Mercedes-Benz is taking in-car productivity to the next level through an expanded collaboration with Microsoft. Mercedes-Benz is the first to integrate a suite of cutting-edge Microsoft tools and services directly into their new inventory vehicles, enabling drivers to work more efficiently while on the go. Car shoppers in Lubbock and other cities across the region can look forward to experiencing these innovative features in upcoming Mercedes-Benz models.
The cornerstone of this partnership is the enhanced Meetings for Microsoft Teams app. With the updated app, Mercedes-Benz customers around Amarillo will be the first to participate in Teams video calls using the vehicle's built-in camera, even while the car is in motion. Don't worry - safety remains the top priority. The video feed is not visible to the driver to prevent distraction. The app features an intuitive interface with a new dashboard, providing easy access to upcoming meetings, expanded chat capabilities, and seamless integration with voice controls and the vehicle's calendar.
Another game-changer is the integration of Microsoft Intune into MB.OS, Mercedes-Benz's new operating system. This enables an ultra-secure, enterprise-grade mobile workspace for professionals in Clovis and beyond. With Intune, users can safely access their business apps and data, while IT admins retain central management of access rights and security policies. It's like having your office on wheels while traveling around Plainview.
But Mercedes-Benz isn't stopping there. They are also collaborating with Microsoft to integrate the power of generative AI into vehicles via Microsoft 365 Copilot. Drivers in Amarillo will be among the first to use advanced voice prompts to summarize emails, look up client info, and manage tasks hands-free while driving. Copilot transforms the vehicle into a third workspace to boost productivity near Clovis.
According to Ola Källenius, Chairman of the Board of Management of Mercedes-Benz Group AG, "Through our industry-leading collaboration with Microsoft, we are making it even easier for our customers to stay productive while on the move. By integrating the latest Microsoft workspace tools, such as Microsoft Teams, directly into our new operating system, MB.OS, we've created an intuitive and safe user experience that boosts efficiency and reduces distractions at the same time."
The rollout of these revolutionary features will begin with the fourth-generation MBUX infotainment system powered by MB.OS, debuting in the forthcoming CLA model. Dumas drivers can experience the future of in-car productivity and connectivity with Mercedes-Benz.
