Location-Based Traffic can help you avoid getting stuck in traffic by giving you voice updates. It will use your immediate location and can also check for traffic updates on routes previously entered into the vehicle. This same technology is used to provide weather updates.

The upgrade to the 2016 Mercedes-Benz mbrace PLUS package features will bring the total monthly bill to an estimated $45. It is worth it though because what you spend in dollars, you will get back double in convenience and peace of mind.
