The car features an all-new AI smart cockpit led and independently developed by Mercedes-Benz's China R&D team. Its in-car virtual assistant incorporates the Doubao AI large language model, and new features include voiceprint recognition. The system also supports major OTA updates every quarter and will gradually be fitted to more gasoline-powered and all-electric models in the future.
According to Mercedes-Benz, the all-new AI smart cockpit is closely tailored to the habits of Chinese users:
The digital twin 3D vehicle model closely reproduces details of the actual car's configuration, such as its color, displays the status of doors, windows and other parts in real time, and lets users operate functions such as the windows and sunshades directly through the model;
The flexible interface lets users freely rearrange cards in the navigation bar and shortcut bar;
Apps such as multimedia and calling can be displayed in multitasking pop-up windows.
Integrating the Doubao AI large language model and its interaction capabilities, the Mercedes-Benz virtual assistant supports naturally varying tones and speech patterns for humanlike emotional expression. Its wake-up time for the all-scenario “see it, say it” feature is as fast as 0.25 seconds. Users can operate on-screen buttons and text directly by voice and open or close third-party multimedia apps by voice. Its accuracy in recognizing and locating interactions across multiple voice zones reaches 98%.
Voiceprint recognition can distinguish among family members. Each account can store voiceprints for up to 6 users, and the virtual assistant can create a memory board for each user, record their preferences, and make recommendations using information such as the weather and time.
The new cockpit adds a scene assistant. Users can combine options from 11 types of triggers and 15 types of actions to customize vehicle-use scenarios.
The new in-car system's Amap navigation has a moving frame rate increased 4-fold to 60 frames per second. Huawei HiCar has also been added: after the first pairing of a HiCar-compatible phone, it can automatically reconnect when the user gets back in the car, and HiCar apps can also be operated through the Xiaoyi voice assistant.
ITHome noted that the car still uses a 2.0T engine plus a 48V mild-hybrid system.
