Mercedes-Benz will help revolutionize the digital passenger experience with its groundbreaking unveiling of the AI-powered MBUX Virtual Assistant at CES 2024 next month. This cutting-edge technology aims to elevate the driver-car relationship by introducing a hyper-personalized and intuitive customer experience both within the vehicle and beyond.
The MBUX Virtual Assistant transcends conventional voice assistance, taking the familiar ‘Hey Mercedes’ to an entirely new visual dimension. Utilizing high-resolution game-engine graphics from Unity, this advanced AI feature seamlessly integrates the intelligent systems of MBUX into a unified entity, presenting a fresh and expressive interface to the user through natural interaction. Developed to run on the Mercedes-Benz Operating System MB.OS, this virtual assistant is a key player in a suite of digital innovations to be showcased in January.

By leveraging AI, the MBUX Virtual Assistant offers a human-like interaction that includes empathetic characteristics synchronized with the driver’s style and mood. Combined with the proprietary MB.OS architecture, this approach is poised to redefine the future of digital luxury.
One of the highlights at CES 2024 is the North American premiere of the Concept CLA Class, a vehicle that provides a close-to-production glimpse into the future family of four vehicles. Built on the Mercedes Modular Architecture (MMA) and powered by MB.OS, this concept vehicle embodies the electric future of the brand. Additionally, visitors to the Mercedes-Benz booth at the Las Vegas Convention Centre will have the opportunity to witness the North American premiere of the camouflaged prototype of the electric G-Class, further emphasizing the brand’s commitment to an electrified future.
